YOGA THERAPY ROOTED IN ENERGY, BREATH AND CONNECTION
ABOUT ME
HI, I’M JOLENE. I was born and raised in rural Manitoba and returned home in 2023 after nearly twenty years in Ontario. I’m deeply grateful for my time away and how it shaped me, and I’m equally grateful to be back living a slower, rural life.
I share this life with my husband, our three kids, and dog Stella. The work I offer is rooted in connection—to ourselves, to one another, and to the natural world. I value playfulness, laughter, simplicity, and a child-like spirit as essential qualities for creating balance and resilience in both life and soul.
CERTIFICATIONS AND EXPERTISE
I am a Qualified Yoga Therapist, graduating from Yoga Therapy Toronto in July 2023 in the lineage of Sri Krishnamacharya, through the teachings of his son, T.K.V. Desikachar. My training was completed under the guidance of Felicia Pavlovic and Ante Pavlovic.
I also completed a 300-hour Advanced Yoga Instructor training in 2020, and a 200-hour Yoga Instructor certification in 2017, including Children’s Yoga Instructor training.

"“I loved working with Jolene Knight. She created a customized yoga therapy plan that met me where I was at and I found huge benefit. Her approach is kind, patient and gentle. I still go back to her flows and suggestions. Looking forward to more yoga with Jolene!"

"“People don't know how badly they need their own yoga therapy practice under the guidance of Jolene, a yoga therapist. I've been practicing yoga for years, but this yoga therapy thing is a different ballgame. What a miracle it is to intentionally be with your body in this way each day.""
-Kelly V.
""I have done Yoga off and on for many years but with Yoga therapy you can target a specific area that you need help with. Jolene will work with you and put together a routine that is just for you! It sure has helped me with flexibility and strength. I would 100% recommend Jolene to each and everyone."
-Sandra K.
WHAT MAKES YOGA THERAPY UNIQUE?
Yoga therapy is so much more than a physical practice. It is an energetic practice that works with prana—the life force energy that moves through the body.
Through intentional movement (asana), breath (pranayama), and meditation, the body is opened both physically and energetically to support the flow of prana where it is most needed, creating space for healing and balance.
Yoga therapy is a personalized, holistic approach, tailored to the individual and their unique needs, supporting the body, mind, and energy system as a whole.
Based in southern Manitoba, I offer breath-led yoga therapy focus group classes as well as private 1:1 and small group yoga therapy sessions, both in person and online.
