Bio
Marlize Joubert has been studying the healing arts most of her life. Her roots are in Yoga; (Vinyasa, Iyengar, Pranayama, Ashtanga, Philosophy), Ayurveda, Thai Yoga Massage, Nutrition and the juicy mystery of life itself. Curiousity and honest self-exploration has always been a source of tremendous healing for Marlize and her calling to be of service to the world at large has been clear to her since a very young age. Marlize lives in sunny California with her husband Robert and her two cats. She teaches Yoga to a wide variety of people. Athletes, friends, mommies-to-be, precious elderly and people with specific needs/injuries.
She feels privileged to be a part of so many lives and is deeply grateful for the knowledge and wisdom of all the teachers that came and went for their guidance and support throughout the ever changing universe.
At the age of eighteen, Marlize left South Africa in search of adventure and the meaning of life. She traveled extensively throughout America and the Caribbean. Her journey to get here has taken her through many different avenues- Hospitality, Yachting, Creative endeavors, Acting and Modeling. She explored different meditation modalities to keep her grounded while traveling. She finally made her descent into the Yoga Lineage. Her Buddhist practice and her kind nature hold the secret combination to her radiance and wisdom- the place she teaches from.
Yoga has been part of Marlize's life since 2005. Currently she teaches in studios on the West side of Los Angeles. Her favorite style of teaching is Vinyasa flow and inversions. She ads playfulness to her classes by incorporating arm balances, but keeps you tension free through a Pranayama practice.
She wishes each and everyone who continue to inspire and guide her life, with so much love and compassion, to be blessed forever on!
