Yoga Roots NZ

Fantastic experience: This studio is so magical. The space is cozy and inviting. Marjorlein is an incredible teacher. She is so warm and welcoming, she holds the most beautiful space for us yogis. I have attended her pregnancy classes. There was such beautiful balance of yoga, information, book suggestions and her passion for postpartum support prep.This balance was so supportive for my pregnancy journey. I also have been attending her mums and bubs classes. Again the setup of space for not only nurturing for us mummas but bubs too. She has created a welcoming environment and encourages connection amongst the mums. Marjolein offers supportive yoga for mums for postpartum. It's great to be able to do something for me but with my baby. She offers to go with what we need so if that means feeding, rocking baby to sleep, changing a nappy, we just do what we need to. It gave me confidence in attending classes. Highly recommend Yoga Roots Yoga Studio

Fantastic experience: This yoga studio is just amazing. I have loved yoga for always but since having kids i felt such a distance from my practise and I found it more cumbersome, like another thing on the list that never gets done. Yoga roots has been so healing for me, I have learnt so much and explored the whole practise in such a lovely nurturing way. The team here has me falling in love with it all again. The people who come here are just light and warmth and Marjolein is at the center of that wonderfulness. I'm so grateful to have found this amazing place and just wanted to share what an amazing job I think they are all doing. I'm a fan

Fantastic experience: When I found Yoga Roots, I was in my second trimester of my first pregnancy. I had zero yoga experience and was severally anxious about giving birth. By the end of the 7 week Prenatal course, Marjolein not only helped me relax and feel more connected to my body - despite years of body image issues - and my baby, but also made me excited to give birth. I look forward to continuing my yoga journey in the future with Marjolein at Yoga Roots and highly recommend anyone looking for a warm, welcoming, nurturing yoga studio.

Fantastic experience: Namaste Marjolein I just wanted to let you know that my Koshi chime has arrived and joined me in my meditation today and will be part of my sound healing practice for self and others. I felt the love wrapped up in my box of sound. Hugely grateful that it was sent with such beautiful energy. With gratitude and resonance

Fantastic experience: I love going to Yoga Roots, Marjolein holds a wonderful space and brings the wisdom of authentic traditional yoga. I was always to scared to go to yoga incase I didn’t do it right or not fit enough etc but now I just bring me to the mat what ever that me might be on the day and enjoy

Fantastic experience: Such a revitalising experience. I am a novice but everything we do has appropriate levels for everyone from novice to very experienced yoga devotees. My muscles are all the better for the stretching and strengthening. Outside or inside, the setting is tranquil. Love it!

Fantastic experience: What a wonderful experience this was to enjoy yoga in the beautiful Long Bay regional park over the summer months. Marjolein is a very caring instructor whose teaching is nurturing and so good for the soul...

Fantastic experience: I am a huge fan of Yoga Roots and Marjoleins beautiful, nourishing, soul-led classes. I look forward to them every week! Truly a special space with an amazing teacher ♡ ♡ ♡

Fantastic experience: I just wanted to thank you for the amazing koshi chimes that arrived beautifully wrapped and well protected last week. Opening the package was like a wonderful adventure all of its own, it made welcoming the chimes into our home sacred (as it should be). Thank you for making the whole process so sacred and seamless. We are loving the chimes!

Fantastic experience: I cannot express enough how grateful I am to have found such a kind, patient and experienced yoga teacher in Marjolien from Yoga Roots. I started out as a beginner 4 years ago wanting to increase my strength and flexibility to help with hip and back pain. Through Marjolein's yoga classes I found that not only did I make massive improvements physically, but most unexpectedly, mentally. If you have been thinking about Yoga, then I would highly recommend Yoga Roots as a fantastic way of learning about Yoga and all the benefits that it brings. The classes are relaxed and friendly, with outdoor options in summer or indoors in a lovely spacious studio.

Fantastic experience: Marjolein is a wonderful yoga teacher with a melodic yogi voice. She is knowledgeable, kind and has the most beautiful energy. Her lessons allow you to take a deep breath, listen to yourself and really focus on what you need. I highly recommend Yoga Roots.

Fantastic experience: A lovely environment to come to relax and recentre. Marjolein is a wonderful teacher - so calm and her yoga voice is so soothing! The classes are a beautiful combination of conscious movement and meditation. Both times I have left feeling like I've been wrapped in a warm hug and can face my busy life again. I highly recommend treating yourself to this local gem of a yoga space.

Fantastic experience: Marjolein is an amazing yoga teacher. I have been attending her classes for over a year and I am always learning something new. Her yoga Nidra is amazing. She is very patient and is able to modify classes to suit all needs. I am so glad I found her yoga studio.

Fantastic experience: I found Marjolein's yoga class on a local Facebook group page three years ago. I was looking for a natural technique to help me mentally manage my life overload that I was facing at the time. From the very first session I felt a calmness that was instilled by Marjolein's style of teaching. I continued on to also get relief for my ongoing back pain- incredible changes! Her teaching technique is a factor that I really like, so much that even though I have moved a 40 minute drive away I still attend classes at Yoga Roots on a casual basis to continue to gain all the benefits for my body mind and soul. Yoga Roots studio is great and also the out door classes in Long Bay Regional Park with the sound of the sea and nature are something very special.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend 'Mama Revive', a yoga class specially for mothers offered by Yoga Roots NZ in Torbay. Marjolein creates a truly wholesome experience that features gentle movements, relaxation, and meditation. I love the variety of routines and always feel rejuvenated after each session. It's a weekly highlight that I would recommend to any mama looking for reflection, restoration and inner peace.

Fantastic experience: Such a lovely yoga group and experience! The best part of my week is the mama revive class with Marjolein! She is truely a gifted teacher with such a calming and relaxing presence!

Fantastic experience: Marjolein is one of a kind, her ability and knowledge as a teacher has surpassed many I have practiced before. Her classes are a place of great connection, relaxation and personal fulfilment. I would recommend joining a class in a heart beat.

Fantastic experience: Such a beautiful space that Marjolein holds for us to come and rejuvenate. I have always felt welcome and comfortable here. I notice a difference in how my body feels after classes and I know it’s just so helpful to my physical well-being but also mental. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I ordered my Koshi online from Marjolein at Yoga Roots and it was here within a few days. Ordering was super easy, an order confirmation went straight to my inbox. I'm amazed at how lovingly Marjolein packed the Koshi. There was even a personal, handwritten message. Just wonderful, so loving. Thank you Marjolein. I am super happy with my Koshi, which was delivered in perfect condition. Absolute recommendation for Marjolein from Yoga Roots.

Fantastic experience: The yoga classes at Yoga Roots with Marjolein are amazing. She is so knowledgeable and kind, and I couldn’t recommend them more highly. I leave my yoga classes feeling so much more relaxed and grounded than when I walk in. I look forward to them every week.

Fantastic experience: Yoga Roots holds a special place in my heart. Her classes are inclusive, educational and soul feeding. Marjolein is a highly experienced yoga teacher who is so passionate about her students and practice. We are so lucky to have her and her studio as part of our community, expertise and warmth. I always leave feeling lighter, centered and rested

Fantastic experience: A while ago I was looking for a Prenatal Yoga class but found much more than that with Yoga Roots. So far I've attended Prenatal and Mums and Bubs Yoga, absolutely loved both and definitely recommend them. Marjolein has a unique ability to create a welcoming, nurturing and deeply relaxing environment, gently guiding you to focus within and discover yourself. I very much look forward to my next experience.

Fantastic experience: Marjolein holds the most beautiful, peaceful space for her clients. I have been a part of Yoga Roots for 3 years and have done prenatal yoga, mums and bubs yoga (with two babies in separate blocks) and mama revive. I always leave feeling refreshed, energized and grateful to have been part of her serene space. Marjolein is so welcoming and supportive (especially with busy babies!). She is also very knowledgeable and is able to offer sound advice around yoga practice for pre and postnatal mamas. I have loved my yoga journey thus far and will continue to support this wonderful small business!

Fantastic experience: I adore Yoga Roots and it's community. Every time I step foot in studio or in the park with Yoga Roots, I get exactly what I need out of the practice. Marjolein's approach is soft but fierce and truly transformational. I love the fact that the practice brings intention on and off the mat. I also admire the effects of the practice on the women around us, and some I work with. The co-ordination, strength, balance and breath awareness gained from Yoga Roots, is so evident in their strength training. 6 stars from me.

Fantastic experience: Marjolein and her yoga practises are one of a kind. I can´t recommend her more. Her studio is beautiful and her classes are those ones that you look forward to experience every week.

Fantastic experience: Thank you Yoga Roots for offering such deeply relaxing classes. Beautiful setting and inspiring teaching. I love how yoga’s rich history and philosophy are woven through the classes. I leave feeling peaceful and restored.
