For the past 25 years, Maria has been teaching in the public school system.  Her yoga journey began during a time that was not only healing for her physically, but mentally and emotionally.  From that space, she found her passion in creating yoga practices that are an open space for all, whether you are a beginner or experienced yogi.  Maria believes all are welcome and you should come as you are because it is your time to heal.  Holding space to practice yoga is a way to combine her passion for teaching with her passion in practicing pranayama and asanas to help yogis to get peace, harmony, balance, and fitness.

Her classes are welcoming to all levels, with a focus on safe alignment, mindful movement, and creating a calm space where students can reconnect with themselves.
