Marie has cultivated a fantastic local community and continues to expand her training by learning from inspiring teachers from around the world.
In 2020, Marie embarked on the next stage of her journey by training to become a yoga therapist with The Minded Institute in London. After 2. 5 years of intensive study, she graduated from the 580HR Yoga Therapy Diploma in January 2023. Now, Marie shares her knowledge of yoga therapy with individuals, groups, local charities, and organisations seeking a holistic approach to health and wellbeing.
With over 1000 hours of training and learning, Marie is well-versed in the science and psychology of yoga, understanding how it can support physical and mental health and aid in the healing process.
Marie offers a variety of group yoga classes in Norwich and Norfolk. On Mondays, you can join her for an Embodied Flow class at Happy OM Yoga Studio. Tuesdays offer a Vinyasa Flow class at Norwich Yoga Central. On Wednesdays, she leads Chair Yoga classes for multiple sclerosis patients at The MS Centre in Norwich and for all at Acle Recreation Centre.
In addition, Marie hosts monthly sessions such as “Shake the Dust” on Saturdays at Happy OM Yoga Studio and Winter Yin classes on Sundays from December to March.
The Embodied Flow classes are inspired by Marie's 300-hour studies with the school of Authentic Flow. These classes aim to cultivate a deeper connexion to oneself and understanding of the body's felt sense. With careful guidance and somatic explorations of yoga asana, participants learn to listen and respond to their internal body language. Yoga philosophy is also explored from an embodied perspective, providing attendees with agency over their bodies and choices.
These classes prioritise trauma sensitivity and welcome practitioners of all levels.
” Shake the Dust” classes combine high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and yoga to offer a well-balanced practise for managing mental health, emotional well-being, and physical strength. These classes are suitable for individuals of all fitness levels and yoga experience.
During the winter months, Marie offers Yin Yoga classes that prioritise quietude, stillness, and going inward. These classes provide a space for participants to rest, receive, and regenerate through the practise of Yin Yoga and accompanying tools for deep introspection. Restorative practises, such as Yoga Nidra, are also incorporated to nourish well-being.
Whether you are a beginner or an experienced yogi, Marie Williams Yoga offers a range of classes and workshops to suit your needs. Marie's nurturing and knowledgeable approach ensures that her students feel supported and encouraged in their yoga journey. Connect with her today to start or deepen your yoga practise.
