Teaching Yoga Since 2014,
My practice draws from a range of schools and techniques including Vinyasa, Hatha/Raja, Yin and Nidra. I’m also a Reiki practitioner and an Astrologer, and these modalities also feed into my yoga teaching.
I’ve been deep in the practice of Yoga in all its forms since 2009, and I have studied extensively and with a variety of teachers in the UK and North America. I focus on guiding my clients into internal awareness. The goal is to balance and harmonise the body (and life) so that transformation and healing can take place.
Group Classes
I am running a limited schedule of public group classes at the moment, but there will be more coming in January 2027! Until then, you can find me every Saturday morning at Hotpod Whitley Bay, and I offer Embodied Astrology® sessions from time to time (often aligned with seasonal events).

XPrivate Sessions
The tools of Yoga are physically, mentally, and energetically transformative. Individualised sessions with a professional will usually give you a safer and more effective selection and application of these tools. This is what I call a therapeutic approach.
In private meetings, I will offer you a set of practical exercises designed to bring a specific area of your life, or your body into greater balance. I choose these activities from the range of traditional and contemporary practices which I’ve trained in, including yoga asana sequences (physical exercises), pranayama (energetic exercises), Chakra and Vayu work (Yogic anatomy), and Yoga Nidra (guided visualisation). If desired, we can also incorporate Astrology and/or Reiki.
Building on my Hatha and Vinyasa trainings, I developed this therapeutic approach through my studies with a school called Ajna Yoga Therapy in Victoria, British Columbia. I undertook a number of training modules with their amazing faculty between 2017-18.
I currently have availability for a small number of new clients. We will begin with an initial consultation in which we look at your specific needs and goals, and I'll provide a set of activities for you to practice at home.

About Me
I have ~800 hours of Yoga Alliance certified training in Hatha, Vinyasa, and Therapeutic Yoga, as well as ~17 years of personal practice and study with a variety of teachers. I began seriously practicing western astrology around 2018, and have been reading charts for other people since 2020. I'm also a practitioner of Reiki & Access Consciousness.
Marianne's classes are very intuitive. The movement physically is challenging but mentally comforting. I come out invigorated and would highly recommend.
