Jeanette Gibson
Jeanette has always loved yoga, but up until recently she wasn’t able to truly embrace it in body, mind and spirit. Throughout her adult life, yoga was a way to alleviate the stresses that came with balancing raising two boys while being “all in” with her demanding tech career.
Now that her boys are grown and heading off to college, she has been able to dedicate more time to explore her passion for yoga. And after suffering a knee injury during the pandemic, Jeanette realized how much she loved and needed yoga in her life. The challenge of recovery and rehab brought her to considering, and then going “all in” with yoga. After some gentle, and perhaps even firm encouragement from her mentor Anuja Chaudhri, she dove into yoga teacher training. And now, Jeanette is thrilled to not only practice regularly at Almaden Yoga (often with her husband, who she successfully recruited into the fold!), but also to give to this wonderful community as a teacher.
