Marcus Berardino

Marcus discovered yoga in the 1990s after moving to NYC. With a desire to be fit and healthy, but mostly to temper his new fast-paced life in the big city, he began exploring this ancient method of calming the mind at the local “sacred” YMCA. Following brief periods exploring several methods of yoga including Ashtanga, when he decided to combine his professional skills as a NY State Licensed Massage Therapist with his deepening yogic discipline, and completed a Vinyasa yoga teaching certificate in 2008 with Laughing Lotus, and a second 200hr training with Prajna Yoga in Santa Fe NM. Marcus’s classes combine inventive sequencing with breath awareness, alignment, humor, and lots of heart. In 2012, while working as a Health Coach in Brooklyn, NY, Marcus co-created a yoga therapeutic workshop called ‘Body Lab’, where he helped patients overcome their various musculoskeletal injuries through combining yoga, massage and breathing techniques. In addition to teaching privately and public classes, he has led yoga retreats around the globe including Turkey and India. He also teaches yoga teacher training programs with Prema Yoga Brooklyn. www.marcusberardino.com
