Resilient Movement
The ability to come together, persevere, and create change.
I began teaching yoga because I wanted to help people feel safe and empowered. I did it for my love of the practice and desire to share it.

Hi I’m Markella,
A few years into teaching yoga full-time I came to the uneasy realization that I had been building my new chosen profession on shaky ground.

How we can partner.
I've taken my experience in organizing and communications strategy and combined them with my successful yoga teaching career to guide teachers in finding their voice, creating community and collectively initiating change.
