Yogi Jay (Jason Mazar-Kelly) is an experienced yoga teacher who has practiced and trained in various traditions, styles and lineages. He began practicing yoga in 2011 after years of struggling with moderate to severe OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder). After a year of daily yoga and meditation practice, the everyday impacts of OCD began to fade away. After years of struggling with OCD he finally found a long term solution and after just a year of practice, was able to let go of medication and was fully medicated on yoga and mindfulness based therapies. In going through this transformation, Jason was inspired to give back the gifts the practice had given him.
In 2014 Jason completed his 200 hour certification at the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health and has since then returned to Kripalu and other schools for advanced trainings and studies. Today he has thousands of hours of teaching and training experience and teaches yoga full time on Martha's Vineyard as well as leads workshops around New England.
The style of practice that will be offered during these session is a Hatha Yoga Hybrid practice where students work with both static and dynamic movement integrated with breath to facilitate release in not only the physical body but also mental and emotional bodies. And, you get the added benefit of doing all of that in the soothing presence of Alpacas!
Practiced for over 5,000 years, yoga is a total mind-body workout that combines strengthening and stretching poses with deep breathing and meditation or relaxation.

Some recent comments: "Yoga with the Alpacas was so much fun! Definitely will be back to do it again!" - Lisa
"Such a fun side trip for us to explore farmland on Martha's Vineyard. A very therapeutic experience, the alpaca's are very sweet and docile and the staff went above and beyond to make this a great experience for everyone. Highly recommend the experience. You don't need to be experienced in yoga, we did extra stretches and moves as it's a basic yoga moves and all about being outside with the alpaca's in a farm setting. Also has a great gift shop." - Missi
