I'm super excited to be able to share what I have learned throughout these past few years and help new and experienced runners with their training!

Peggy Shaffer
My name is Peggy Shaffer. I began taking yoga classes almost 20 years ago. After several years, I completed my 200-hour certification with Evolution Power Yoga. I decided to continue learning and completed my additional 300 hours with Create Karma. Since that time, I have become certified in Chair and Restorative Yoga. I am currently earning my certification in Yin Yoga. My goal is to have yoga accessible to anyone, and I look forward to instructing yoga this year!

Jenn Azevedo
Hi! I’m Jenn. When I’m not in the Bowers Center teaching yoga, you may see me over in Community Living working on all things related to Housing and Residence Life. I completed my 200-hour yoga teacher training in May of 2020 and became a Registered Yoga Teacher (200RYT). I teach yoga to humans who are willing to humble themselves on their mat using centering, meditation, and challenging postures for the body and mind to give them compassion and pride in their practice to fulfill our collective purpose of empathy off our mats. You’ll find me teaching Vinyasa and Vin-Yin this semester!

My name is Jaime McNabb and I’m from King of Prussia, PA. I am a senior Occupational Therapy major, minoring in Human Services and Psychology. I teach Strength Training and Move-it at the Bower’s Center and I love connecting with the class members through a shared passion for fitness. I hope my class can be an outlet for people to relieve stress while becoming stronger!
