I am delighted to welcome Dawn Jenkins as a new presenter at the Aligned & Integrated Virtual Summit: Where Logic Meets Magic.

Dawn is the owner and founder of Upward Facing Dawn Yoga Studio, a boutique yoga studio in C**n Rapids, Minnesota. With over 20 years of dedicated yoga practice and study, Dawn created her studio as a home for Yoga Teacher Training, and it has grown into a vibrant space rooted in community, support, and genuine connection.

Dawn’s training is extensive and ongoing. She is an RYT-200, ERYT-500, and YACEP through Yoga Alliance, as well as an IAYT Certified Yoga Therapist. Her background includes hatha yoga, restorative yoga, yin yoga, meditation, somatics, philosophy, psychology, and reiki. Her teaching is known for its kindness, warmth, and deep respect for individual experience, with a strong trauma-informed foundation and thoughtful practice customization.

Class: Yoga Therapy for Aligning and Integrating

Yoga can be therapeutic in many circumstances. Yoga Therapy opens that possibility wider, making the work more purposeful and directly effective.

In this gentle and illuminating class, Dawn uses yoga therapy techniques alongside familiar movement and breath to support presence, awareness, and clarity. Participants will be guided to explore where they are right now, what they long to move toward, and how those aspects of self can be aligned and integrated. The movement is accessible and nourishing, while the self-inquiry invites meaningful insight and integration.

Optional 1:1 Session: Yoga Therapy Private Session

Dawn will also be offering private Yoga Therapy sessions as an optional add-on for an additional $20. These one-to-one sessions support deeper self-inquiry through personalized questions, practices, and practical habits that encourage healing on all levels. Whether you are navigating injury, physical discomfort, recurring patterns, or broader life experiences, these sessions offer a supportive space to explore whether Yoga Therapy is the right fit for your healing journey.

I am honored to have Dawn’s wisdom, warmth, and therapeutic expertise woven into this year’s summit.

My house has a laundry chute. Most of the time it's great. Sometimes things get stuck. After trying to push stuff around from the basement, failing to get it unstuck, I had an idea. If I took my 8' yoga strap, attached it to a kettlebell, made a loop for my wrist, and dropped it repeatedly from the top... SUCCESS!

Delighted to have a good use for my kettlebell.

Today I am delighted to have finished up a new dishcloth. It's not a very ambitious knitting project, but the process of knitting is relaxing, and a new dishcloth is always nice.
