Maria discovered her love for teaching yoga during the quiet pause of the COVID shutdown, when she completed her 200-hour Hatha-focused yoga teacher training. Her classes blend slow Vinyasa flow, restorative and supported postures, and the meditative roots of traditional Hatha, creating an experience that feels grounding, accessible, and intentional. She believes yoga should meet people where they are, and her teaching reflects that—gentle, steady, and welcoming. You’ll often find her practicing Slow Flow, though she loves pushing herself in a good power class too.

Off the mat, Maria is an adventurer at heart. Her bucket list includes visiting every national park, snorkeling the Great Barrier Reef, and standing at the top of Machu Picchu. When she’s not exploring, she’s usually hiking, tackling home renovation projects, or rewatching Gilmore Girls with a cozy cup of something warm.
