WHY I CHOSE JOGA

MY JOGA STORY

After completing my bachelor’s degree in physical education and sports science, I worked as a gymnastics coach, swimming teacher, and group fitness instructor in Tehran. During and coached the national Iranian gymnastics B team.

Moving to Dubai, I became a physical education teacher in a private school for 5 years prior to landing in Vancouver BC where she settled and continued to develop her career. Throughout the past 15 years in Vancouver, I have maintained my certification with Gymnastics BC and have earned the respect and admiration of athletes and their parents as a competitive (Flicka and Balance) and recreational (West Vancouver Recreation Centre) gymnastics coach.

My love for competitive sports was developed in my youth as a champion on the National Iranian Gymnast team.

After suffering a knee injury and going through physio and rehab exercises to overcome my injury, I inadvertently took part in a JOGA (Yoga for athletes) class at Steve Nash Sports Club and discovered that it helped me to cope with my chronic knee pain. Recognizing I was an advanced student who exhibited a love for the classes, the instructor encouraged me to become a certified JOGA coach.  Shortly thereafter, I completed the coaches’ training and am now a certified JOGA coach.

TESTIMONIALS

“My name is Tyler Russell. I play hockey for the Los Angeles Jr Kings. I have been practicing JOGA for over 2 years. JOGA has helped me get stronger, especially with the strength in my legs. I really enjoy doing all of the JOGA exercises along with the salutation and the stretches. I consider JOGA a secret weapon because my body is in pain during the workout but I know that the pain is what will make me stronger. My JOGA coach, Carlie Chiovetti, is awesome. She is great at teaching all of the exercises and really cares that we are making improvements every week to help me be a stronger athlete.”

TESTIMONIALS

“When I started with Jana this past summer I noticed an immediate improvement in the way I felt physically. She paid close attention to the way my body was built and my strengths and weaknesses, allowing me to work on and improve strength and mobility that would immediately help me as an athlete. The work was very specific and tailored to my position. I’m very confident that it helped me on the ice when the season started. I’m looking forward to working with her again in the future.”

TESTIMONIALS

“JOGA can be an integral part of the off-season training of any athlete. It is important, however, to find an instructor who understands the demands of your sport and the strength and conditioning program. Jana and the JOGA staff have a done a great job of tailoring a program to meet the needs of my athletes and are willing and able to customize their sessions based on my feedback.”
