Bio:

Margo Rosingana (she/her) As a yoga teacher, I strive to bring thoughtfulness and sensitivity to the yoga space so that students may attend to their own inquiry and get what it is they need from the practice. The classes I teach combine detailed alignment, fluid breath, somatic movement, and heart-based themes. In addition to my experience as an instructor, I facilitate a signature Restorative yoga teacher training program.

I have an intense curiosity to understand what it means to be human. I am inspired by people’s resiliency and creativity and the ways that they embody their truth through writing, movement, music & art. I am currently enrolled in the Master’s of Clinical Mental Health Counseling program at Goddard College in Vermont where I am studying body-based psychotherapy.
