ABOUT US

A science-based yoga school set in the beautiful Okanagan, we are a Yoga and wellness education company. Yoga Science School was founded on a straightforward idea: that yoga education should be able to explain itself. Founded in 2015, and led by Jessica Nobrega, B.Sc., E-RYT 500, the school was built specifically for students who want the science alongside the practice.

Hatha Yoga, the “Discipline of Force”, is the root of all movement-based yoga, and can be applied to Vinyasa (flow), Yin, Ashtanga, or any other style of movement-based yoga.

We respect Yoga and teach it in a safe and science-grounded way: we were seeing people get injured in Yoga taught by teachers who didn’t understand anatomy or were more interested in the aesthetics of the posture than guiding students on a safe Yoga journey. This was a major opportunity for awakening and alignment and the Yoga Science School was born.

Aligned and aware. We are a group of experienced and highly qualified Yoga teachers, community builders, and devoted to supporting YOU.

You are worthy of this level of integrated education. Even if you never step onto the teachers path.

All trainings are accredited by the International Yoga Alliance.

 

“I have taken both my 200 YTT and my yin training with the Yoga Science School. Truly a life changing experience. Jessica and Josee teach with compassion and provide a safe place for learning and growth. They inspire and support their students through the entire journey and beyond. Our community of Yoga Science School graduates keeps growing and I’m so proud to be apart of it!.
