Jinah Choi has been practicing yoga since 2013. She initially enjoyed yoga as a low-impact physical exercise and quickly learned that it provided a meaningful way to honor and connect with her body. Her journey deepened as she sought to explore yoga beyond the physical asanas, leading her to complete a 200-hour teacher training at Barefoot Movement in Oakland. She has also trained in trauma-informed yoga through Exhale to Inhale (16 hours) and prenatal yoga with Roxanna Smith (50 hours) at Indigo Yoga Studio in Walnut Creek, California. Jinah’s teaching integrates mindful breathwork, detailed alignment, and insights drawn from psychology, yoga philosophy, and Buddhist teachings. She continues to deepen her practice under the guidance of Tara at Inner Mother Yoga Studio in Seoul and is a perinatal yoga teacher apprentice with Leonora Willis at Daughter of Samoa in Oakland. Off the mat, Jinah enjoys Gong Fu tea rituals, attempting latte art at home, and staying active with strength training, pilates, gyrotonic, and golf.

Practicing yoga since about 2007, Amy Marcus joined Indigo as a student in 2022 and immediately fell in love with the studio's friendly community and welcoming energy. In 2023 she became pregnant and soon switched to Indigo's prenatal classes, where she found tremendous physical and emotional support throughout the ups and downs of pregnancy.

Amy began teaching prenatal yoga at Indigo in order to give back and support students through their pregnancies. Pregnancy is a unique, precious, nuanced phase in a person's life, requiring great care and compassion. Amy strives to bring both to her classes, fostering community with light and humor as well.

Amy grew up in Kailua, Hawaii, and has lived and worked in France, India, and Italy. With her international experience working in multiple languages, Amy enjoys connecting with students from all different backgrounds and supporting them on their unique journeys of becoming a parent.

In recent years she has facilitated conference sessions and workshops on climate action, international education, and supporting yourself and colleagues in grief. She is a co-host on the CANIE Climate Dialogues podcast, exploring the intersections of international education and climate action.
