About

Jamie Schmiling

Owner of Roots Yoga and Healing, Massage Therapist,

Yoga Teacher, PH Sound Practitioner

I discovered a passion for mind-body wellness after taking my first yoga class in 2011, and it truly shifted the direction of my life. What started as curiosity quickly grew into something much deeper, leading me to leave my career in healthcare and pursue yoga teacher training in 2018. From there, I continued to expand my education in ways that felt aligned, becoming a Licensed Massage Therapist and training in Reiki, sound healing, restorative yoga, meditation, and

multiple modalities.

What excites me most about my work is the ability to support people in reconnecting with themselves. Whether it’s through movement, stillness, or therapeutic touch, I love helping clients find that sense of balance, calm, and awareness within their own bodies. Every service I offer is rooted in that intention—creating space for healing, both physically and energetically.

One of the most meaningful parts of this journey has been building a permanent studio space for Roots Yoga & Healing alongside my husband. We purchased and renovated a 1950s building in my hometown of Algoma, Wisconsin,

where my“Roots” are.

At Roots Yoga & Healing, I offer a variety of services including yoga classes, one-on-one sessions, restorative and meditation-based experiences, sound healing, massage therapy, stretch sessions, and Reiki. I also bring in elements from my background in healthcare and customer service, which helps me provide thoughtful, professional, and high-quality care for every client who walks through the door.

This work is incredibly meaningful to me, and I feel honored every day to be able to hold space for others on their

wellness journey.

Vickie Daoust

Chair Yoga Teacher

My name is Vickie Daoust, and I live near Brussels with my husband Arden and black lab Maddi. I have been a yoga student for 50 years and a yoga teacher for 8 years, mainly at the ADRC in Sturgeon Bay. I have 200 hours training in Sivananda Yoga and am currently training with Kristine Weber at Subtle Yoga online.

Why Chair yoga? It is a safe way to practice yoga and still benefit from what yoga has to offer. I incorporate breath work for the nervous system, movement to support joints and muscles and poses to improve health and well-being. And It’s fun! Chair Yoga can be a part of your toolbox to keep you healthy as you age. Things to help you enjoy my class: Wear comfortable clothing that has stretch, shoes are optional. During the entire class we will be sitting in the chair. I demonstrate and give oral instructions, making the movements and poses easy to follow. Yoga is not serious or competitive, so focus on enjoying what your body is doing and improve your inner awareness.

Vickie will be teaching Chair Yoga classes on Thursdays at 10am.
