Teacher. Marco first encountered yoga at a very young age, when his father was trying to quit smoking and brought him along. Since then, yoga has helped him stay more connected to the world and to the ongoing process of evolving, discovering the joys and mysteries of life. Through movement and consistent practice, he experienced yoga’s healing power, which helped him avoid surgery on his back, neck, and knees after injuries. As a musician, he also brings his artistic passion into this ancient practice. Marco sees yoga as far more than the union of mind, soul, and body. For him, it is a way of life to be explored both on and off the mat. It invites presence each time we remember to breathe. As our practice deepens, so do our sense of community, compassion, inner peace, and joy. By sharing live music during shavasana, Marco aims to inspire his students and fill their practice with creative energy.
