Yoga with Jos
About Jos
Joslyn is a yoga and Insight Meditation teacher. She began practicing Ashtanga Yoga in the early eighties and was able to practice and study with some of the early Ashtanga yoga teachers in the U.S. including Maty Ezraty, Chuck Miller, Eddie Stern, and Tias and Surya Little. Joslyn completed her 200 hour yoga teacher training with Maty Ezraty at Yoga Works in Santa Monica, CA in 2002 and her 300 hour training at Heart of the Village Yoga in Manchester, VT in 2023.
She has been studying Insight Meditation since 2008. Her approach is greatly informed by her multiple Masters’ degrees in eastern classics, counseling psychology and depth psychology with an emphasis in somatic studies. Jos credits Donald Rothberg, Trudy Goodman, Spring Washam and Arinna Weisman as her sources of inspiration and motivation for sharing the practices of loving awareness with communities suffering from intergenerational trauma and systemic violence.
What People Are Saying
“Joslyn’s calm and nurturing manner readily sets all at ease. She is confident and knowledgeable along with being a listener and learner. Jos also brings playfulness and humor, reminding us all not to take our practice and ourselves too seriously.”
— Sue, student in Vermont
“Joslyn excels in her ability to create an embracing sense of safety in the personal meditation experience as well as in the communal meditation space. I am also appreciating the gentle and playful humor with which she teaches; this is a quality beyond the usual earnestness that enables me to find forgiveness in my imperfect practice. That’s a very supportive tool. Being her student is a thoroughly enjoyable experience.”
— Karen, client in California
“Joslyn is an inspiring and uplifting mindful meditation instructor. My husband, who has cancer, and I have been attending a weekly class led by Joslyn and we both feel Joslyn’s gentle guidance has brought us feelings of peace and ease and has helped us accept and address the difficulties of daily issues created by cancer. I truly feel calmer and happier after every class.”
— Lee, client in California
“Joslyn is a very dedicated mindfulness practitioner with extensive meditation retreat experience, and a deep commitment to applying mindfulness in various dimensions of daily life. She brings into all that she does a deep passion for learning and looking deeply.”
— Donald Rothberg, Spirit Rock Meditation Center
“Joslyn brings a refreshing and purposeful awareness of place and presence to role as a mindfulness teacher and facilitator. She applies a social justice lens to traditional insight meditation practice. Her work is always grounded in the attunement and connection that begins with truly seeing and accompanying those in front of you. ”
— Katie-Jay Scott, iACT
“Whether working with traumatized refugees in extremely challenging situations or facing 100 more privileged people at InsightLA, Joslyn is equally poised, effective, and at ease in the teaching seat. Her approach to teaching mindfulness and meditation is current, connected, knowledgeable, and profound.”
— Trudy Goodman, InsightLA
