Welcome Back, Ms. Mar!

We are so delighted to welcome Mariela Gomez back to our Shining Kids Yoga teaching staff! Mariela was one of our first Shining Kids Yoga teachers and was well loved by many students. We missed her when she moved away to Florida. We are so lucky to have Mariela back on our teaching staff for some of our virtual classes this fall. Join her for Stuffed Animal Yoga Online on Thursdays at 4 p.m.!

Mariela Gomez

Mariela Gomez has been teaching yoga to babies, parents and children since 2013. After receiving her Budding Yogis certification, she found out she was pregnant! Plans went on hold until motherhood sunk in, and her daughter has been 'teaching' and practicing with her ever since. Mariela's daughter brings such joy, fun, energy and love to her life. As a certified kids, postnatal and adult yoga instructor, she wants to share that experience and playfulness with her students, helping them disconnect from their everyday stresses and connect positively with their children and families. Her kids yoga classes are aimed at helping children focus on breathwork, body movement and overall awareness as tools to help cope with big feelings. Mariela is the owner of My Little Light Yoga in Fort Myers, Florida.
