Jaque Hanson, ERYT-500, LMT, is the owner of Bee Present Wellness. For 15 years, she cultivated a dedicated Kripalu practice, then kundalini yoga entered her life by divine timing and she enrolled in a nine-month teacher training in 2006. This powerful, detoxifying and transcendent practice became a cornerstone for navigating the intense initiatory gateways she faced, anchored in radical compassion and unwavering determination.

Since then, Hanson has taught kundalini and hatha yoga consistently, weaving her expertise with a variety of wellness modalities to support transformation. The deeply soothing and inviting atmosphere of “The Hive” helps students leave the challenges of everyday life at the door and enter a nonjudgmental zone of loving transformation. She says. “Multicultural sacred artifacts and the warm hearts attracted—like honeybees to this sweet studio—melt burdens away, allowing each person to be fully present with their own beauty and inner gifts with all levels. We also offer yin yoga.”

Classes provide a sensory tapestry of sound and texture using the gong, shruti box, harmonium, bells, crystal and Tibetan bowls, rattles and Native American flutes to guide students into deep, blissful states of inner stillness. “If you are ready to journey beyond the surface and embrace your wholeness, I will meet you exactly where you are—and inspire you to soar,” says Hanson.
