Marina Koyen

Marina, born and raised in Kaliningrad, Russia; was introduced to yoga by her mom when she was 10. She attended her first yoga class in 2001. Here is how she describes it: ”It was a big open room with about 30 people in it. I was a bit confused; it seemed everyone was talking. As soon as the teacher came to the room and sat down, the room became silent. The teacher said an unfamiliar word and the whole room started to breathe in unison. All 30 very different people, with different lives and backgrounds were united by the simple act of breathing. This was my introduction to ujjayi breath.”

In August 2008, Marina received a 200 hr teacher training certification from “Feel Your Best” Yoga Teacher Training School in Mequon, WI. The main emphasis of this training was “How to teach yoga for everyone.” In addition, she’s completed Yin Yoga teacher training with Paul Grilley. Marina is also inspired by Scott Blossom, Richard Freeman, David Swenson, Dharma Mittra, Paulie Zink, Shiva Rea, and Andrey Lappa.

Marina’s personal favorite styles to teach and to practice are Yin, Yin Vinyasa, Power Vinyasa, and Universal Yoga. Besides Yoga, she enjoys painting, singing, biking, swimming, vegetarian cooking and spending time with her family and friends.

Vinyasa Yoga

admin — Mon, 31 Dec 2007 05:36:25 +0000

Vinyasa is a style of yoga which synthesizes the heart of the tradition with the pulse of the present-day. The term vinyasa literally translates into “wise progression”, and through intelligent sequencing effectively utilizes a dynamic exploration of the various practices of posture, breath work, meditation, and relaxation to cultivate strength, clarity, and increase energy. With regular practice a supreme balance is restored to all the systems that maintain the mind and body, allowing us to be more open, grounded, and aware as we navigate through life and all its changes. Techniques of flow (movement synchronized with breath) and holdings are used in an atmosphere that is clear, inspiring, and unintimidating to meet the needs of the individual and the whole. Beginners and experienced practitioners are welcome….

Yin Vinyasa

admin — Sat, 29 Dec 2007 03:27:37 +0000

This class reflects the true meaning of yoga-union. The union of Yin and Yang, Passive and Active, Stillness and Movement. Class begins with passive yin postures and invites the body to open freely on its own. Allowing YOU to quietly connect internally with yourself & your body temple. Once the connective tissues in between the muscles & the bones of the body are open & fluid, we move into a more active practice, with a new found sense of freedom. Lightly traveling through sun salutations and creative sequences with the rhythm of the breath. Open to all levels of experience.
