Healing is often an alchemical experience.
Each moment requires an attention to underlying forces that are often touchpoints for breakthrough. Feelings of unworthiness or the fear of being seen can arise as we set out on this path.
At some point our soul requires a trusted guide to help us effectively and compassionately uncover the deep well of wisdom and peace inside of each of us.
Annie Marie is that soul guide. An alchemical healer and teacher, Annie weaves together a potent blend of Breathwork, Energy Work, and Yoga helping her clients unwind multi-layered subconscious blocks on the road to somatic healing.
She holds space for individuals, groups, retreats as well as virtual 1:1 coaching, assisting in transition to a sustainably healthier lifestyle through inquiry, uncovering limiting beliefs, accountability, and tools that have transformed her own life.
A dedicated practitioner of the healing arts for 20 years, Annie’s approach is informed by some of the most well-known heart-led teachers of our time. Her formal training includes over 500 hours of training in Anusara yoga and extensive study in Iyengar, Vinyasa and Kundalini Yoga.

Annie Marie also specializes in intimacy-based portrait photography where she assists clients in integrating soul expression and empowerment through posture, form and reflection.
Testimonials:
“During the rebirthing breathwork workshop today I felt my body expand and connect to higher vibrations and then a trauma memory popped into my head. Instead of contracting and tightening, I chose to stay present and breathe into the experience which allowed my body and my consciousness to expand. This provided a great release and such deep gratitude for even the most painful experiences. Thank you Annie and Brian. ”
“I was lucky enough to be taught yoga by Annie in Thailand and what a revelation that was! With her gentle empathetic guidance I learned the true essence of yoga in a supportive, calm and fulfilling environment. Her positive energy, beautiful spirit, and undeniable talent were an inspiration and joy to be around. I haven’t found another teacher quite like her!”
“I am 47 years young and my body is currently more open and flexible than at any time in my entire life! How is this possible? Not only that. I find when the body opens wide and expands beyond its previous energetic blocks, so does the mind and the heart. This allows us to touch the essence of our true Self. Our spirit which is always infinite, open and connected to the highest intelligence. This is the true essence, and purpose, of the ancient science of yoga. The how is because I have been doing yoga with Annie almost every day for the past several months. Consistent yoga is a game changer: mentally, physically, emotionally & spiritually. I’ve been in and around the field of yoga for over 20 years and Annie is one of the greatest, if not the greatest, Kundalini Yoga teachers I have ever encountered. She also integrates hatha and vinyasa yoga. We’ve been leading powerful retreats and workshops together around the world for over 4 years. Everywhere we go people have been asking how they can continue the practice with her. For all these reason and more I highly recommend you attend one of her yoga classes or upcoming events.”
“Thank you Annie for holding such a safe, supportive, healing space during our breathwork session together. What a powerful experience for me, very deep & informative - I’m still feeling the transformations. I will definitely be continuing on with these sessions!”
“I was really happy to have Annie as my yoga teacher on our retreat. I’ve been practicing hatha yoga for 10 years, but I had never experienced kundalini yoga. It was a real pleasure to discover it with her. All of the classes were accompanied by inspiring music which provided such beautiful energy for the day to come! Annie also introduced us to breathwork which was a very powerful experience for me as it helped me get in touch with & release my emotions. In this breathwork, she assisted us in a very kind and professional way. I experienced a great sense of peace & clarity after the sessions ended. I wish she could come to Belgium to give us her yoga & breathwork classes!”
