It all began with "Guru Heart Yoga" in 2004 (watch the video to hear more about that!)... In 2006 this transitioned into my expanded studio space "Crescent Moon Healing Arts" in downtown Port Hope. We became a hub of health, art, and fun! Classes, therapists, workshops, art, music, and live events frequented this community minded… Continue reading Origin Story | How “The Gentle Way of Hatha” Came To Be…

Why Online Yoga?
As a teacher who was forced to learn the online technology for yoga classes during the Covid Pandemic, I completely understand why people are hesitant to join online. I'll admit, when I went back to teaching in-person I was surprised how many students chose to not return and ended up preferring online classes! These are… Continue reading Why Online Yoga?

Welcome! My name is Jenni Burke and I am the founder of "The Gentle Way of Hatha." I am a certified yoga instructor who specializes in gentle yoga classes, and for over twenty years!

Signal vs Noise
Have you heard of this? I just learned about it last week, and it is changing my life and how I feel about business. This was the video I watched if you are interested in learning more for your own business: Diary of a CEO with guest Kevin O'leary. I had never heard of this… Continue reading Signal vs Noise
The Gentle Way of Hatha | Spring
Yoga Classes, In Person and Online Spring is always a strange time for yoga classes. Many people travel, or go away, and it has resulted in a lot of "partial" registrations. So, although the in-person classes are technically full, I often have drop-in spaces available on Wednesday evenings at 6:30pm ($20 per class). Online Yoga… Continue reading The Gentle Way of Hatha | Spring

The Gentle Way of Hatha | Summer
Today I did something I've avoided for a very long time... I started an Instagram profile for The Gentle Way of Hatha. When I first signed up for Instagram, I used it for all the things: yoga, art, mom life, nature... to capture all the things I love. However, I didn't like having "everything" so… Continue reading The Gentle Way of Hatha | Summer

Long Covid
It has been long in sooooo many ways. Since March 2020 my business has gone through the wringer! I have done my best to roll with all the lock-downs, restrictions, and vaccine passports. I transitioned to online classes, I tried to keep in-person classes running safely when we were not in lock-down, I have navigated… Continue reading Long Covid
