Show
Marcia is an ERYT 500 instructor, novice astrologer, nature lover, movement enthusiast, water explorer, and earth wanderer. As a traveling yogi, she has had the opportunity to study yoga in India, Nepal, Peru, and the USA. Teaching yoga abroad in over 12 different countries has given her the chance to experience a variety of cultures that adds to her teaching value. Marcia has been studying yoga for nearly a decade and a half. Her curiosity for travel began when she left the east coast of the USA for San Diego, California, 10 years ago. She stayed in California for a few years gaining skills.
Retreat location
The training will take place in Yucca Valley, California, USA. Boulders and buttresses, rugged mountains, gold mining ruins, and desert plains dotted with oddball trees—Joshua Tree National Park is a weirdly wonderful place. Nicknamed “J-Tree” by locals, the park lies at an ecological crossroads, where the high Mojave Desert meets the low Colorado Desert.
That marriage results in amazing desert flora, including those wacky namesake trees (actually a type of yucca) and leafy groves of palm trees. Joshua Tree’s beauty shines around the clock, with vibrant sunsets melting into nights filled with uncountable stars perfect for stargazing adventures.
