My journey with movement began under the canopy of these ancient trees, where I discovered that true strength comes from stillness. Through years of practice and forest immersion, I have developed a style that integrates the rhythmic cycle of nature into every breath. Yoga is not just a series of postures, but a way to reconnect with our organic roots and find clarity in a bustling world.
the story
After spending years in and out of therapy for his own mental health struggles, Jake Sherwood found that for himself, and many others, talk therapy alone doesn't often create lasting change and sustainable growth. He worked with art therapists, yoga therapists, and somatic therapists. Through that work, he discovered three key points that have helped him create true and lasting change.
1. Yoga
2. Nature
3. Creative Expression
It is with those three ideas in mind that Sherwood Forest Yoga was born. It is Jake's mission to guide his clients to self-healing by providing individual and group experiences that combine yoga therapy, nature, and creative expression that teach each individual how to build the life of their dreams.
