Marilyn Martin is a highly knowledgeable and experienced Yoga instructor based in Berry on the South Coast of NSW. With a lifelong commitment to learning and personal development, Marilyn is passionate about sharing her knowledge, wisdom, and experience with others to assist them in their journey towards self-discovery, joy, and wellbeing.
Marilyn specialises in Chair Yoga and Chair Yoga Dance, which are unique and fun-filled approaches to wellbeing. Chair yoga is a form of yoga that can be done while sitting on a chair or standing, using the chair for support. It offers all the benefits of traditional yoga, including improved flexibility, strength, and vitality, without the need to get down on the floor. Chair Yoga Dance, on the other hand, combines movement and dance with the gentle support of a chair, providing a joyful and expressive way to stretch and strengthen the body.
Marilyn offers two chair yoga programmes in Berry: Energising Chair Yoga and Gentle Chair Yoga. Energising Chair Yoga classes take place on Wednesdays (except the first one of each month) from 9:30am to 10:30am at Wesley Hall, Berry Uniting Church. Participants have the option to buy a package of 5 classes for $85 ($17 per class) that can be used at any time, or attend on a casual basis for $20 per class. Gentle Chair Yoga classes are held on Tuesdays (except the first one of each month) from 9:30am to 10:30am at Wesley Hall, The Grange.
Retirement Village residents can attend for $10 per class, while others are welcome at $15 per class.
The benefits of participating in Marilyn's Chair Yoga and Chair Yoga Dance classes are numerous. Not only do they improve core strength and increase flexibility, but they also help reduce stress, increase vitality and overall wellbeing, improve balance and stability (which is particularly beneficial for falls prevention), enhance mental health and positive feelings, promote better breathing and oxygen uptake, and aid in the management of chronic pain.
Marilyn is highly regarded by her students and has received glowing testimonials for her classes. She is praised for her ability to spread joy and make a positive impact on the lives of her attendees.
In addition to her Yoga teaching, Marilyn also offers classes in Dancercise and Creating Calm, as well as coaching services. She hosts various events throughout the year, including workshops and retreats, such as the “Release, Relax, and Recharge” workshop and “Release, Relax, and Reconnect... a Retreat for Women. ” These events provide opportunities for participants to engage in movement, meditation, dance, and other activities that foster self-discovery, balance, and joy.
