Kellie Marraffa

Instructor at Derry

The very first time I walked into a hot yoga class at Sweat & Soul I knew

I was hooked. The way it made me feel was like nothing I had felt

before. The more I practiced, the more I fell in love. Yoga has

definitely helped me through some of the most difficult times in my

life. Learning the magic of breath to movement and how you can center yourself with a simple breath was so helpful in my daily life. 

 Deciding to become a yoga teacher was something I thought of for a

long time. I wanted to be able to make people feel the way I felt

every time I left a class.  I received my 200 YTT certification

with Virginia Gallagher and Hot Asana University in May of 2020.

For me, yoga is more than a physical practice—it’s a way to reconnect with ourselves and the present moment. In my classes, you can expect a welcoming space, thoughtful sequencing, and an emphasis on mindful alignment and breath awareness. I believe yoga meets you where you are, and I’m here to support you every step of the way.
