Jane Bahneman

Sometimes I tell my stories, but I actually prefer to tell yours instead.

StoryTeller...now that is a job title I could get used to. Since no one has offered me that role just yet, I decided to create it.

Welcome to the Blue Nectar Yoga Blog, better known as Subject to Change. Because I am, life is, and you most certainly are too...Subject to Change.

I am the girl behind the blog. My authoring credentials include the school of life and a lot of cojones to listen to my heart. With that sweetness comes finding failure sometimes too. It's all good. If more formal intros are your style, you can read below or visit www.janebahneman.com for the full deets. Who am I really? I'm a momma of a lil' man who is the love of my life! I'm a yogi; a lover of chocolate, running, and the ocean but not necessarily in that order. Time alone grounds me; I am capitivated and energized by my career. I thrive off of workouts, silliness, and close-as-can-be friendships. I believe I was born to create connections and community so I embrace that gift. Glad you've joined me on this wild ride and thanks for reading!
