about the perch
The Perch helps people rest, heal, and grow. Designed to be a resting place, we offer an environment to experience relaxation, renewal, reflection, and rejuvenation.
​
We believe in order to love and live well, we need to experience love, healing, and holistic health ourselves. Toward this end, we offer retreats, classes, workshops, groups, and resources to help you develop in these areas. You'll find that we're always adding to our calendar, so check back often to see our latest offerings. The Perch is led by Amy Jackson and located in the heart of Aurora, Illinois. We hope you'll join us soon for an event!
​
The Perch is an inviting, supportive, and healing haven for ALL. If you're LGBTQIA, know that you'll be fully welcomed and affirmed here. People of faith, of no faith, and everywhere in between are invited and welcome! We can all benefit from our unique approach to personal wellness.

Yoga is truly for everyone--even you! We'd like to show you how this ancient practice can help you through gentle movement, helpful breathwork, and more.
