Natalia Tabilo is a Body Positive 500 RYT yoga teacher and the founder of Yoga for All Bodies™. She was born in Chile and now lives in San Francisco, CA. 

She loves Yoga props and in all her classes variations (not modifications, because everything is a 100% Yoga), are offered using them! She truly believes that you don’t have to be thin, young, flexible, or strong to live and own your yoga practice! That’s why she always says “Your body, Your practice”.

LeTania Kirkland Smith is a mama, mover and wordsmith. She was introduced to yoga over 20 years ago by a dance professor at UC Berkeley and was immediately intrigued by the practice and its inherent guidance and grounding.

She believes mothering, movement and the written word can and should be used to elevate those around us. The Yoga practice should be no different.

Yoga is not a magical salve but an opportunity to recommit every day. We have an opportunity to reconnect with ourselves by listening closely to the gift of breath rather than the thoughts that would have us believe we are not worthy. It is her hope that this practice will become more accessible to all people.

Zoë believes Yoga should be accessible to ANY body as a means of healing and connecting to Self. By honoring the breath, embracing the asana flow as a dance unique to everyone, and practicing deep listening & curiosity of our inner universe we can all be better prepared to face the world with excitement, bravery, and love.

When you practice with Marianne, you can expect an energizing journey through the chakras with intelligent yet creative sequencing that leads to a maha (peak) pose, along with mudras to direct the flow of energy in the body. Her offerings emphasize creating both length *and* strength throughout the body, are heartfelt with a sense of humor and always infused with meraki- the Greek word for doing something purely out of love and devotion.
