Lead Trainer
Jackie Anderson
About the Teacher: Jackie became involved in yoga nearly 20 years ago in Los Angeles, California. Jackie moved to Port Orange in 2008 and completed her 200 hour Vinyasa Flow certification. In 2018, she completed her 500 hour certification through Tymi Howard.
She opened Kula Yoga in 2011. She has a unique style of meditation throughout her practice and has a way to deliver complex messages in simplistic terms. Jackie's mission is to share yoga and a cleaner way of life mentally, physically and spiritually with everyone and anyone who is willing to listen.
Yoga has changed her life and her deepest desire is to share those teachings with you in hopes to change yours.

Our Students Say
“Happy Place Yoga Teacher Training with Jackie was a life-changing experience! Jackie inspired me to explore my practice and share with others. At the time I did not think about teaching, but with the support of the Kula community and Jackie I have been teaching ever since! If you have thought about expanding your practice this is the teacher training for you.” -Ann Brown, class of 2017
Robert Rose, Product Designer
"YTT with Jackie was a life changing experience. Not only did I feel prepared to guide a class through the physical postures of yoga (the asana), I also felt empowered to be a better version of myself and show up in life in a more authentic way. Unlike many YTT programs that focus primarily on the physical practice, Happy Place YTT goes deeper and addresses all 8 limbs of yoga practice. One of the things that made a huge change for me was Jackie’s encouragement for each of us to commit to a Yama or niyama to work on during our yoga teaching journey. For me, it was committing to the Yama of aparigraha, or non-hoarding … letting go of things that just weigh us down and keep us buried and stuck. Talk about an eye-opener! I will always see Jackie as “my teacher” and value my YTT as the foundation for the way I now approach all things in life. Six years later, I'm still in love with sharing yoga!"
Tammy Jacques, Class of 2018
The journey to becoming a yoga teacher is a deeply personal and transformative experience. It's remarkable that through the 200RYT online program, I’ve not only honed my skills but also embraced the solitary aspect of the training to develop my unique approach to teaching. The transition from student to teacher is a significant milestone, and Jackie's guidance has been instrumental in my growth. Her support has not only enhanced my teaching abilities but also led me to explore the harmonious world of sound healing. This certification in Therapeutic Sound Healing opens up a new dimension of wellness that I can offer to students, creating a holistic experience that transcends the physical practice of yoga. My gratitude towards Jackie reflects the profound impact a mentor can have, shaping not just my yoga and SHJ career but also my personal evolution. Thank You Jackie!!"

"I went through Kula Yoga’s Happy Place Yoga Teacher Training Program in 2019, which was truly life-changing for me. The training gave me the tools to deepen my own personal practice and the confidence to share yoga with others. I'm so grateful for everything I learned from Jackie and for the community that continues to inspire me every day. Teaching at Kula has been such a rewarding journey, and I'm honored to help others find balance and joy through yoga. I highly recommend YTT at Kula! 🌈🤸🙏"
Sam Dunman, Class of 2019
"I graduated from my first yoga teacher training at Kula in 2015. Since, I’ve taken many teacher trainings, and taught some trainings and accumulated thousands of classroom teaching hours in our magical Kula community. I have always been grateful that I took that first training at the Kula— it was the beginning of a journey that has only unfolded beautifully for me since. 🙏"
