When Emma was first introduced to yoga, the physical practice was overwhelming. After turning 30, she was inspired to explore the practice of yoga and meditation as a means of managing chronic anxiety and panic attacks. When she finally stepped back on her mat in 2017 at Samudra Studio, she focused her practice on the mind, body, and spirit connection with less concern about how her abundant body looked in each pose. She enrolled in Maine’s first Fluid Yoga School 200-hour teacher training to deepen her own practice, but discovered a love for sharing yoga with others. Emma has been teaching since the spring of 2018. Her classes embody her joyful spirit with music to move to (dancing encouraged) and laughter. In June 2020, she completed Yoga for All training to foster inclusivity for all body shapes, sizes, and abilities in her teachings.

Marissa found her way to yoga ten years ago, skeptical of how it could benefit her. With encouragement from a close friend and her first teacher, she stuck with the practice until she eventually fell in love with the calming affect it had on her physical body and chaotic “monkey mind”. Marissa completed her 200-hour teacher training in 2018 and 300-hour teacher training in 2022. Her classes reflect her own disposition, creating a trusting and sunny space to welcome her students. Marissa’s style can be best described as challenging yet mindful. She believes in cracking a joke or two in tough poses to ease the tension and remind her students to think of her classes as a moving meditation; a consciousness linking of each physical pose to each inward breath. Marissa is forever deepening her knowledge of yoga and holistic wellness.

Leah first began practicing yoga via YouTube videos in her college dorm room, following years of mental health and body image struggles. She found that regular practice offered her a number of benefits, including the powerful tool of mindfulness which she has used to manage her lifelong anxiety. A former athlete, Leah loves how yoga can be used to strengthen the body and mind in tandem, while also fostering kindness and respect for ourselves and others. Leah completed her 200-hour Fluid Yoga training in the spring of 2020 and enjoys continuing her education around yoga and meditation through local and online offerings. While she loves to incorporate firey movements into her classes, she also carves out time to encourage and guide students toward mindfulness. Outside of the studio, Leah enjoys spending time with her husband, daughter, and two dogs.
