Marla began her study of body and movement very early
in life as a competitive gymnast, then a professional
dancer. While most people her age were sitting in
desks staring at computer monitors at University, she
was studying Ballet at the school of Les Grands
Ballets Canadiens in Montreal. In 1990 she joined Les
Ballets Jazz de Montreal and travelled the world
kicking her legs real high. From there to Chicago in
1994 with Hubbard Street Dance Chicago. There, in true
U.S. form she had bigger stages to kick even higher!
After another four years of this her legs were getting
tired so she decided to come home to the west coast of
Canada, marry her love from high school Peter Waal and
wiggle their toes together in the sand at Jericho
beach.
Her yoga journey began in 1998 in Vancouver at the
Prana Yoga and Zen Centre. Yoga became an instant
passion and quickly became her central focus. After
completing the one year teacher training course at the
Prana Centre Marla began teaching Hatha Yoga and Power
Yoga at the centre. About a year later she Studied
Ashtanga Yoga with David Swenson, and recently has
completed and advanced Ashtanga training with Tim
Miller. Marla has done workshops with inspiring Yogi's
like Shiva Rea, David Williams, Doug Swenson, Nancy
Gilghof, and Bryan Kest and is continually inspired by
her students.
Marla is passionate about teaching in a style that
highlights the breath, along with body alignment and
awareness. She plans to be a student of yoga her whole
life, also a student of life through yoga. |
