Jackie Shaffer leads meditation groups and offers meditation retreats and workshops at Sun & Moon Yoga Studio in northern Virginia. She began meditation in 1970, which in time, led her to the practice of hatha yoga. Jackie has taught yoga for more than 16 years. Her approach is nurtured by numerous insightful and awakened teachers, among them Erich Schiffmann, Sally Kempton, Adyashanti and Mukti. Jackie's reverence toward the mystery of life itself is her foundation. At Sun and Moon, Jackie mentors teachers within the In Depth Program. Her yoga is enriched by practices of Feldenkrais, energy medicine and qi gong. Building on a love of science and her practice of art making, Jackie's recent workshops include Yoga for Your Brain, and Color Meditation: Painting for Yogis.

aLex’s curiosity has been toward freedom, ease in her own skin, and the question of what is full, authentic expression. She teaches, directs the teacher training program of Sun & Moon Yoga Studio in Northern Virginia, and mentors her students toward their goals. She studies with beloved teachers who point to our formless awake nature and its infinite dance in form. Sharing yoga since 1998, she encourages direct experience of “always being, always becoming” blending Yin Yoga and Feldenkrais practice—where attention and ease, discrimination and presence, breath and stillness converge. From this perspective, she recognizes life moving through her as creative ideas, activities, and solutions in work and play; and as simple joy.
