MY YOGA MELODY
About Me
WHO I AM
MY YOGA MELODY - Maria
Who I am in yoga
I fell in love with yoga 8+ years ago, after many years of dance and gymnastics. Unfortunately, my hyper-mobility was not matched with the required strength, and the same back injuries that made me leave dance, got even worse and eventually lead me to a complete stand-still.
I am grateful to have found the LYT Yoga® Method, which helped me heal my body and mind. It also helped to retrain my body to a more sustainable practice - combining stability and mobility. Now I am able to move freely again, although with integrity and attention to posture and alignment.
Who I am in life
With a M.Sc. in Engineering Physics, I am fascinated and curious to learn more about anatomy and understanding the human body in movement better. I enjoy combining the interest in science, with my love for creative movement and music.
As a mom of three, I also know the importance of building up a strong core before and after pregnancy; both to help the body during this period of life, but also to be able to keep up with the kids when they get older and more mobile.
What to expect in a class with me
I am passionate about helping others to move and feel better - on and off the mat. In my classes you can expect fun and functional yoga, with focus on posture and alignment.
The main goal is to create a safe and sustainable yoga practice, which can support us as we age. When this can be combined with smart and fun sequencing, preferably to music - that's my yoga melody!
