Marina Mukandala leads LIVE virtual yoga, private yoga, immersive healing retreats, and personal coaching — building the kind of strength that doesn’t burn out.
What L.I.F.E. Means

I feel so much lighter… I came in carrying so much weight and I’m leaving with tools I can actually use in my daily life.
Empowering. Rejuvenating. Life-affirming. Essential. It helped me to reach inside and recover some strength and serenity that I needed very much.
Marina pours her heart and soul into every class she teaches. The energy is contagious. The message is clear — let go and trust. That’s yoga.
The growth I have had while in Marina’s classes is incredible! Things that I never thought I could do — that I now am doing or working towards doing — is so amazing!
This wasn’t just yoga — it was a full reset. I reconnected with parts of myself I didn’t even realize I’d lost.
It’s the only yoga studio I’ve ever attended where the instructor takes the time to learn your name. Marina exudes warmth and friendliness.

Meet Marina
Marina Mukandala spent over a decade building a yoga community in New York, teaching thousands of students, training teachers, and creating a space where women showed up not just for the workout, but for each other.
When she felt called to relocate with her family to Tennessee, she didn’t just move. She rebuilt. New community. New offerings. Same heart for teaching, and the same gift for making every woman in the space feel seen. She still keeps close to her community in New York and loves every opportunity to reconnect and be in their presence.
That ability to build community from scratch, to start over, and to cherish every relationship, new or mature, is what makes Marina’s retreats, classes, and coaching different. She’s not teaching from theory. She’s teaching from the middle of a life she’s actively building.
