Meet Your Hosts:
Hi! I'm Jess - founder of Nova Retreats and a full-time yoga & fitness instructor.
When I was first introduced to yoga, I was drawn immediately to the way it challenges us both physically and mentally. My practice deepened after moving to Alberta, where I completed my RYT-200 teacher training under the guidance of a mentor who continues to inspire me today. Since then, I've continued my studies through Usui Reiki, Vinyasa, and Yin Yoga.
After years of teaching, I wanted to create something beyond the studio. Nova Retreats was born from a desire to bring people together through movement, nourishing food, and connection, creating space to slow down, reconnect, and simply be.
Hi! I’m Torrey - a Pilates instructor with a passion for movement, strength, and helping people feel at home in their bodies. I discovered Pilates during a pivotal chapter in my life, and what started as a personal practice quickly grew into a career I genuinely love.
I completed my Classical Pilates Level 1 and Level 2 certifications through Body Harmonics. What I love most about Pilates is it’s ability to cultivate a deeper mind-body connection, and help people build greater control within their bodies.
Today, I teach Pilates for all levels, blending challenge, curiosity, and encouragement to create a welcoming space where people can move with confidence, feel empowered in their bodies, and discover what they’re truly capable of.
