Over the years hundreds of Jiva students have participated in our yoga programs. Together we’ve enjoyed laughter, tears, and breakthrough moments. We love sharing their wonderful stories and experiences and invite you to read some of their stories and see how yoga has changed and enriched their lives.

Share your experiences. We’d love to know how we’ve helped you! Let your voice be heard....how has yoga changed you? Email us at: jean@jivayogacenter.com with your thoughts and insights.

I just want you to know that Jiva creates a space for me that is welcoming and luscious and I'm so appreciative of you and the rest of the family!

Thank you for establishing Jiva Yoga here on Hilton Head. Discovering Jiva’s sense of community in sharing the practice of Yoga one year ago has been a significant personal journey for me. Although very new to the practice/philosophy, I look forward to continuing this learning adventure with the help of your patient and most knowledgeable instructors!

I started going to Jiva five years ago for exercise. Now I go there for the love, support and sense of community. During my cancer treatment last year, Jiva really supported me. The instructors and the other students sent me texts, emails and messages. Ken even sent a beautiful video of Jean on a paddle board telling me she loved me. That and my yoga breath helped me get through everything. I’m 72 years old now and I’m kicking ass—mentally and physically. Some days I can do tree pose, some days not, but Jiva is about what you can do, not what you can’t do. I've always felt grounded in the game of life but this continues to fortify me and keep me grounded. I’m a happy duck thanks to Jiva.
