What program(s) did you do with Jennifer?
I completed my 200hr Intensive Hatha training in 2015, 200hr Vinyasa training in 2016, and my 500hr Yoga Teaching Certification in 2018.
What was your life like before you took your training(s)?
Before my initial training, I was a fresh college graduate on the search for my first full time teaching job. This was the perfect time to challenge myself in the transformative journey that was an intensive YTT. I began teaching yoga almost immediately after completing my training.
What results have you seen in your own life and/or careers since taking Jennifer's training?
Taking Jennifer’s yoga teacher training and teaching yoga has made me a more well-rounded human in both my personal life and professional career.
What is your most important takeaway from the training you did with Jennifer?
My biggest takeaway from yoga teacher training was learning how to work on bettering myself in order to best serve those around me.
"Jennifer listened and responded to my likes and dislikes as well as created a customized blend that enhanced my ability to relax and engage in self care. This was especially important in a time of uncertainty and stress given the pandemic. It is a beautiful and effective scent. So much so that a neighbor tried it and had the same results. Thank you for sharing your talents."– Alyson L.
"I worked with Jennifer for a custom focus blend when I was studying to retake my board exam. The blend turned out amazing and really helped me focus while trying to study at home with 3 kids! I also passed my exam! Needless to say Jennifer is amazing and will work with you and your specific needs to get you the aromatherapy blend that is best for your specific circumstance. I highly recommend her services!"- Jaime C.
"My custom blending experince was wonderful! Jennifer took the time to thoroughly explore my concerns and thoughtfully created products that might help me. There is a lot of misinformation out there and working with an educated professional is the safest way to explore aromatherapy if you are new to it !
I loved my products and found them all very soothing for migraine, anxiety, appetite relief. For anxiety we made a diffuser blend. The migraine blend was a roller I used on my pain point--usually my temples but I also used it on my neck which tends to get tight when I am in pain. The appetite suppressant was an inhaler. I use the inhaler and diffuser blend daily. I only used the migraine roller as needed, but I have used it about 6 times now. I used the appetite inhaler in the evening when I have the tendency to eat mindlessly. I used the anxiety diffuser blend in the afternoons when things tend to get more stressful.
I think all three products were very effective. I was surprised how much the migraine roller eased my discomfort. The diffuser blend was a treat for me AND those around me. I got compliments at work of how soothing it was! I will definitely continue to use Jennifer as a resource. - Nellie C.
"Jennifer has a way of knowing when you are in need of healing, even when you don’t know it yourself. The Inner Wisdom® technique she created is a pathway to healing yourself through the intuitive and thoughtful guidance of the practitioner. Jennifer has been working with me since a slew of traumas finally caught up with me.
I’ve tried to work through all this grief and anxiety alone, but it never helped because I didn’t realize how ingrained into my psyche it had become. I am an artist, and oftentimes artists can work through their pain by creating art! Well, that hasn’t been the case for me, at least not as much as I needed. My creativity was suffering greatly from all the mental, emotional and physical pain wreaking havoc on my entire being.
Working with Jennifer to heal this chaos has been an eye-opening journey, and I am already seeing the benefits from just a few Inner Wisdom® Sessions. As I go forward with it, I know I will gain more insight and tools to help me get my creativity and my life back! "– Catherine M.
My husband and I had been dealing with the heartbreaking experience of infertility. That along with a very stressful work environment and the declining health of both of my parents, life had become more than I could take.
After several months of yoga classes, I approached Jennifer at different times about my issues with infertility. She suggested that I try Inner Wisdom® Yoga Therapy. Medical intervention was not working and I was willing to try anything. After my First Inner Wisdom® session I felt inspired.
About half way through my 8 Inner Wisdom® sessions and 2 weekends into practitioner training I found out I was pregnant. Medically it was the most unlikely time for it to have happened. I truly believe that Jennifer was brought into my life for many reasons. I am so happy I paid attention to the messages I was given. Over the past year and a half I can say with all honesty she has had a hand in changing my life simply by being a patient teacher, a discreet and compassionate practitioner and maybe most importantly a loving friend. – Kira T.
"Hi Jen – I am writing this message to you because I want you to know how much I get out of your class every week. I have some issues with anxiety, and Deep Stretch is incredibly helpful. Sometimes I feel like your class is designed just for me! So thank you so much! It helps me stay centered and focused on staying calm and letting go." - Long time student
"[Jenn] You are magical. I don’t know what you do differently in deep stretch, but I can’t even remember ever feeling like the way I do today. It’s like I woke up with a different body and soul. Thank you!!! "– Steve V.
Jenn, I loved your Yoga and the Moon workshop so much. It inspired me to finally setup a new altar! I haven’t had the space for years, so now that I finally do, this weekend I went out and bought a nice table for my bedroom and am starting a seasonally-themed space just for me to reflect, meditate, and recharge each night. I am also inspired by your lesson about doing certain yoga poses at different times of the month, and I’m already starting to pay more attention to the moon’s cycle. Thank you for sharing your wisdom! – Catherine M.
"I have thought many times over the past two years how thankful I am for you and your Teacher Training program. I consistently go back to our notes and handouts from TT and just think about how lucky I am to have gone to such a great yoga school. I always recommend you to anyone I know wanting to become a teacher.
You truly prepared me in every way possible to be the best teacher I can be. From asana, to homework material that I still use ie; release forms / questionnaire etc, to creating bhava and teaching in my own style. I quit my day job to pursue teaching full time in May and couldn’t be happier! Thank you for paving the way. Thank you thank you thank you" – Gina M.
Over the years Jennifer Langsdale has taken her incredible and it seems endless knowledge and devised a well-rounded, comprehensive teacher training program that is grounded and dedicated to the true roots of yoga. If you want an authentic experience, look no further than this studio and it’s many offerings. Along with a variety of educational opportunities there are also daily classes, workshops, and massages. I feel extremely blessed to have “awakened” my yogic studies here. – Amy B.
I dabbled in Yoga for many years and across many states because we moved frequently with the Army. When we finally settled in Ohio, one of the first things I wanted to do was find a Yoga studio and begin seriously practicing Yoga. I had such a strong desire to learn and was extremely fortunate to take my first class with Jennifer Langsdale. Little did I know that meeting her would not only develop into a nurturing teacher / student relationship but additionally, another long time dream of becoming a Yoga Teacher finally came to fruition when I enrolled in Jennifer’s 300 Hour Teacher Training Program.
Studying with Jennifer has provided me with a solid foundation of Yoga Study and Asana Practice. Her program is structured in a way that every class builds on the last and links solidly to the next. The program is designed to provide a balance between reading, lecture, assignments, and practice which promotes individualized growth and development in the study and practice of Yoga. The school setting is a soft, calm, nurturing environment. The curriculum provides a variety of topics and styles providing exposure to various practice styles and thought which helps the student develop a strong solid foundation. As a teacher, Jen is extremely knowledgeable yet flexible and understanding. She helps and guides each and every student develop their own personal and individualized style of practice and teaching.
She has high expectations of her students and motivates them to push their boundaries. At the same time, she is always open and understanding – ready to lend a helping hand. As one of Jen’s students, I only hope to be as inspiring to others as she has been to me. Preparing to branch out on your own can be a daunting concept but no one ever leaves Jen’s school for good. She is always ready to lend an ear or give advice, she wants her students to succeed. She provides ongoing training and classes to support graduates as they continue to learn and improve their craft. Jen’s passion for what she does is contagious. Sharing her love of Yoga is her unending gift of love, health, and wellness for body, mind and spirit, given freely with no attachment to one and all.

I am so grateful that I was led to this studio to take my 200 hour certification! I love Jenn so much,. Jenn was a phenomenal instructor and her love for yoga really shined through everyday! She made sure to give everyone personal attention and the classes went beyond asana to teach history, philosophy, anatomy and more. I learned how to improve my own practice immensely, while learning how to appropriately instruct others, while having fun! I was also given the chance to teach yoga at this studio once I completed my contact hours, which I am immensely thankful for. – Kara S.
Thanks so much for your support. In reflecting on the experiences of this summer, I am greatly impressed by the quality of instruction, the rigor of the course you have designed, and the wonderful way it has played out with the group (which I am grateful and proud to have been a part of). – Dick
Having the opportunity to study and train to be a vinyasa yoga teacher at Awaken yoga was the experience of a lifetime. My favorite part of training was the fact that I got to learn from Jennifer Langsdale the ultimate vinyasa teacher. Shiva Rea was my vinyasa idol and then I took classes with Jenn. There is no holding back with her…in order to teach you to become a good teacher she breaks down your barriers and gets you to your own essence. Authenticity is a word that is thrown around quite a bit these days but that is what you get with Jenn a true authentic experience…after taking a break from my vinyasa practice for pregnancy and caring for an infant I’m creeping back into my vinyasa…I look forward to getting back to Awaken for a class, a workshop…whatever I can get into. Awaken will always be a place of spiritual growth for me…making me a better yoga teacher. – Stephanie B.
Jennifer, thank you SO much. This was such an amazing experience and I LOVE Inner Wisdom® training!!!! This is exactly the healing method I was looking for in order to put my healing practice together. I really am grateful to you for everything and I’m so glad to have you in my life. You have been an amazing mentor and your words, encouragement and everything you have taught us often comes back to me as I navigate through life and while I figure out fully what I am meant to do for my career. I appreciate you very much – you have taught me a great deal and I will always be grateful for that.
The client I worked with that is fighting cancer has improved greatly physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. I want to thank you for putting together such an amazing healing technique that I believe in, and endorse, fully. You, my friend, are one of the pioneers helping to change how we see health and healing and I thank you for these tools to add to my dream of guiding people to reach their potential and to know fully their capacity to heal themselves.

I participated in the 2015 200 hour Hatha Yoga Training and the 2016 200 hour Vinyasa Yoga Training.
What was your life like before you took your training(s)?
I participated in my first YTT with Jenn when I was 21 and just graduated college, so needless to say, life was very much all over the place! I was certainly starting to dip my toe into the ocean that is yoga.
What results have you seen in your own life and/or careers since taking Jennifer's training?
Jennifer, and the experts she brought in, really helped me learn how to turn inward, manage my emotional, physical, and spiritual bodies, and taught me so much about yogic philosophy that I didn't know! These aspects certainly informed my life on and off the mat, and while everything is always a work in progress, I definitely found that I began to live with more presence.
