I absolutely love Jennifer! She's funny, caring, and has serious passion for yoga. Graded on attendance, journals, and pre/post fitness testing, sometimes a short paper for the final. Easy A if you are dedicated to reading/journaling and really working hard in class. She will reward respect and commitment. Textbook and yoga equipment are required!

Comment:

She's a nice lady but very tough. She has you buy her $50 book and gives a lot of reading and outlining. Her class is tough if you are not very flexible and willing to put effort into it. She has you hold tough poses for a long time. Don't take her if you are looking for an easy PE class. She is tough.

Comment:

DeMarco is an awesome Yoga teacher. I love what I learned from her while taking the course (the breathing practice, movement practice, and beliefs). I can't stress enough, she is excellent. Only issue: for an exercise class, she assigned A LOT of homework, too much in my opinion. It's only 0.5 more units than any other ES course, but way more work.

Jennifer was an amazing yoga teacher!!! This was my first time taking yoga anywhere. You learn so much. She will correct you and put you in the right position too! She's so sweet. You need the book. Weekly journal assignments and an easy final. You'll get an A if you show up, participate and do the assignments!

This was my first time taking a yoga class and Jennifer made it awesome! She requires you buy a $45 book for the class, but I found they have the some book you can use for free in the library. (keep that in mind if you take this class)

Comment:

Professor De Marco is a phenomenal yoga instructor. If you have taken a yoga class you will be surprised to find that her class is completely different from others. She is very motivational and truly knows the roots of yoga as a discipline not only as an exercise class. I found it to be a little too expensive.

Her PowerPoint has the all the answers to her study guide. And the study guide definitely helps you with the test because the questions on the study guide will be on the test.

Awesome teacher!!! Taken several times and looking forward to taking again! Learn new stuff every semester and just keep improving and getting healthier. Have to do a journal and final paper, don't like writing but still good to use some thinking and learning about yoga academically and how to relate to life. Outside events enrich the experience.

Very enjoyable class if you are into yoga, or if you are just starting to learn about it. The lectures were interesting, and her style makes you feel at ease with not being perfect from the get go.

Such an amazing woman. She is helpful and her voice is so calm and warm. Great yoga instructor if it is your first time doing yoga. She will make you work out. Some class days you will be covered in sweat.

Comment:

I am not a huge yoga fan but took the class because a friend told me she enjoyed it. I think that Jennifer is good at teaching yoga, but she tends to get a little preachy about the spiritual aspect about it as well. She was great in explaining and demonstrating the positions of the exercise, but I wasn't a fan of the long lectures before and after.

Comment:

I took her class in the summer of "09" so I am a little late on commenting. She is an "amazing" teacher! She makes Yoga something that you want to make apart of your life if you have not before. Plus she's beautiful and has a body out of this world, and I'm a female! Anyway, take her class, she is a joy to be around! DEB

Comment:

She is a very good teacher, willing to help you find the proper poses and is very understanding when it comes to illness. I would recommend taking her class in the daytime because it's hard to build up the motivation to go do yoga for an hour once you've been out of your last class a couple hours.

She was a great teacher. You can only miss three classes and there was a final paper but the paper was super easy. She knows her yoga and can modify it for anyone.
