Yoga Experience

Transformative journeys through yoga and wellness.

Marita,
Todays class was simply divine! I was COMPLETELY relaxed when I left. Thank you so much. I feel so lucky to be able to be in your class.

For the rest of my life I will cherish my time at MARITA YOGA.
Marita is the very essence of what a teacher is. She is honest, wise, kind, and patient. Years of experience are what she shares with students who are willing to listen.

About Marita

Discover the journey and philosophy behind MARITA YOGA and its founder.

I have dedicated my life to the practice, teaching, and therapeutic application of yoga in a wide range of settings—from private studios to hospitals, to academic institutions.
The founder of MARITA YOGA and the Kingwood Yoga and Wellness Center, as well as the creator of YOGA 4 KIDS, a pioneering brand dedicated to introducing children to the healing power of yoga. Through this brand, I developed a suite of educational tools including the YOGA 4 KIDS board game (Ages 4–104), an instructional YOGA DVD, and
The Adventures of Yoga 4 Kids, a therapeutic and educational picture book designed for children ages 4–12.
In addition to my work with children, I have made significant contributions to yoga education at the collegiate level. I designed and instituted the yoga curriculum at Lone Star College, Houston, Texas, and created Yoga Teacher Training Certification Programs, equipping aspiring instructors including the academic teacher and medical professionals with the tools to teach with integrity, knowledge, and heart.
My teaching philosophy is rooted in accessibility, adaptability, and empowerment.
Currently working with adults in Lakewood Ranch, Florida, I aim to create a safe and inclusive space to support my student's physical, emotional, and mental well-being.
