About Maria Santoferraro
Maria is a graduate of Marietta College and spent the past 25 years ravaging her body in the crazy corporate world. Needing a detox from an unhealthy lifestyle, boatloads of stress, and an aching back, she sought out a healthier lifestyle and went back to the one form of exercise that has always brought her joy and relief—yoga!
The practice of yoga has helped Maria heal her back from the chronic pain she experienced as a result of being diagnosed with scoliosis as a teenager. But more than relieving stress and feeling better both physically and spiritually, it has brought her a new balanced way of living that has enhanced her well-being. Maria’s passion for yoga has led her to gain her 200-hour teaching certification from Try4Life and also blossomed into this blog. In this past year, Maria has been fortunate to study with Max Strom, Rodney Yee, Kathryn Budig, and Cora Wen and will continue her yoga education and journey for the rest of her life.
Maria loves to keep her classes lighthearted and fun while helping to demystify yoga and educate her students on the benefits of yoga both on and off the mat. With a different mash-up of music every week and a variety of uplifting class themes, she keeps her classes fresh and creative. Maria’s goal is to share the benefits of yoga for everyone, especially those who think they are too old or too inflexible.

You rock Maria, wish I lived closer!!!
When I grew up in Cleveland I don’t think anyone had even heard of yoga … so cool to know there are teachers out there now!
Yea for Cleveland bloggers!! Great site. I am interested in becoming certified to teach yoga. Do you have any advice on which certification is best and where to get it? Also check out my blog: diaperderby.bblogspot.com.
Yoga can sometimes be very serious. But Maria’s classes are always fun. She laughs easily and tries to keep us all relaxed and smiling while getting all the benefits of our practice. The best part of her class is at the very end when she gives any student who wants one, a little neck and head massage while we are in shavasana. I find that I relax even deeper after her massage and I feel so totally balanced in mind and body that sometimes it feels like I’m floating. It’s a great feeling and it’s one reason I keep coming back to her classes.
Hello. So for the vermilion classes is there anywhere to sign up or do we just show up? I live around the corner from there and would love to come to yoga classes
