Marina brings her 30+ years of therapeutic bodywork, anatomy and physiology assessment experience to the class. She also shares her Doula knowledge and her training at The Farm with Ina May Gaskin into the Pregnancy Yoga classes. At times she may give hands on encouragement for alignment or influence a sense of surrender of the self to allow the pose to work effectively. If you have pain or injury or physical challenges and want to experience improvement, these classes may help you, especially for back, neck, shoulder and hip issues.

TESTIMONIAL: “Your classes and breathing exercises made my birth a breeze. Much to my surprise I did it all naturally and even found standing up during delivery more comfortable than lying. Your pregnancy classes were truly a major contributor and would highly recommend them to everyone. Thank you, Loral x”
“Humility starts to teach the mind and teach the body to surrender, to bow, and to have respect for the soul that has given life to the body. Humility is the key and foundation of yoga. It must be beyond the mat and in everything you’re doing. It eventually opens the doorway to love and to respect.
Respect is another aspect that is sorely missing in the yoga world today, because when you lack humility, you lack respect! Respect says, I honor you as the light within me. Namaste is the gesture of respect. It is a holy, sacred, and humble action of respect for yourself, the creator, and of another person. And when you don’t live namaste and really feel the depth, you are not living yoga.” - Savitri Palkhivala

In the deepest sense of the word “yoga” means union of your Soul with the Spiritual Being within you. It is not just a bunch of physically focused poses although this is what the Western concept of yoga has become...the classes give a little insight on the great practice of yoga. The Retreats offered allow for us to go much more in depth and explore the science of yoga.
