About
Mara’s teachings are joyful invitations to explore the depths of yoga and yourself. With nearly two decades of teaching experience, Mara is certified in vinyasa, perinatal, restorative, and kids yoga styles, as well as meditation and yoga nidra. She facilitates other forms of personal development through shamanic journeywork, ritual, and ceremonial practices. Mara started her yoga practice after ten years of competitive gymnastics and was inspired by the book “Light on Yoga,” by B.K.S. Iyengar, where she found an internal landscape of connecting body and breath to create wholeness. When flowing and meditating alongside Mara, expect unique and spacious sequencing infused with energy. No stranger to the magic of movement, outside of yoga you can find Mara exploring the woods, dancing with her daughters, and swimming in the ocean whenever possible.
