The Yoga Team

A little about us...

Isabelle Desnoyers - Founder (she/her)

Isabelle, a white woman, is standing in front of the pond at Mackinnon Brothers Brewing on a sunny summer day
"I founded Yoga at the Farm in 2018 after completing my 200 hour certification locally, after falling in love with the Farm's beautiful atmosphere and dreaming of bringing a practice to life in its space. It's been such a pleasure to watch the community grow over the years. Since starting Yoga at the Farm, I've moved to Bath, managed a yoga studio in Kingston, founded Artizen Oils, am diving into the study of Osteopathy, and continued working in the service industry. My classes have a strong focus on accessibility and curiosity. Expect clear and concise queues, plenty of space to check in, and a reminder not to take yourself too seriously. When I'm not at the Farm, you can find me nearby working in my garden, drinking coffee, walking Doug (my dog), or laying in a hammock listening to a podcast."

Sarah Anderson (she/her)

Sarah has been practising yoga for over a decade, after connecting with its healing capacity as a marathon runner. Yoga has provided the perfect yin to the yang of Sarah’s other favourite activities, including teaching group fitness classes for many years. Following the death of her partner in 2017, Sarah set out to live yoga off the mat and took her YTT certification in Hawaii. Life being what it is, this is Sarah’s first summer teaching yoga. Her classes are designed to meet you where you are, with accommodations offered for all skill levels and abilities. Sarah believes yoga is truly for all and that it is the journey of our practice—and our connection to ourselves and to each other when we meet on the mat—that matters most.

Jess Jenkins (she/her)

I have been practicing yoga for as long as I can remember, but really discovered a mind & body connection in 2017 after an unfortunate medical diagnosis. Since then and through my journey of healing, it has been my dream to teach others the practice of yoga and what it has to offer. 
I recently completed my 200 hour certification and have started an outdoor yoga practice for the summer months. My classes focus on breath awareness, connection of breath and movement, and are designed for all skill levels. 
When I'm not on my mat, I spend all of my spare time with my son, usually outdoors, enjoying nature!
