Out of all the guests I have had on Life An Inside job, Jess Glenny offers the most vibrant and intimate window into her inside life as an Autistic person. I gobbled up Ravelled Up in a day, Jess's book is a beautiful exploration of how it is to be a human in movement, in growth and in authentic presence.
Jess is a movement teacher, facilitator, therapist and writer about all things body. She teaches ashtanga vinyasa, still yoga and conscious dance, and mentors yoga and dance teachers. She has specialisms in hypermobility and complex trauma. Her books include The Yoga Teacher Mentor, Hypermobility on the Yoga Mat, and Ravelled Up: A Journey Into Embodiment. Jess is Autistic and welcomes neurodivergent people into her movement spaces.
