About Jinjur van Vogelpoel
Jinjur van Vogelpoel grew up near Portland, Oregon, and was drawn to the healing arts from a young age. She took her first Hatha yoga class at 16 and explored many styles of yoga before moving to Paris in 2010, where she found Ashtanga yoga. She spent many years travelling in Asia to study yoga and Thai yoga massage. She sees yoga and Thai massage as a daily practice of mental strength, flexibility and self-discovery. She combines this with Buddhist practice and philosophy as a basis for inner growth. She completed a 200-hour Yoga Alliance teacher training at Ashtanga Yoga Paris in 2015 and teaches there. She is part of the teaching team of Thai Massage Vacanza in Switzerland. There she leads beginner courses in Bern and advanced retreats, and co-teaches the New Year's advanced classes.
