MEET OUR TEAM

Our IGNITE instructors bring extensive experience and diverse backgrounds to the studio, offering a wealth of knowledge in their respective styles for our inclusive adult yoga and dance community. We are thrilled to have such a talented team to guide you through your wellness journey.

Heidi was born and raised in South Africa. She relocated to Seattle 17 years ago with her family. Prior to her move, she worked as a high school PE and Social Studies teacher. Teaching people to be active and healthy is Heidi’s passion. She has coached high school dance, field hockey, swim teams, and mom-and-toddler fitness classes. In the past, she used to engage in various exercises but would regularly sustain injuries due to her competitive nature and lack of body awareness. Consequently, she took a few months off to focus solely on yoga. After attending her first power class, she became addicted to the physically challenging and restorative nature of this practice.

Heidi completed her 200hr Teacher Training with Shakti Vinyasa (Baron Baptiste Inspired Vinyasa yoga), recognized by the worldwide Yoga Alliance in 2014. She has since then added Yin Yoga and Myofascial release classes to her practice and teaching.

She is also a certified Girl Gone Strong Women Coaching Specialist. (GSS-1).

KAREN YANG

Vinyasa, Yin & Barre Instructor

Even as a young girl, Karen was always sporty, so becoming a “gym rat” as an adult was no surprise. Her love for all sporty activities included kickboxing, CrossFit, Olympic style lifting, bootcamp, circuit training, Zumba to name a few. She had tried yoga a few times but thought it was too boring so never really stuck with it…until years later when she tried yoga again and something clicked as she met a yoga instructor that really spoke to her heart. That was 12 years ago and she hasn’t stopped practicing yoga since!

After having her second child at almost 40 yrs old, Karen struggled with a massive weight gain, longer recovery from c section and postpartum depression. She turned to yoga to slowly recover and soon embarked on her Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) journey. She is a RYT 200 certified yoga instructor and also a Barre instructor. She strives to motivate and inspire others in all walks of life to become a better version of themselves, inside and out!

Karen lives in Fall City with her husband and 2 beautiful girls - a teenager and a toddler (prayers appreciated). She’s an active dedicated member of Church on the Ridge with a heart on fire for God. In her down time, she likes to vacation in Cancun, where her parents live, beach bumming and eating delicious Mexican food.

JEN GOOD

Vinyasa | Yin Yoga Instructor

Jen’s current love of yoga was slow to develop. As a personal trainer, she knew she had to add some stretching to her fitness routine and decided to give yoga a try. By regularly attending yoga classes it was not long before Jen could feel the wonderful difference it was making in her body, but she was not skipping to class yet. Then one day after class she realized something shifted, she felt light, happy, energized, and could no longer remember what was irritating her before class. That was when Jen discovered the “mind” part of yoga and truly became hooked.

After years of regular practice Jen decided she wanted to increase her understanding of yoga and share her newfound passion of yoga with others. In 2015 Jen earned her RYT 200 hour certification. Jen’s vinyasa classes move slow, focus on body alignment, and calming the mind. Yoga has firmed Jen’s belief that when you are truly ready and willing to be open to change amazing things can happen.
