This newfound passion surprised not only herself but also her family and friends. Through dedicated practice, Marit unearthed a deeper connection with herself and discovered the power of listening to her inner truth. She learned the importance of nurturing body, mind, and spirit to achieve balance in life. Following her teacher training in Miami, Marit returned to Mallorca and established her own yoga studio.
