Marta moved to Indianapolis to start a career as a hairstylist in 2009. They began practicing yoga their senior year of high school, and the practice never left their routine. Always a lover of movement, Marta has enjoyed playing soccer, running track, cycling, hiking, kayaking, crossfitting, and dancing professionally, but it was the 360 spectrum that yoga encompassed which attracted her so much to the practice. A yoga retreat in Peru became the catalyst for her to finally initiate the yoga teacher training program she had long considered.
Marta has a passion for helping individuals connect with and feel empowered in their own bodies. Their own practice has ebbed and flowed with different emphasis and styles throughout their life, and they feel that the same permission should be offered to their students. She believes that exploration is an important part of finding acceptance in our bodies and that rest is a powerful form of rebellion. It is these beliefs that encourage a sense of softness, playfulness and affirming support with every yoga class they lead.
Whether leading a restorative practice or an active vinyasa flow, Marta strives to bring a down-to-earth, genuine approach to her teaching, hoping to help forge grounded confidence in each student’s practice. With over 18 years of experience practicing yoga, her whimsical sense of humor and vast knowledge of the practice is woven into each class she teaches, opening the door for students to more deeply discover connections between poses, themselves, and the community around them.
