“Coming back for my second year, I hoped to cultivate what I started last year, but so much more took place for me than I had anticipated.The wonderful thing is that it was not at all a regurgitation of the previous year, but a seemingly whole new course for me. I was constantly experiencing a deeper and vaster absorption of it.”
— Christine Olson


“My hips, sacrum, and pelvis are realigning profoundly, I don't hold myself in the old ways. It is really shocking that this has happened in three months. I no longer see any limitation or boundary to what is possible if I align my body.
— Ron B., attorney


“I did not think I would have been so fortunate to experience what I did. I have the deepest respect for you and your teaching.”
— Dr. Dan B., dentist


“Having studied with Maritza before I knew that signing up was going to be a huge unknown deep journey that I was ready for – to crack open the dense energy I had become– I loved it all, every time I thought we hit a peak, the next class would be even better. I feel I have let go of many holding patterns, I feel more beautiful, open and happy, such a gift I have given to myself.”
— Sandy M., winery owner


“This immersion was definitely deeper, transformational and 'rea'” in comparison to everything else I have done. Many immersions/TeacherTrainings claim they will 'deepen your practice and transform your life,' this is the first time I have experienced that to be true. I feel quite blessed to have been part of this great group. The last few months have been an amazing personal journey and I am so thankful and appreciative to you.”
— Rachel V., veterinary nurse

“I would like to teach and each time I go to a new style or am instructed under a new teacher I constantly come back to your teachings and instruction. It seems there are few who truly balance ‘Grace and Guts’.. Thank you for allowing me to see beyond the pain, ego, and fear.”
— Geoff B.


“Learning the Alignment Principles has been enormously helpful to my practice, but it was your teaching, your extensive knowledge and experience, your keen eye, and your exceptional ability to articulate yoga in all its forms that provided me with a catalyst for change.”
— Paige T., yoga teacher


“If you want to know the truth I am always in awe of the place you reach in me, and the places we all go under your guidance. I resonate so much with your no-nonsense approach. Overall, Maritza, I feel honored and so lucky to receive the fruits of your life-long labors and studies, just being around you brings me much deeper into myself.”
— Heather McF., massage therapist


“What I know is that I have had more breakthrough, more awareness and more connection with my own consciousness through your classes than any other, and I have studied with all the 'top Anusara teachers.'”
— Lisa W., counselor, yoga teacher


“My practice has slowed, I have gone deeper. My shoulders have never been so open. I am more aware of how to work with my body. My teaching has become more dynamic and confident as I have deepened my home practice studying with you.”
— Pete C., yoga teacher


“To find a teacher who has achieved this level of skill is the only real way to learn because you get the transmission through your intellect, through your body, and through your heart and soul. And I felt, as I very, very rarely do, that I could completely give myself over to Maritza’s guidance.”
— Nora Dwyer
