NAMASTE​

Hi, I'm Maria

about yogi Maria
I am a bi-lingual (spanish & english) international/online yoga teacher.

I was born in Costa Rica, moved to the US with my parents as a child, grew up in Maryland, and now I’m living in Colorado

I create this blog as a place to share my thoughts, my yoga practice, an.  to hopefully help others find their yoga practice

My Story

I began practicing yoga in 2011 shortly before graduating from high school. I stuck to it the following year when I got hit with intense anxiety and panic attacks. Yoga was a way to help me. 

I also decided to learn most of my practice at home (with the help of old yoga dvds my mom had at home, to then moving onto youtube and finding Yoga With Adriene). I absolutely loved the freedom I felt from practicing in my own home, getting to explore so much more deeper than I would in a public class. As long as you are safe and mindful of how your body is feeling, you can correct yourself.

I trained to earn my 200 hour yoga certification (all online just as the pandemic started in 2019!). I began teaching friends and family. 

I help people who suffer from anxiety or stress with tools from yoga that I have learned and used to help me. They are rooted in science as well as experience.

I am also a digital advertiser, a content creator (passionate about sustainability & yoga), and I also mentor people who are starting their own online business (I help with google ads, facebook ads, instagram ads, website creation, landing page creation, email automation, and lead generation). I am passionate about health, sustainability and traveling!

Now, I help anyone who wants to start, explore, & advance their yoga practice at home. I have a youtube channel where I post weekly, and an instagram where I share my yoga practice, my thoughts, and my yoga + sustainability tips.

I’m looking forward to hosting yoga and meditation retreats in Costa Rica and Colorado soon! (In addition to my online, at home practice).
