Jenna brings such joy and passion to her teaching of the Sanskrit language and Patanjali’s Sutras. Sanskrit is a sacred language and vibrational in nature–and texts written in Sanskrit are more powerful when spoken with precision, clarity, proper pronunciation and intonation. Jenna’s mastery of these qualities is clearly evident as she conveys these concepts through every well-thought out lesson with us.

She never makes her students “wrong” nor makes them feel diminished for incorrect answers or pronunciation. This is all part of the natural learning process. We willingly raise our hands to participate–which is something that I never had the courage to do in any other language class in my life prior to this. I have also taught at the college level, and really appreciate what Jenna brings to the table as an educator.

She lets her students come to their own “aha” moments, and at their own pace. It is all very organic, and progressive. As someone who is self-taught, and has been chanting Sanskrit mantras and texts for close to 30 years, I am learning to refine my pronunciation and intonation of Sanskrit through Jenna’s patient repetition of the alphabet and Devanagari slokas over and over again until I hear and feel the refinements.

It is so incredibly rewarding to work with Jenna who leads us to the pool of knowledge, allowing us to dive-in; going deeper and deeper, feeling more enriched and satisfied after every classroom session.
