Meet Marlena
I’m Marlena — a full-time teacher who brings fierce clarity and open-hearted strength to every morning practice. My sessions are dynamic and deeply rooted in your personal power, designed to leave you feeling centered, capable, and connected before the world wakes up. If you're ready to step into your day with presence and purpose, I’d love to welcome you on the mat.


Before the emails.
Before the chaos.
This time is yours.
Morning practice isn’t just convenient. It’s transformative.
When you start your day on the mat:
-
You move before the world pulls you in a hundred directions
-
You breathe before the overwhelm hits
-
You strengthen your body and your boundaries
Most of our members are women juggling work, caregiving, and everything in between. They don’t have hours to spare. But they do have 60 minutes to return to themselves—before the noise, the texts, the traffic, the stress.
And that’s why they keep coming back.
Not for yoga that fills time.
But for yoga that restores it.
