Jane’s House Studio in Saint Charles opened in January 2002, with a sincere mission of serving others and leading them to a more holistic way of living. Our beloved space has had a strong heartbeat and breath ever since.

Over the past two decades, our founder, Robin, has had the great privilege to train with many teachers, beginning with Ayurveda studies, formal Yoga training, and most recently, certification with the International Association of Yoga Therapists, as well as becoming a Certified Reflexologist. Her innate passion for both learning and teaching developed organically into a passion for training teachers, and in 2005, just three years after opening its doors, Jane’s House also became a Registered Yoga School with the Yoga Alliance, and we offered our very first 200hr Yoga Teacher Training.

Ayurveda is a system of healing from India that uses nature as medicine, both preventatively and curatively. It focuses on diet, herbal therapies, bodywork, and lifestyle to create conditions for optimal health. Ayurveda is personalized medicine, meaning that it uses a person’s unique story and history to create a specialized path and plan for healing. At Jane’s House Studio in Saint Charles, we offer many opportunities to learn about and practice Ayurveda, specifically to support the changes that arise with the seasons.

The purpose of meditation is for personal transformation: becoming a more conscious, peaceful and empowered human being. It is the experience of watching the functioning of your mind in a calm manner to gain insight into your own behavior. At Jane’s House Studio in Saint Charles, we offer different types and styles of yoga and meditation classes, including pranayama and kriya, explained in more depth in the following paragraphs.
