Interpreter Wellness Membership
Relieve pain and stress and boost your well-being. Nurture your complete wellness—mind, body, and heart for success in both personal and professional life.
Does this sound familiar?
I love interpreting, but I feel like I will become Quasimodo if I don't do something!
I just don’t know what to do.
How do I maintain good posture?
It's exhausting, painful and before long I'm back to slumping forward.
I feel like no one understands what my body goes through.
I want support from someone who gets it — someone who speaks my language.
Imagine
- You have a go-to routine designed just for interpreters.
- You have great posture at work - without having to think about it.
- You don't have that neck and shoulder tension

Hi, I'm Jen
HI! I'm so glad you landed here! It means you are looking for ways to take care of yourself better. You are who I was thinking about when I dreamt up Thrive.
I’ve been an interpreter for nearly 30 years, and I’ve experienced my share of repetitive strain, aches, and pains.
Throughout my career, how we, as interpreters, take care of ourselves mentally and physically was NEVER a priority, and it became a habit to push through. I see what happens to my colleagues when they put themselves last, or those of you who think you can do it all.
Things have improved. But not enough. That's why I am here, radically and rebelliously saying that your physical and mental health are essential and deserve to be at the top of your priority list.
For over 20 years, I’ve been teaching yoga and hold a Level 3 certification in Iyengar Yoga. I’m also certified by the International Association of Yoga Therapists, with thousands of hours of study and practice. Additionally, I’m a Level 1 certified Ayurveda Health Coach and a certified facilitator in PSCPI.
Now, I’m bringing this wealth of experience and knowledge directly to my interpreter community, helping you feel great in your body and build a sustainable career. Don't just survive when you can thrive!
I want to share practices that empower you to take control of your body and life.
I'm excited to launch Thrive so more interpreters can get the health, wellness, and support they so badly deserve.
Testimonials from fellow interpreters
"I did the shoulder video today. It was so incredibly helpful. I can’t tell you how much my wrist and hand have been hurting and I saw a noticeable difference just doing the wall exercises in that video".
- Jennifer Mantle
"What I love about Jen’s classes is the micro instruction; that even standing seems to be a workout because she is reminding us to mindfully hold our entire body in the present moment."
- Rebecca Rick
"Jen teaches like no other style that I've ever experienced and her teaching is just phenomenal…. I can tell that the change in my posture and how my body moves...and the decrease in pain…."
- Andrea Lochan

Got Questions?
It is the only program designed by an interpreter
This is not a follow-along program, you are instructed and guided with progressive steps.
It is not anonymous and I get to know you and guide you personally.
Iyengar yoga is a unique method of yoga that is progressive, precise and with an emphasis on alignment and mental focus. It is adaptable to all bodies and limits. If you have a limiting condition or recent surgery schedule a call with Jen to discuss
Yoga classes are fun, interactive, non-judgemental. Yoga is a tool for your health and wellness and I teach you how to use, modify, and adjust the tool so you get the benefit. Classes are instructive and inspire practice.
A yoga mat, a chair not on rollers, a wall, and a belt or long bathrobe tie and a blanket or pillow is all you need to begin. I like to use as little in the beginning and only what is necessary. Many things you can find at home. As you mature in your practice you might consider other props and I'll help you make those choices.
Props help the student get the benefit of the pose when the classic pose may not yet be possible. It's not the end goal, it's the process that is most interesting.
Group classes are taught in an auditory modality on Zoom in English. Visual modality of learning is offered in 1:1 format. Please contact me if you are interested in classes in another language.
