JILLIAN WOODS
Business Development Coordinator
I’m Jillian Woods, and I live in Boise, Idaho with my family and have the fortunate gift of teaching yoga and sharing my work with my community. As a freshman in college I fell in love with yoga and carried my practice with me to Washington DC after graduating. I worked for E & J Gallo Winery from 2003-2011. I was in the leadership development program at Gallo and worked as a sales representative, district manager, fine wine specialist and field marketing manager for the winery.
In 2007, I obtained my 200 Hour Yoga Teacher certification through Sama Yama in Washington DC. In 2009 I moved to Oklahoma City and met my kindred friend and mentor Karen Prior, creator of Mamaste. Through Karen’s program I obtained my Mamaste Prenatal Yoga Certification and began teaching alongside Karen offering Mamaste Prenatal Yoga Classes to the Oklahoma City community. From there I continued my education with Karen and received my Postnatal Certification and Yoga for Women/Renewal Certification.
