Marie
Marie’s relationship with yoga began as a lifeboat—guiding her through transformation, loss, and self-discovery. She teaches from lived experience, offering grounded, practical, and playful practices that support resilience, self-trust, and reconnection to the body.
Yoga entered Marie’s life during a time of deep transformation and became a steady companion through heartbreak, death and rebirth, the search for belonging, and the unfolding of her own becoming. This lived experience shapes how she teaches—rooted not in memorization, but in embodiment.
Marie has completed over 1,200 hours of training across multiple lineages, including asana, yogic philosophy, kirtan & Naad Yoga, Ayurvedic medicine, and Marma Chikitsa—the study of vital energy points. Her studies have taken her to sacred learning spaces in India, Thailand, Costa Rica, and her own local landscapes, each offering lessons in humility, devotion, and curiosity.
These teachings have become the foundation of how Marie lives, breathes, moves, and relates to nature and the body. She carries this wisdom quietly, sharing it only when useful. Her intention is to offer practices that are steady and grounded, practical yet playful—inviting students to remember their innate intelligence, resilience, and capacity to return to themselves again and again.

Soteria believes the body is not just a vessel, but an oracle — and that connection is the medicine that brings us home.
