Marlene’s journey with Move+breathe began with a desire to feel better and reignite her yoga practice. She started with a few classes that built into a daily practice and was introduced to the nutrition program here at M+b. Marlene’s work with her nutrition coach, Tara Bates, enabled her to cut through the years of mis-information and fad diet noise to create healthy habits regarding her nutrition, sleep, stress levels, exercise, lifestyle and find a community of support. Marlene’s success has prompted her to go from Client to Coach so that she may share her experiences and knowledge.

Marlene has earned her Certifications in Holistic Nutrition and Health and Wellness Coaching through AFPA in 2024.

Marlene loves yoga, hiking, strength training as well as cooking and creating healthy, interesting meals for her friends and family.
