Our Mission
Centered Within Yoga offers an online, virtual yoga experience sharing a physiology-based, evidence-informed approach to wellness and healing which embodies an atmosphere of community, compassion, and support.
Why Online Yoga
Like many yoga studios, the covid-19 pandemic caused us to shift our practice and begin teaching online. With the associated economic fall out, high inflation rates, and increased cost of living caused by pandemic responses around the world, we decided to close our studios in Maple Ridge, BC and go fully virtual in hopes of keeping our services affordable and accessible to students everywhere. We are now proud to offer a variety of online classes and courses where you can connect with your teacher, ask questions, and get personalized help with your practice, all from the comfort of home! Our online Video Library takes your yoga efficiency even further offering a large selection of pre-recorded classes that you can enjoy anytime, anywhere, for only $10 per month. No gas, no parking, no costly studio memberships, and no time wasted in getting to and from class, allows you to stay home, save money, and still enjoy quality yoga instruction and an ability to progress with your practice and personal wellness goals, all without ever leaving your house!
Meet Erin Jacob - the founder of Centered Within Yoga
Erin Jacob has been studying yoga for over 15 years, and founded Centered Within Yoga in 2010. She found her yogic path after sustaining complex and debilitating injuries. She had lost the use of her arm, with a leg that was following the same path. She was suffering from multiple organ issues and failures. After years of chronic pain and being told that a life surgery, wheelchair confinement, and medication were her best options, Erin began her search to find a better future for her health, eventually finding therapeutic yoga, and with it, she discovered the capacity to heal despite the gloomy prognosis. This amazing recovery inspired her to seek out training near and far to help her learn how to share these healing gifts with others in need.
Erin is a Certified Yoga Therapist (C-IAYT) under the International Association of Yoga Therapists and is additionally registered under the Yoga Alliance as an E-RYT500 and YACEP (Approved Provider of Continuing Education for yoga teachers). With over 2000 hours of therapeutic training and over 19000 documented hours of teaching experience, she has helped thousands of students with a wide range of injuries and health conditions. Erin has found her true joy in life teaching others about the healing powers which exist inherently within us all!
