Jo is a multiethnic Kanaka Maoli (Native Hawaiian) serving as a steward of well-being through Yoga, Buddhist practices, and decolonizing wellbeing. A student of Yoga since 2000, she has found flow and purpose teaching Yogic practice and philosophy since 2007, primarily to marginalized or historically oppressed community members in Tucson, California, India, Dublin, Thailand, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and NYC (where she co-owned a center). Wanting to honor the Indigenous source of the philosophy/practice, her Yoga teacher trainings were primarily in India through the Sivananda lineage (as well as through Yoga Connection in Tucson, AZ). She is currently co-leading a yoga teacher training with Project Koa Yoga, centering Hawaiian culture and BIPOC and QTIA2SMāhū+ individuals.
