MARCIA
Rooted in over three decades of teaching, Marcia (mar-see-ah) continues to value the tradition of Hatha Yoga as a reservoir of healing. As a youth, impacted by a challenging mother, she found peace in her first class in savasana at 15 years old. The stillness she experienced then made an impression to follow the path of yoga for a lifetime. At the origin, Marcia showed up at health fairs to introduce yoga and started teaching in cities when yoga was a foreign word. She has offered numerous one-day yoga events in beautiful locations, retreats in Mexico and Hawaii, served as president of the Arizona Yoga Association and organized annual yoga conferences. The journey continues…

SIGNA
Signa has practiced and taught yoga since 1988, weaving Hatha Iyengar, Bhakti and Kundalini Yoga into a fluid, all-levels practice inspired by her lifelong love of dance. Rooted in the eight limbs of yoga, her classes emphasize yogic sound current technology, pranayama and mantra, culminating in a deeply restorative gong savasana. Practice with Signa supports you in feeling more alive, grounded, energized and inspired.

SILKE
Silke started practicing yoga at a very young age, and when she later discovered a yoga book in her local library, it felt like it confirmed something she already knew deep inside. Her first meditation, guided by that book, opened the door to a whole new experience of meeting her inner self, and she was amazed by what she discovered. During her pregnancy in the 1990s, she practiced Iyengar Yoga with guidance from Rita Iyengar, using yoga as a way to support her body and well-being. In 2003, after many years of practicing and teaching, Silke completed her yoga teacher training with Yoga Vidya in Germany, based on the teachings of the master yogi Swami Shivananda. After many years of immersing herself deeply in Hatha Yoga, she was also very inspired by the teachings of Yogi Bhajan and began practicing Kundalini Yoga. Today, yoga remains one of her greatest power tools for staying positive, fit, healthy, and connected to her spirit—and no matter what other paths she explores, she always finds her way back to yoga.
