We envision a world in which all life is honored and respected. To do this the work begins at home. Cultivating peace & space within, sends a ripple of love out into the world. Together we bring about positive change.

Meet Kendra

Owner of Journey Yoga Studio,
200E-RYT/ 500 RYT, Massage Therapist

I am grateful for the inspiration & evolution that is Journey Yoga Studio!

My passion is to support others as they attune to & align their own body, mind, and spirit. By listening to the subtleties, we are better able to discover ourselves from the inside out. This mindset is embodied in the way I share yoga. Learning to trust our inner knowing can support our growth in infinite directions. Expansion is a beautiful thing!

I blend my knowledge of Athletic Training (BA), Massage Therapy (+15yrs), Energy Therapy (+5yrs) and Yoga (200 E-RYT/ 500 RYT, 7yrs) together to create empowering therapeutic sessions with my clients.

I am the mother to a beautiful girl who fills my heart with love, compassion and reminds me to laugh a lot!

I look forward to being a part of your journey!

Dedication. Expertise. Passion.

Janell Foust ND, Reiki Master, Herbalist

I love to see a yoga practice relieve stress and create deep relaxation. I love teaching to create a supportive community and hold a safe space for practitioners to grow physically, mentally, emotionally & spiritually.
“ Always learning. Always growing. Always a student.”
My 200Hr. RYT is in Hatha, Yin, Restorative & Vinyasa. My specialty is Restorative yoga, the practice of deep relaxation with many deeply healing benefits to the body’s nervous system. In my 7 years as a teacher, I have integrated my Reiki Mastery and developed a deeply healing Reiki Restorative yoga experience for my students. Since acquiring my 500Hr. RYT and completing my Naturopath Doctorate in 2020, I was inspired to create a new class yet again; a beautiful blend of Hatha, Yin & Restorative lovingly named Path to Zen.
I came to yoga later in life at the age of 50. During menopause, I lost my sense of balance.
Yoga helped me with balance and so much more...flexibility, de-stress techniques & finding stillness while learning to go inward.
I am a mother of 3 adult children, 9 sweet grandchildren, and 1 great grandchild. My passion is health and wellness. For many years I have studied/ used herbs and spices for myself and my family. I have greatly enjoyed my path leading me to become an Herbalist, Founder & Formulator of Lavender and Roses Clearly Holistic Beauty, Reiki Master, 200Hr/ 500Hr RYT & Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine.

I look forward to being a friendly guide on your journey!

Tre Ronne RYT 200/ High School Teacher

Yoga has brought so much joy, connection, and fullness to my life that it is difficult to express. This growth comes after two decades of dabbling with yoga, non-violence, and philosophy while at the same time I was being slowly dismantled by self-doubt, depression, and addiction.

The deep dive toward integration and authenticity began in a power yoga class in January 2019. The upwelling of joy in that one class was new and fascinating. For the first time in my life, it felt better to sit up straight instead of slouching, and my desire for alcohol was greatly diminished. By summer, I had signed up for teacher training at Ignite Yoga in Dayton, Ohio, and completed it by December.

Training was mostly to develop my own practice, to illuminate a path toward health, happiness, and wholeness. I am so grateful for the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual lessons I received at Ignite. Most importantly, training helped me reach a greater acceptance of myself and of life’s ebb and flow.

At the same time, the experience at Ignite also gave me the confidence to begin sharing with others what I have learned so far. Continuing to develop my practice in fellowship with others on this path gives me great pleasure, and I am looking forward to a lifetime of growth.

My current asana focus is on power as well as slower vinyasa flow, though I enjoy all styles and intend to add others to my teaching repertoire. I am also enjoying exploration into the other branches and limbs of yoga, integrating my prior training in non-violence through the Alternatives to Violence Project (AVP), my experience as a high school teacher, my background in legal studies, and my passion for building community.

Katie Kitchin Owner Barre Embrace

Hi, I’m Katie Kitchin, and I’m a Barre Addict! A proud boy-mom of three, I decided to take the plunge and try Barre as a way to get back into a fitness routine after having kiddos. Little did I know, Barre would be a life-changing journey for me! I have had the privilege of making new friends, reconnecting with old pals, and even learning of a new family member all along the way! I truly believe in the mission of Barre; women supporting women without comparison, without judgement, and with a lot of fun (and sweat!). If you come to my class, I promise lots of “fun activities” to burn that lower body, scorch that core, and work those arms! When I’m not at the Barre, I enjoy spending time with my husband, Mike, and three young sons: Grant, Clark, and Scott. You also may find me crafting, baking, antique shopping, or party-planning, some of my favorite hobbies. I can’t wait to spend some time at the Barre with you; together, we will sweat, shake, and SOAR!
Barre Beauties in Katie’s class go home with a stronger heart- she loves the cardio!

Alison Zajdel Barre-tender

My name is Alison Zajdel and I am proud to be an instructor of Barre Embrace! I grew up in Richmond and made my way back to town after graduating from DePauw University. I’m a mom of two awesome kids- Joel and Maggie- and am married to Kyle Zajdel who happens to be the best cook around. I worked in environmental education for 16 years before starting my own consulting business helping nonprofits navigate this crazy world. I love nature, my family, cooking and eating, and spending time in northern Indiana on the lakes. AND I love connecting with strong, amazing women in barre class whether it’s online or in person. I love this beautiful supportive community and encourage everyone to give it a try- you won’t be sorry.
Barre Beauties in Alison’s class can expect a lot of “classic barre”- thigh work, strength building, and always a plank at the end!

Tamara Brinkman Barre-tender

Hi, I’m Tamara Brinkman and I found barre (through Alison Zajdel’s mom, Mary Jo). I relocated to Centerville, from California. I moved here with my boyfriend Chris who grew up in Henry County. Barre has brought so many beautiful women into my life and given me so much more than I had ever thought I could get from an exercise class. It’s not just a class, we’re like a family! I have three dogs, 8 chickens (they all have names) and I work full time for United Way in Richmond. Some of my hobbies are cooking/baking, tennis or pickle ball or barre! I hope you’ll meet me at the “barre”!
Barre Beauties in Tamara’s class will enjoy lots of time at the mat- she’s our core queen!

Jess Sanford Barre-tender

Hello! My name is Jess Sanford and I have been “barre-ing” for a little over four years! I was a Dance minor in college, so being at the barre has been like coming back to my happy place! My husband, Ted and I live in Liberty and I have two sons; Logan and Cameron. I am also a proud goldendoodle owner, to Baylor! My hobbies include reading and boating (really anything on the water). I have four sisters that I talk to nearly every day! I work as the Associate Dean of Wellness at Earlham College and am about to celebrate 20 years of employment there! One fun fact about me, is that I discovered during my time with Barre, that barre beauty, Katie Kitchin is in fact my cousin (what a small world)!
Barre Beauties in Jess’s class will love her focus on strength building- she’ll have you sweating, shaking, and soaring!
