Hi, I’m Marisa!
Midwest born and raised, I moved West to study psychology and biology at Colorado State University, deepening my curiosity about the intersection of ancient wisdom and evolving science of the brain, body, and human experience.
As a householder yogi, I’m interested in how these ancient teachings can be woven into our relationships, daily responsibilities, and the inevitable messiness of being human.
I am deeply grateful to my teachers for introducing me to the yogic path and practice, and humbled by the opportunity to pass it along with care.

Yoga, as a way of life and a philosophy, can be practiced by anyone with inclination to undertake it, for yoga belongs to humanity as a whole. It is not the property of any one group or any one individual, but can be followed by any and all, in any corner of the globe, regardless of class, creed or religion.
- Sri K. Pattabhi Jois
