Private yoga lessons provide you with your own “yoga toolbox” that you can take off the mat and into daily life for overall well-being. Your personal yoga practice will grow and evolve with you.

Testimonials
“I was very happy to find that Marla offers private lessons. In these lessons, Marla’s willingness to work within the limits of my reduced flexibility and strength has quickly reaped encouraging results. For each lesson, Marla is quick to assess what to work on and tailors the content accordingly. In between lessons, I have access to her fantastic set of online courses ranging from 10-minute pose-focused to full hour-long sessions. I thoroughly recommend Marla.”
“I had a very weak back that was prone to injury. A lot of times I had pain just standing or sitting. Things are much improved. I am more flexible and getting stronger every week. My core and back are so much better I actually have my life back.
My biggest win is having exercises that can release tension and stop pain pretty much immediately!
Marla is very careful and believes in taking things slow. This was very important for my recovery. I have tried other yoga instructors, who pushed me to do things I was not ready to do and caused more damage. Marla emphasizes doing things the correct way, instead of just doing them however your body can. This is important for someone like me that has a lot of compensating going on. By forcing yourself to do poses correctly you have to use those muscles that are weak, and then they become stronger over time rather than just putting more strain where it’s not meant to be. I highly recommend working with Marla!”
“I have been practicing Yoga for many years. On my journey I had many instructors, workshops and private classes. I took one class with Marla and that was it. She is not only an incredible guide, her techniques and the way she teaches helped me to understand and apply alignment right after a pose transition. Her connection between mind, breath is unique. She is incredible.”
“Marla is a wonderful yoga instructor! I’m a yoga novice and was unsure what to expect, but I was very impressed with her knowledge, gentle guidance and what I can tell is her strong dedication. She helped me with alignment and balance issues, which was very helpful. Also the connection between breath and movement that is part of her guidance left me feeling both relaxed and energized. I highly recommend Marla.”
