Marley meets me where I am, and gently guides, challenges, and encourages
me to places I didn’t know I could go. Her focus on the fundamentals of yoga
never feels mechanical, and her careful attention to the particular needs of each
student has enabled me to work with and through long -standing knee and back
problems.
-The Rev. Gretchen van Utt
She has an amazing ability to challenge those who are experienced, while
affirming those who are beginners ... I have many choices for yoga instructors,
and I purposefully choose Marley’s classes for her warmth, sensitivity,
acceptance, humor, competence, and encouragement.
-Joy Goldman
Marley is one of the most motivated educators I have ever had the pleasure of
learning from. She exudes positive energy. I recruited her to teach 2 sessions
a week at my consulting company, which has positively impacted our team
dynamic, the general well being of each participant, and has obviously reduced
stress. Marley communicates very effectively with any type of person and
naturally derives near and long -term goals based on the needs and desires of
individuals.

President & Chief Architect, Spry Enterprises, Inc.
Marley’s combination of yoga training, education in dance and psychology,
and most importantly her dedication to personal practice has made her highly
knowledgeable in the uses of yoga to serve as a physically and emotionally
therapeutic tool. With this knowledge, Marley is able to create yoga sessions
that entertain, challenge, and relax her students all at once ... Similarly, this
same understanding allows Marley to provide her students with a great technical
foundation from which to grow and expand his/her personal yoga practice.
-John North
I take many of the techniques from Marley’s class and use them in my work on my massage table. Whether it’s a stretch, a breathing technique, a muscle- releasing trick with a tennis ball, or simply the memory of her poise, The benefits of Marley’s instruction extend far beyond the classroom walls. It seems to me that Marley is living yoga practice, actively a student herself, and excellent at sharing what she’s learned. -Jes Raschella, Massage Therapist
