Welcome! I am so glad you are here...

I don’t believe in coincidences. If you’ve found your way to this space, something deeper is about to happen. Whether it was a quiet discomfort in your body, a search for something more, or a moment of curiosity—you’re here for a reason. And I’m so grateful our paths are crossing!

My name is Mariana, and I’ve been sharing the gift of Dru Yoga for over a decade—through weekly classes, workshops, and retreats that help people reconnect with their breath, their body, and the truth of who they are.

After completing my 300-hour teacher training in 2012, I’ve continued deepening my practice through postgraduate courses and youth trainings, always guided by one intention: to create spaces that feel like coming home.

Over time, I felt called to expand the way I serve—beyond the mat and deeper into the soul. That calling led to the co-creation of SoulWork, a movement I share with my dear friend and soul sister Tash Cook.

Together, we guide heart-led people—especially those in midlife—through powerful mentoring journeys like EMF and Metamorphosis, helping them move through change with more grace, resilience, and authenticity. This work isn’t about striving to become someone else. It’s about remembering who you already are.

I’m also—and always—a curious student. I give high priority to my personal practice and inner growth. Whether it’s through mentorship, spiritual study, or simply listening to life itself, I’m constantly learning, evolving, and raising my own standard of awareness.

I was born in Mexico and moved to Melbourne in 2005 with my wonderful husband, Alex—leaving behind what we knew to follow what felt right. Today, we share our life with our two beautiful daughters, Isabella (17) and Ivana (13), who challenge me, inspire me, and remind me daily that life is both a mystery and a blessing.

However we cross paths—through yoga, a retreat, mentoring, or a simple conversation—I look forward to hearing your story too.

Because this isn’t just about transformation. It’s about connection and I’m so grateful ours has already begun.
