The profound results she experienced connecting her mind and body through yoga led to a trip to India in the mid- 1990’s.

In 2000, she and fellow yoga teacher Joy Demsey founded the co-operatively run Yoga Connection yoga studios in Perth, Smiths Falls and Westport, Ontario. In 2008 Jill obtained her certification as a yoga therapist from internationally renowned yoga therapy expert, Gary Kraftsow at the American Vinyioga Institute. Jill is also a member of the International Association of Yoga Therapists. One of Jill’s interests is integrating the tools of yoga with her love of the natural world. Jill has worked with her husband Andy Fisher as an apprentice vision quest guide since 2004, bringing her skills as a yoga therapist to her work as a leader of wilderness rites-of-passage.
