Meet your teacher
Dr. Jennifer (“Jen”) Yocum, L.Ac., RYT200 is a licensed acupuncturist, Reiki Master, and yoga teacher. Jen previously worked as a behavioral neuroscientist for 15 years, receiving her Master of the Arts degree in Experimental Psychology in 1999 and working at many prestigious institutions in the years that followed. She started her alternative healing journey by becoming a certified Feng Shui Consultant in 2003. Jen then began receiving acupuncture in 2005, and after seeing the incredible healing that was possible, she left science to become an acupuncturist. She received her Masters in Acupuncture from Tai Sophia Institute (now Maryland University of Integrative Health (MUIH)) in 2010, and her Doctorate in Acupuncture from MUIH in 2018. She continued on her healing path, becoming a yoga teacher in 2006, a reiki practitioner in 2008, and became certified as a Reiki Master in 2015.

In 2024, Fox Haven will continue to pay $2 from every ticket sale to the Piscataway Land Trust as a LandBack tax for the land Fox Haven inhabits. Land taxes to indigenous nations function similarly to paying rent or a home mortgage. Payments such as a mortgage provide access to living space, whereas LandBack taxes recognize our access to stolen Indigenous land.
About LandBack Tax
From 2022 onward, Fox Haven will donate $2 from each event ticket to the Kikeokan Foundation to pay LandBack tax, acknowledging our access to stolen Indigenous land. The Kikeokan Foundation is an Indigenous-led initiative working to restore ancestral land and sovereignty to the Piscataway and other Indigenous communities of the Chesapeake.
Weather Policy
If inclement weather is predicted ahead of an event, you will be notified 48 hours before the event date about any cancellation or rescheduling. Otherwise, the event is presumed to take place rain or shine. An alternative venue may be arranged if shelter is required. Please note that refunds are not provided for postponed events or no-shows. However, if Fox Haven cancels, a full refund will be issued.
