Maria Oriti

Maria's passion for Yoga grew from recognizing the effect the practice has to improve one’s sense of well-being and manage pain.  She received a certification at the 225 hour level with Yoga Alliance in 2013.  Her classes aim to direct the benefits of yoga in an accessible way for any body type.  While guiding you to discover awareness of your alignment and encouraging you to find stillness through breath, she sets the tone for positive reflection so that you may be rewarded by your own personal growth, capability and power as you practice.  She teaches Power Yoga classes at the YMCA and at Harmony Yoga Studios in Ohio.

Along with the training she received as a ballroom dance instructor at Arthur Murray Studios, Maria has the habit of initiating dance parties whereever she goes! She has taught many singles and partners various styles of both latin and smooth ballroom dance as well as private couples who wish to create a wedding dance for their upcoming celebration.  She continues to teach group classes at a local YMCA and frequents many social clubs where regular dance events occur in her city.
