Meet Marilyn

Teaching yoga is a natural extension of her love affair with the practice,
and even as a teacher, Marilyn believes it is important to continue to be a student of yoga. Marilyn completed her RYT 200 training in May 2016, when she graduated and became registered with Yoga Alliance. She became certified in the practice of Yin Yoga in April 2017 with Travis Eliot. She believes the quiet practice of Yin is a perfect complement to an active yoga practice. Marilyn is a preschool teacher and licensed child care provider. She has cared for children in her Southington home for over 30 years. When not down-dogging or diapering, she enjoys gardening, crafting, and hiking. Each summer, she visits one of our country's beautiful national parks and practices yoga there and at nearby studios. More than anything, Marilyn believes in bringing a sense of humor to the practice and to life. She has written and taught many fun-themed yoga classes for adults and children. For example, Game of Thrones yoga, Harry Potter, Halloween themes, Dr. Seuss, Full Moon classes, Disney Prince/Princess classes and National Park themed yoga. As she says at the end of her classes, Marilyn believes you should "Laugh as much as you breathe and love as long as you live.
