Jenny Friedel
President

Jenny took her first yoga class in 2000 but didn’t dive in deep as a student until 2011, when she began her yoga teacher training through YogaFit.  She became a certified yoga instructor (200 RYT) in 2013 and has been teaching ever since.   She is also a board certified and state licensed massage therapist, and in 2014, Jenny opened The Healing Table, LLC.  Through her work, Jenny seeks to give an overall experience that leaves you feeling rejuvenated and refreshed.   Yoga has played a big role in helping her provide her nurturing therapy to others and it has made such a difference in her daily physical and mental/emotional health.   She appreciates the strength and calm yoga brings to her mind and body. In her work, Jenny integrates the two modalities emphasizing optimal alignment and compassionate self care.   Jenny enjoys offering classes to people of all ages, from toddlers to senior citizens. 
In her spare time Jenny seeks out water of any kind, but especially loves swimming in Lake Michigan,  and her favorite summer pastime is to frolic in its splendor.  She also enjoys hiking/exploring, skiing and camping with her husband and two teenage daughters and spending time with extended family and friends.  She and her family make their home in Plymouth and she is thrilled to be a founding member of the Sheboygan County Yoga Co-op!

Jessica Kohn
Vice President

Jessica Kohn is known for her welcoming smile and non-judgemental approach when it comes to teaching yoga. She has been teaching in the Sheboygan community for nearly 10 years and has completed her ERYT-500 in that time. If you ask Jessica what her favorite classes are to teach she’ll tell you either yoga nidra or meditate, stretch, and restore. Her strength as a yoga teacher shines in classes that balance easy physical movement to allow you access to your inner peace. In her free time Jessica enjoys quiet time with her family, shopping at thrift stores, and she loves to cook.

Kaitlynn Kiela
Treasurer

Kaitlynn began practicing yoga at her campus rec center in college, but it wasn't until she traveled to India in 2008 that she began to understand the many aspects of yoga and its importance in her life.  Inevitably, she learned it's more than a physical practice, and ultimately goes beyond a mental exercise, and now it's a whole life practice, moment to moment, and the spaces in between.
Kaitlynn likes to create class environments where students feel comfortable learning their own strengths and weaknesses, and giving students a chance to be in collective stillness. She's happy to share yoga with anyone who asks and she's excited to grow with the local yoga community.
In her free time Kaitlynn enjoys plant life, cooking and making preserves, playing and listening to music, and spending time outside.

In her time off she enjoys reading, taking care of her cat, and traveling to France.

Deidra St. Peter
Board Member

Deidra began doing yoga in her high school years in group fitness classes at her local gym. She immediately found the peace and calmness that yoga brings to oneself something worth practicing. Throughout the years she became a Peer Health Educator at UW-Stout invested in the yoga and wellness portion to the job and graduating with a BS in Health Wellness and Fitness. A year after graduating she went back to one of her internships, a local yoga studio called Plymouth Yoga, and became certified through their teacher training program (YTT-200) in 2019. She has been teaching for the past 2 years with some time off since becoming a new mother. Today, she is Yoga Deidra and Co-Founder of SCYC!

Amongst yoga, Deidra is a mamma and wife to a beautiful little family in their home in Plymouth. She loves spending time outside, and going on adventures near and far with her loved ones.
