Jessica Caplan Contributing Writer
Jessica is a certified sound therapist, vocalist, yoga instructor and meditation teacher based in New York City and the Hudson Valley. She creates unique yoga and meditative sound experiences, workshops, retreats and trainings that weave her passion for music as medicine with the individual’s innate capacity to heal.
As a babe, Jessica sang before she could speak. Music was always a rich part of her life, both privately and publicly. In 2002, Jessica became fascinated with yoga while living as a writer and performer in Hong Kong, and became a Vinyasa instructor in 2006, certified in Pure Yoga's first teacher training in Hong Kong. Jessica completed sound therapy practitioner training at the Open Center’s Sound and Music Institute in New York City, bringing together her love of music and the healing arts. She is a certified Reiki practitioner and Restorative yoga teacher, and continues her studies of yoga, sound healing, shamanic medicine melodies, voice and most recently, classical Indian music, with talented teachers and mentors.
At Pure Yoga in Manhattan, Jessica is known for her heart-centered Vinyasa classes infused with therapeutic sound and vocal improvisation, and her popular monthly sound bath “Sonic Saturday.” She has crafted soundscapes for classes and led workshops and sound baths at the Rubin Museum, ABC Carpet & Home, Maha Rose, Kula Yoga Project, Stanton Street Yoga, Yoga Shanti and Envision Festival in Costa Rica.
