Hi, I’m Marge (she/her), a Virginia-based movement educator and interdisciplinary artist. I work with yoga, dance, and embodied movement practices rooted in creativity, curiosity, and decades of training across dance, circus arts, yoga, performance, and somatic exploration.
movement (and) language:
using my body and words
for full expression.
​
Come move, explore, and reconnect with yourself through yoga and embodied movement — in classes, trainings, workshops, and retreats.​

About
I’m a lifelong mover, educator, language enthusiast, and interdisciplinary artist whose work bridges the worlds of yoga, dance, circus arts, and embodied creativity. With a BFA in Dance, a minor in Spanish, formal contemporary circus arts training in Italy, and an E-RYT 500 YACEP credential through Yoga Alliance, my studies, performances, and teachings have carried me across studios, stages, retreat spaces, and training programs around the world.
​
I began teaching movement at 15, starting with preschool ballet classes, and have spent the decades since guiding students into deeper relationships with their bodies, artistry, expression, and self-trust. My own movement background draws from a dynamic blend of artistic gymnastics, classical and contemporary dance, competitive diving, hand balancing, dance acrobatics, circus training, somatic exploration, and more than 1,500 hours of yoga education.
​
Over the years, I’ve led multiple 200-hour teacher trainings, specialized educational modules, mentorship programs, workshops, intensives, university curriculums, and more than a dozen retreats for fellow movers and teachers within my community. My approach is deeply informed by curiosity, nuance, playfulness, musicality, and a reverence for authentic human expression — both on and off the mat.
​
Alongside movement, I’ve always held a deep love for spoken language and cultural exchange, particularly Spanish, Italian, and French. I believe movement and language are intimately connected: each with its own rhythm, nuance, accent, fluency, awkwardness, and capacity for connection.
​
Whether I’m teaching yoga, facilitating teacher education, swan-diving into a cenote, tinkering with crystal singing bowls, or rolling around on the floor investigating movement patterns, I bring a blend of grounded knowledge, humor, warmth, grace, and creative spirit to every space I enter.
​
And when I’m not upside down somewhere...? I can usually be found fully horizontal at home with my dog, watching television or disappearing deeply into an aggressively hot bubble bath.
