Marina was born in Berlin on 17 August 1959. She became interested in healing at a very young age. This passion led her to a lifelong study of many healing modalities, including homeopathy, psychology, diving medicine, emergency response, reflexology, shamanism, and Reiki. She is a Reiki Grand Master and has been practicing and teaching this Japanese technique for over 30 years. She moved to Krabi, Thailand in 2000. In 2008, she travelled to India where she completed her Hatha yoga 200-hour YTTC. Then, she travelled to Bali for a 300-hour YTT, qualifying her Yoga Alliance’s E-RYT 500.

"More than just Yoga "
The yoga classes were extraordinary! Rachel and Lea introduced me to a profound spiritual practice that deeply resonated with me. Each session felt like a transformative healing experience.
Marina and Marguerite are exceptional hosts, creating an atmosphere brimming with love and positivity. The adorable and friendly dogs added a delightful touch to the experience.
I would wholeheartedly return to this retreat in the future.

"Amazing week"
I had a wonderful week at Marina’s place.
As I was in low season, we were few students so I could practice in a really deep way. The 2 actual teachers (Maria Sol and Florencia) are amazing. Each of them as a different style of teaching and yoga which allows you to discover a lot during this week. The food of Marina’s dinner is amazing. The bungalows are simple but cosy, everything that you need and everything working well. The communication before coming with Margriet is also really nice, you can ask all your questions and be sure to arrive in a good mood.
I can only recommend 100% this place if you need to take time for yourself, find yourself and find peace. So grateful , thank you for everything 🙏
P.s : the dogs are the cutest ever, really nice and always happy to play or cuddle !

"Great experience"
I liked that every day was different kind of yoga, so me as begginer could figure out what I like. Each instructor was great and presented alteration to poses. Accomodation was nice and the owner cooked for us dinner if we wanted or we went to local restaurant. Dogs provided additional fun during free time.

"Yoga 🧘♀️ retreat that feels like home away from home."
I’m a newbie to Yoga as I’m trying to find an outlet to become a more calmer and grounded person. I thought I would give a 6 day retreat at Marina Yoga a go - I’m so glad I did.
Our instructor Emma (US) is incredibly patient, warm, understanding and just so passionate about Yoga 🧘♀️ she really wants each participant to get a little better each day. We did a few different styles including Hatha, Power Yoga, Yin, and gentle resistance - all under the careful guidance of Emma and Callum.
The poses were designed for beginners and you only need to attempt what your body will permit - there’s no pressure.
The accommodation is basic but it’s a community feel where people can get together at night and chat around the dinner table and talk about where they’re from and life in general.
Marina and Margrit cook some fabulous home meals like lasagna and offer other services like Reiki and meditation too. Marina and Margrit speak multiple languages so it’s very comforting for international visitors and first time Yogas.

"Yoga in the Jungle "
Marina Yoga is a quiet place in kind of the middle of the jungle. Staff is brilliant and they always wanted to know if everything is fine for me. The beach is 1 hour by feet or 10 minutes by car/ scooter. There is a beautiful pool around which you can use. Not many people are using the pool, I’ve been there three times and there was no one. Yoga classes are in the morning and evening. They offer different yoga types. Marina rescued some cats and dogs. There are all friendly and love to be cuddled. I would definitely go there again!

"Not what I was expecting "
I like the yoga instructor Erin and Branka, which apparently are volunteer so I don't know without them how would it be the retreat.
Thankfully I met some nice people that made the experience nice. Without those people I can't even imagine how would it be.

"A great spiritual guide"
Marina has full of spiritual and practical experiences. Come with an open mind; what she teaches is a unique art and technique. After multiple independent student readings on me with similar results, I know she's the real deal.

"6 Tage Yoga Retreat"
Es war soooooo toll! Das war das Hilight meiner Reise in Thailand. Das Yoga jeweils morgens und abends war wirklich grandios. Würde es wirklich jedem empfehlen!
Die Zimmer sind sehr sauber und es ist so süss eingerichtet mit den Dekos, dass man sich sofort aufgehoben und zu Hause fühlt.
Das ganze Team ist so herzlich, ganz tolle Menschen! Fühlte mich richtig wohl :-)
Die Lage fand ich super, denn es ist weg von dem ganzen Trubel. Man hat schön seine Ruhe und falls man doch etwas braucht, hat es (10min Fussweg) ein Laden eines Einheimischen, wo man alles finden kann. An den Strand fährt man ca. 10min (Ao Nang Beach), genial.
Die vielen Hunde und Katzen, die Marina aufgenommen hat, waren für die Atmosphäre die Kirsche auf der Sahnetorte. Selten so liebenswürdige Hunde getroffen. Ganz toll!
Ich vermisse die Zeit jetzt schon..

"Relaxing and nurturing for body and mind"
I had such a blessed time at Marina Yoga! It's a very intimate Retreat outside of Ao Nang. Marina, Margrit and the Yogateachers were all kind beyond words and I learned so much from them. Every Yoga and Meditation pratice was different and I suitable for most levels (some classes maybe not perfect for bloody beginners). Also, the cacao ceremony for fullmoon was super special. I'm so glad I could stay there.
Oh and the dogs and cats there are super cute
Kenny Archer
from Thailand, March 2023
Marina yoga is a lovely welcoming friendly place. All 3 yoga teachers really knew their stuff.
There are rescue dogs and 2 cats there that were so friendly and gorgeous.
The place is quite a long walk from the sea but there's a scooter too hire.
The place is small and quiet presently as marina has a scammer telling people she has closed down and returned to Germany. Not true, she is very much present and I recommend this place.

"Feeling inner peace"
Im Yogaretreat herrscht eine liebevolle und ruhige Atmosphäre, die einem zur Ruhe kommen lässt. Die YogalehrerInnen hatten alle eine sehr herzliche und positive Ausstrahlung und diese Energie spürt man auch in der Shala.
Das ganze Team zusammen mit Marina war sehr hilfbereit und flexibel. Vielen Dank für diese tolle Erfahrung! :)

"Unique experience "
This Yoga Retreat helped me in so many ways!
Marina and her teachers are so lovely and help you at any time. They get supported by the cute dogs and cats, which can't get enough of getting pet.
Here you can learn a lot about not only yoga but also yourself.
Last but not least the food is amazing. It's healthy and also delicious.

"Fantastic stay at Marina Yoga."
Just completed the 5 night retreat. Fabulous. Loved the yoga and the different styles I have learnt about. Meditation really put me outside my comfort zone and I am taking away a lot from that. The instructors were great, especially Romy who was very good and clear in directing the positions. Just a really special experience all in all that I will always have beautiful memories of... Bonus of really cuddly dogs there too which was fabulous fur me being a dog lover.... 😀

Das Frühstück war super! Es gab eine Karte aus der man jeden Morgen neu wählen konnte. Es gab Pancakes, Müsli, frische Kokosnuss und Soya Milch, Früchte, Rüherei... usw.
Der Unterricht war auch super. Die Lehrer nehmen sich viel Zeit und beantworten alle Fragen und helfen gerne.
Außerdem konnte man den Pool um die Ecke mitbenutzen und war in wenigen Minuten in der Stadt. Alles top!
Und die Hunde waren sehr lieb und kuschelbedürftig. ;)

"What an amazing experience <3"
I really enjoyed and loved the 6 days I spent at Marina Yoga! The vibe here is so relaxed & I felt that I really could devote a lot of time to looking inwards with the friendly guidance from the teachers there. Marina mainly works with Reiki so I didn’t have any classes with her but I still met her quite a bit and she is so friendly&helpful! She was very understanding when I wanted to swap rooms and helped me out straight away. What really made this retreat incredible for me though were the volunteers/teachers James, Christina and Dominika! They were so welcoming, attentive&always helpful with your smallest inquiries. I found all the classes they held to be amazing, they are all such great teachers! The classes were varied, fun, challenging, always with great instructions. If you go to Marina’s I really recommend taking all the classes every day as I felt this gave me a really deep experience! Because of the great vibes here I met loads of friendly and kind people always up for a chat, which I really appreciated as a solo traveller. The breakfast was really good and you will definitely have enough as there are many things to choose from. Also they sell lunch&dinner so you’ll be fine without bringing any food but you can also cook if you want. The pool is great and really close by. A final tip for people going there: use bug spray, they sell a really nice natural spray in their shop :) massive thanks to Marina&all teachers for this amazing experience!! Life-changing!!<3

- Plenty of opportunities to practice actually teaching yoga to other students and receiving feedback from Dali who is highly experienced, for e.g. he will teach us a short sequence then ask us each to go in front of the class to teach it.
- Dali the main teacher has plenty of practical experience to share regarding teaching in a gym vs yoga studio vs fitness centre vs private classes, so this programme is useful for actually getting a job as a yoga teacher
- The yoga classes themselves were progressive, practical, and sufficiently challenging, especially regarding alignment, anatomy, and how to teach/ give clear instructions
- The students come from all over the world so you meet people of different nationalities every other day
- Loved the venue - it is very cosy and personal, and has two shalas and a mini gym --Marina is constantly improving the place with new decor; the place is just the right size so the room is far enough to feel like you can rest, but close enough that you don't need to walk far to get to class; you can also cook;
- Generally speaking the staff are v. helpful and kind
-it is a teacher focused training course which is quite important to me
- very cool field trip to Tiger temple
- scheduling was appropriate -- there were lots of classes but with enough breaks in between - so the programme was very "doable" for me (didn't feel it was too intense or high pressured)
- they have lots of dogs and other animals on the venue

It was exactly what I was looking for, lovely friendly people and a beautiful tropical setting. Easy to venture out and see things if you're inclined, but secluded enough that you can easily stay away from all that without missing anything.

Mir gefiel die Energie und Atmosphäre sehr gut. Die Kombination aus Yoga, Reiki u Klangschalenmassage fand ich überragend. Ausserdem haben wir eine Vollmondzeremonie gemacht. Es wurden verschiedene Yogastile angeboten. Alles in Allem der perfekte Ort um sich zu erholen, zu erden und wieder zu sich zu kommen. Die Lage war zwar sehr ausserhalb aber ich fand es auch gut, somit konnte man sich vollkommen auf sich konzentrieren. Man konnte den Pool des Nachbarhotels nutzen. Gutes Frühstück inkl. Fabelhaftes Preis/Leistungsverhältnis

Reiki and soundbowl treatments were nice experiences too. It’s great that we got to go to local markets to get fruits and ingredients to cook if preferred. Went home refreshed and recharged! Looking forward to go back again!

Es war eine ganz Besondere und Einzigartige Erfahrung für mich.
Ich habe soviel erlebt und über mich selbst erfahren und gelernt, Das ich es kaum in Worte fassen kann.
Es war alles Zusammen eine tolle Begegnung, wunderschöne Location, herzliche und liebe offene Menschen, die sich Einbringen, damit jeder sein Bestes für sich rausholen kann.
Die Gegend ist wunderschön und der Strand ist nicht zu weit entfernt wenn man mal Lust auf Abwechslung hat.
2x am Tag gab's Yoga zum Teilnehmen was wirklich sehr gut war.
Die Lehre von Reiki war die schönste Erfahrung. Ich kann dieses Ereignis jedem herzlich Empfehlen, Es hat mein Leben sehr Bereichert.
Mein Dankeschön geht an Marina und das Marina Yoga Team, für dieses einzigartige Erlebnis. Dankeschön.

"Marina Herz und Seele !!!"
Eigentlich ALLES. Marina ist nicht nur eine gute Geschäftsfrau, sie ist eine sehr kraftvolle und liebenswerte Persönlichkeit. Ich habe bei ihr den Reiki Master gemacht und sie konnte mir in einer Woche sehr viel vermitteln und ich bin sehr froh über meine Entscheidung den Master bei ihr zu machen. Wir waren eine kleine Gruppe, zwei die Reiki Level 1 machten und Kelly und ich mit dem Master. Super harmonisch. Wir haben alle voneinander lernen können. Zudem morgens und abends Yogakurse. Die Yogalehrer waren alle gut und es war sehr abwechslungsreich von den Angeboten. Ich würde persönlich lieber frühmorgens Yoga machen, statt um 9.30 wo es bereits sehr heiss war. Aber rundum eine tolle Woche, die ich nur empfehlen kann.

"I'm very glad I have found this amazing place"
I liked the place and the energy. Marina was constantly asking me if everything was alright. The breakfast was amazing and I liked my apartment.
My favorite instructor was Dawn, she was able to connect quickly with her students and explain everything and even though I was a beginner, I never felt like not capable enough during her clases.
I liked the schedule. You have yoga twice a day and if you are in a healing retreat, you have your session around 12:00 / 14:00.. there was not much time to explore more the area if you didn't want to skip a class, but that goes just for the healing retreat. There's in a swimming pool close by so that's when I was when I had no time to go more far away. If you are there for just yoga, you can easily go to the beach / city. But I didn't mind, I was glad I was constantly recharging and focusing on getting better. I was so calm and relaxed during this week. Regarding the comments about smelly yoga mats - when I was there we were using towels which we put on the yoga mets, thus they were better protected, towels were cleaned everyday and we were also cleaning the mats with vinaigre, so absolutely no problem on my side, I felt comfortable during my clases. And as an animal lover, I enjoyed to be surrounded with all those sweet dogs!! I am glad I chose this program.

"Transformation :)"
Sometimes we face situations and make connections which will push our personal growth and evolution on a sustainable level and we will never forget. When I think about Marina and the other teachers my heart just wants to jump out - I am full of gratitude. Human connections over the top. Marina has become an important mentor to me and I met her just in the right time. She is tough and authentic with a huge heart. The teacher Nick was another inspiration in terms of his deep research in spirituality and meditation. Marina Yoga is not just a retreat as many out there. It can rather make you feel home, arriving at a magical place - as soon as you let go and see what it can become to you.
I highly recommend Reiki Level 1 and will definitely try to come back for Reiki 2 as my teachers Marina and Sandra have built a very own profile of intense teaching and dedication.
The area is much more beautiful than on the photos (when does that happen??) and the dorm was clean, lots of space to feel comfortable. I was looking for the breakfast every day as it was the very best on my 6months trip. Marina and her people prepare lots of snacks and food by themselves and it’s always delicious.
So much Love to you all, Marina Yoga team. See you.

Das Yoga-Retreat bei Marina Yoga hat meine Erwartungen vollstens erfüllt: Die beiden Yoga-Lehrer haben qualitativ hochwertigen Unterricht angeboten, jeden Tag gab es verschiedene Yoga-Richtungen, es wurde auf die Bedürfnisse und Wünsche der Schüler eingegangen. Das Retreat-Zentrum und die Unterkünfte sind einfach, aber gemütlich, alle waren sehr hilfsbereit und ich habe mich rundum wohl gefühlt. Die Reiki Session mit Marina war „life-changing“.

the quality of the lessons is really great. I learned a lot, the alignment class was always very good explained in details. the working books were great with lots of very useful informations. teacher very competent. I feel confident to teach a yoga class. a nice place for healing. during the practise emotion or feelings may appear but here you‘ll have teachers with great understanding of someone’s healing process. the place to stay... rooms, were very clean. I liked the fact they changed the bed sheets only once a week, is much better for the environment. lots of animals here, dogs, cats, fish, birds... but there is no reason to be afraid of any animal, they are very well trained and super friendly and respectful

From the moment you walk through the gates at Marina Yoga you automatically start to unwind and start being at peace with yourself. There were a variety of yoga styles and instructors so I got to experience some yoga classes I have not tried before. The quality of the yoga instruction was excellent and spend my 5 days in a conscious blissed our state. I also tried a reiki healing session which left me feeling really energised and invigorated. The people who were either doing the retreat or the 200 hour yoga teacher training were all lovely and added to the positive vibe.

- The staff are very welcoming and always willing to help
- The yoga instructors are highly experienced and supportive
- The guests and overall atmosphere is friendly, warm and relaxing
- The accommodation (I stayed in the dorm room) had everything I needed. It was clean, quiet and spacious
- The two trips to the market per week are perfect if you want to cook food in the kitchen. Otherwise there is a nice restaurant close by or the ability to order food to the retreat
- Beach yoga and partner yoga were definitely my highlights!

Marina Yoga is a beautiful home-grown holistic compound full of love and opportunities for growth and healing. I highly recommend their teacher training-it is very well rounded and committed to all aspects of the yogic lifestyle! A gem!

"Wonderful trip ❤"
The different yoga classes and yoga teachers really made it for a wonderful trip. The location was beautiful and close enough to the town that you could get in and out easily, but far enough away for it not to be a distraction!

"First step into yoga to better discover myself"
The location is great, you can easily go to Ao Nang beach. They bring you twice a week to the grocery store and market so you can cook but there is a restaurant (2min walk) nearby if you want to chill. You can access the pool from another property and there is enough place at marina’s to rest without going too far.
The breakfast was healthy and tasty.
The schedule was good, twice yoga a day as mentioned in the descritpion. Different kinds of yoga and different teachers who all have certifications and are very professional. They are open to any comment or suggestions.
I also discovered reiki, bowl healing and ear candling wich helped me to completely relax and feel my body in new ways. I had different emotions within me during the stay and felt my muscles after the first day, which for me means it was intense and worth doing it. And of course I left Marina’s very relaxed and feeling wonderful. I could have been staying there much longer!
Thank you so much!

"Amazing experience!"
We loved the place and we loved the people! The place is quiet, far away from touristic traffic, very relevant for retreat. Yoga and meditation was amazing, the instructors were well educated and very nice and helpful. All the cats and dogs around were mild and playful, it was cool to play with them once in a while. Generally we highly recommend Marina Yoga and Reiki!!! :-)

"I would go back anytime!"
I got very sick during my stay at Marina yoga, but they took good care if me. June (Marinas assistant) came with me to the hospital and she even offered to stay there overnight.
In between the classes we had plenty of time to explore the area, spend time at the beach, go to Ao Nang center, swim at the pool and so on.
I liked that we got the opportunity to try all different kinds of yoga. Im a beginner and didnt know so much about the different styles before.

"Everything truly was better than I expected"
I expected to enjoy myself, but I didn't expect to enjoy myself as much as I did! It was a truly enlightening experience, and Marina is to thank! If you find yourself there is it on purpose and Marina knows that. She sees your inner self and like a mother she wants to help you on your path. She's an amazing woman, and has created a lovely yoga home. I did the reiki level 1 course with her, and it was perfect. Exactly what I needed when I needed it.

"6 days yoga and meditation retreat"
The yoga teachers are great and helpful. The place is clean and very well taken care of. Marina is so helpful and and making sure that we are well taken of. She is a great lady. Thru the reiki session with her i got to know myself better and she helped me to open my mind and soul. I would say I learn a lot about my body and mind during this retreat and i would go back to her again soon.

"More than expected "
I couldn't be happier with my choice to go to marina Yoga for the healing retreat. It was definitely more than expected. The yoga classes were amazing, the healing sessions were wonderful and the vibe at the place was just beautiful. I wanted to stay longer. I really needed to recharge and disconnect for a week and it's exactly what I got. I hope I can go back soon and do my second degree Reiki with Marina! All the best and much love

"Marina Yoga is Magic and Love!"
This place has a beautiful energy! Marina is amazing - she deeply cares about each and every person that comes to Marina Yoga and the love, gratitude, and light she puts into the place is palpable. She is an incredibly gifted healer. Marina and Laura both do multiple different energy healings. I had two Reiki sessions with Marina and 1 Sound Bowl session with Laura. All of these experiences were deeply transformative, powerful, and beautiful. My time at Marina Yoga was a beautiful gift, and I look forward to going back in the future.

"Amazing 5 days, shifting mind into clearer perspectives."
- MARINA (herself), ACCOMODATION, REIKI, COUNSELLING, PEOPLE
she is literally everywhere, attending to everyone. I cannot believe how she does this. I felt totally connected to the place, my longtime fear of dogs was overcame, the attendees/yogis there are all filled with the right vibe...this is the exact remedy I need from my big-city life. Just be, just appreciate life. I felt very fortunate to came across this place, I want (and will) come back for other programs. It is a total holistic 5 days of grounding myself, at my own pace & self-discovery. Thanks to this amazing place.
