Marla is developing a series of DVD’s that reflect the path she has taken in
blending fitness with mind-body practices.  The first in the “Tranquility for the
Fitness Soul” series is
Yoga Inspired Functional Fitness, a program that
blends both Hatha and Taoist Yoga forms while respecting the principles that
govern functional fitness.  This is a truly "fusion" workout that will satisfy both the
fitness enthusiast and yogi in you!

Marla is collaborating with a very talented and intuitive musician named Steven
Burgess on many projects.  You can preview some of Steven’s work and contact
him through

PRAISE FOR "YOGA INSPIRED FUNCTIONAL FITNESS"...

"Congratulations are due to Marla Ericksen for taking the principles of Yoga and bringing them to the  greater fitness community. The
routines are good, the instruction is thorough and Marla's voice is soothing.  I believe many people curious about yoga, energetics and
their Human potential will find Marla's DVD an accessible and inspiring experience of the body/mind/spint connection."
- Paul Grilley, author of "Yin Yoga", creator of "Anatomy for Yoga".



"Marla skillfully and sensitively leads practitioners in a wonderful combination of yoga sessions. Her voice, manner, sequencing and care
are wonderful... I highly recommend her."
- Sarah Powers, creator of "Insight Yoga"



"Marla's program is indeed a wonderful fusion of Yogic and Daoist practice. Traditional hatha yogis will find her flow unique, challenging
and yet at the same time gentle and serene. The yoga, the merging of body and energy, is palpable. After a few repetitions, the practice
also guides you mentally into a deeper state of mindfulness. What more can you ask of any yoga practice than to exercise and tone the
body, mobilize your energy and focus the mind? Well done Marla! "
