I eventually started experimenting with teaching some friends. Fast forward two years and I headed to India to do my 200-HR in Ashtanga and Vinyasa. Teaching and practising are like nothing I have ever experienced and yet it gives me the same high as when I would play in a night club. Along the way, I came to meet Ashtanga's rebel sibling, Rocket. In my eye's it is the perfect combination of tradition and playfulness. It gives you a structure to follow whilst allowing the practitioner freedom to express themselves. Through all of this music naturally had faded out of my life.After years of feeling like I was fighting an uphill battle, I had to take a big step back. Now I incorporate the tools and skills I have learnt over the years into my teaching and classes, curating unique soundtracks for that lift and carry the practitioner through their practice. I like to create a story of movement and breath when I practise and teach with a bit of a party vibe. The sound helps guide people into a space of exploration and inquiry, of playfulness and fun. I want to share the things I experience through my practice with others and not just on a physical level but also on a psychological and energetic level. Yoga has helped me overcome many barriers within my life to become stronger and more in tune person. And this is why I want to help others, through practice and through sound with an element of play. recommended resources: The Inner Traditions of Yoga by Michael Stone Growth by Carol Dwyeck About the Host: Marv is practicing for over eight years.
