Jennifer Buergermeister - Houston, TX

Jennifer Buergermeister is the founder of the pioneering Houston yoga studio Jennyoga located in River Oaks since July 2007. In the same year Jenny organized Breathe the Cure, Inc. 501c3. The word cure comes from the latin word cura which means to bring attention to or to care for; to heal. The cura mission defines bringing attention to the breath and wellness. Cura felt more aligned with our not-for-profit vision as we expanded into other neighborhoods in Houston. In 2010 CuraYoga in Spring Street Studios opened near the Heights in dedication to building breath-centered communities. CuraYoga and the newly formed Cura Co-op in 2011 is a community space that offers all levels and various styles of yoga including donation classes for families, caregivers and patients/survivors of disease. We also collaborated in June 2011 with Jeff Kaplan and Adam Brackman as a donation-only yoga space inside New Living in Rice Village on Kirby.

Jenny is also the current president and originating founder of One Yoga USA, the Breathe the Cure (BTC) Conference, Texas Yoga Association and Texas Yoga Conference. After completing two full degrees with honors in Psychology and Journalism at the University of Houston in 1999, Jenny began studying Transpersonal Psychology in 2002 at the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology in Palo Alto, CA. She completed her masters in Transpersonal Psychology specializing in Health and Wellness with an emphasis in archetypes and transitions through life’s stages and spirituality, and has passionately studied energy systems for 20 years including many traditional and nontraditional subjects such as sacred geometry, quantum theories and quantum healing techniques to synthesize what she calls PsycheSynergy: Synergizing the Heart with the Body, Mind and Soul; and Transgrief experiences.

Practicing yoga since 1992, Jenny has studied Hatha, Ashtanga, Iyengar, Vinyasa, Anusara and Forrest Yoga with Swami Vidyadhishananda Giri, David Williams, Robert Boustany, Jonny Kest, Shiva Rea, John Friend and Ana Forrest respectively.
