Marisa Pelonero

Marisa loves to share her experience of the joy and benefits of yoga with others. Certified through Yoga Fit in Vinyasa Flow, Marisa has taught at The Yoga Haven since 2010 and has had a strong personal practice for 6 years.  A natural teacher and communicator, she teaches 7th Grade Life Science at Austin Middle School in Galveston. Marisa creatively incorporates themes from the Yamas & Niyamas, poetry and inspirational  readings in her classes. She uses her practice to fuel inspiration in her life both on and off the mat, to ground and center. Marisa's practice is taking on new emphasis as she prepares to give birth this summer.



Marisa Pelonero instructs the following:
  • Yoga Wings
  • A vinyasa-flow class using surya namaskar (sun salutations) as a thread woven throughout the practice.  Standing poses, forward bends, back bends, twists, balance poses and inversions are sequenced with the vinyasa. This dynamically-paced series builds internal heat, strength, stamina, focus and flexibility. Mixed-level class for those with some yoga experience.
