How we started and where we grew
After many years spent dabbling in every fitness style known to womankind, Twist Yoga founder Jennifer Pahl literally ‘landed’ on the yoga mat with an injured shoulder and a body that can be described as anything but flexible.
It quickly became clear that yoga was more than just Jennifer’s personal passion — it was her calling. She wanted to share the incredible feeling of empowerment and presence she experienced from yoga with as many people as possible. She left her corporate career in finance behind to open Twist Yoga -a supportive studio providing yoga, meditation and functional fitness classes to the greater Portland community. Her students loved the in studio classes, but really wanted to be able to practice with the same amazing teachers from home or on the road. In 2018, she launched online classes at Twist Yoga Anytime.
When she’s not teaching, Jennifer can be found speaking at local events, writing for wellness magazines and blogs, traveling, and spending time with her two adult kids, husband, and rescue dog; Dante. She is also a Certified Business Coach with jcpahl consulting. Read Jennifer's interview with Oregon's Entrepreneur Network.
Twist Yoga & Pilates and Imagine Yoga become one!
In November 2025, Kristina Coco-Hackenjos, the owner of Lake Oswego’s other boutique yoga studio, Imagine Yoga, acquired Twist Yoga & Pilates.
This partnership brings together two beloved studios with the shared vision of creating a stronger, more vibrant community for all who practice with us. How sweet is that?
