PROGRAM DIRECTOR JACQUELINE CHIODO
Jackie Chiodo ERYT 500, serves her local and global Yoga Tribe, as a Yoga Instructor, Certified Clinical/ Medical Hypnotherapist, Life Coach, and Ayurvedic Wellness Coach. Her purpose in life and call to service, is to help each individual wake-up to their limiting beliefs, and provide them with the knowledge and experience in order for self-healing, transformation and growth to occur. Jackie is passionate about nature and guides her students and clients to tune into the natural world for balance and well-being. Her love of nature and the elements is woven into her teachings and lifestyle through Ayurveda and the Chakra System.
Jackie asks each student to hold up a mirror and see themselves as they truly are, so they can see the world as it really is. She inspires students to meet themselves where they are and be honest with how they got here. She will encourage you to go deep and dream big and ask: Who do I wish to be? How do I want to be seen in the world?
She will challenge you to be accountable for how you show up and what you create in your life because of it. She inspires you to let go, clear the way, and awaken to the full possibility as you embrace the gift of being YOU. She reminds you of the power of your mind and how to use it as a tool instead of a weapon. Jackie’s programs have transformed hundreds of students in her past 20 years of guiding others into wholeness and wellness with the tools of Yoga, Mediation, Ayurveda and Hypnotherapy.
Jackie is a student of life and continues to evolve and adapt and educate herself in order to be of the best service to her community. Jackie has been leading yoga classes, trainings and retreats since 2001 and owned a successful yoga center in SW Florida for 16 years, which she has transferred online for now. She has a degree in Religious studies from Rutgers, University and is able to weave a deeper understanding from an academic perspective of spirituality and philosophy into this program.
Jackie integrates the power of intention and ritual throughout the training, translating the elements into the teaching of yoga and life. Jackie is fascinated by the power of the subconscious mind and in pursuit of her understanding, she became a certified clinical and medical support, hypnotherapist in 2018. She weaves the teachings of yoga and the power of the mind with Yoga Nidra and self- hypnosis, to expedite personal healing and heighten awareness of limiting beliefs being fed through the mind, nervous system and body. She connects this to the Chakra system and how it affects what we experience in life. She will guide you into the power of your own mind, where you have the knowledge and control to shift in a deeper way, to experience lasting results.
Jackie has been educating and guiding others into self-healing for over 20 years, with over 25,000 hours of teaching/coaching experience in Yoga, Ayurveda, and Meditation. She leads trainings, retreats and continuing education online and at Anamaya. She loves the jungle and will guide you to tune into the environment and allow nature to assist you in your quest for self-understanding, healing and transformation. Jackie has been leading her jungle tribes at Anamaya, since 2011.
She is a leader in the field of integrated wellness and is passionate about healing the world One Mind at a time.

testimonials
I am a graduate of Jackie Chiodo’s 200-hr teacher training. It was one of the most empowering, transformative experiences of my life. Thanks to Jackie, I learned that one of the healthiest, but also most challenging things we can do for ourselves is to just sit still. I also learned that yoga is much more than the poses. It’s a whole system of ethics, morals, psychology and acts of self-care. She taught us that everything we do in life is medicine: not just what we eat, how we move or how we sleep, but how we feed our minds and where we allow our thoughts to go. Jackie’s teaching style is direct, confident, thorough and relatable. She was supportive and compassionate during times of self-doubt, fear and insecurities. She believed in each one of us, and helped us to come out of the experience with greater self-awareness, resilience and connection, as well as with more peace, love and calm in our hearts. Thanks to her and her teaching, I am not only a better yoga instructor, but I am also a better person.

I am at a loss for words, when I think about all that Jackie has given to my Jungle Tribe! She inspired me, nudged me out of my comfort zone, encouraged me when I was scared, and kept me calm in stressful situations. I felt truly supported by Jackie throughout the program. She teaches from her heart and invests herself entirely in passion for sharing this wisdom. It is clear to me, this is her Dharma! Jackie is a bright light in this world and gives her students the gift of knowledge and love. I am amazed at the transformation she helped 30 students go through in only a few weeks. I am forever appreciative for all that Jackie has done.
