Hi! I’m Marissa
I was once where you are right now.
Feeling overwhelmed by the day-to-day tasks, the endless to-do list,
and constantly worrying about everyone around me with no energy to check in with myself.
I’m here to guide you into a life with more ease and energy, leaving behind stress and overwhelm, and achieving the life and body of your dreams.
I didn’t realize what I was really signing up for when I got my certification to teach yoga. Not only was I able to guide others on their mat, but I felt like my life was empty without my yoga practice.
I didn’t feel like myself if I didn’t get on my mat.
In 2024, I became truly unhappy with my body. I felt strong and confident on my mat, but I’d see pictures of myself, feel my clothes getting tighter, and didn’t know what to do.
I found the shift of not relying on my yoga practice to help me lose weight and change my body, but found science-backed tools to help me lose 20 pounds while putting on muscle.
I changed my body completely.
When I got my 200 hour certification in 2019, Yoga became a part of my life.
I realized that this is what I needed to share in my yoga practice and my teachings. Yoga has changed my life but there was so much knowledge I was missing in order to live the life I’ve always wanted to. To have the body I always strived for.
If you’re ready to take your practice to the next level and build the body of your dreams, book a 30 min call with me to see if we’re the right fit to work together. I’d love to be a part of your journey and guide you to your truest Self.
Your potential isn’t met yet - it’s waiting for you to say YES.
I recommitted to my yoga practice. I gave myself more compassion and patience than I ever have before.

In a time where finding my practice wasn't always easy, the comfort and ease of taking Marissa's virtual classes inspired and uplifted me. Her calm, steady tone kept me focused on the practice, allowing me to let go of the stress of the world and tune back into my body and breath. I highly recommend this for anyone who needs a teacher who feels like a friend to give them the space to find or deepen their practice.
"Marissa has a knack for making her students feel held, recognized, and valued in her class. "

The classes were built to help me gradually work my way up to my goals. Her ability to explain things in layman’s terms and demonstrate/explain poses in a way that makes them easy to grasp was especially appreciated. Furthermore, she was willing to listen to what specific aches/pains/issues I was having prior to a particular class and alter it accordingly. Highly recommend and am looking forward to working with her again in the future!
"Marissa is an absolutely incredible yoga teacher who knows how to tailor a class to fit her students' needs."
