Mariane Sakay

Founder 

Mariane has been guiding others on their wellness journey since 2019, teaching across NYC, the Hamptons, and at retreats around the U.S., while also leading wellness events for companies like Wells Fargo, Rhone, and Point72. Yoga has become a deep journey for her—one that reaches into the roots of self-realization and inspires spaces of presence and transformation.

She holds certifications in Ashtanga Yoga and Ayurveda from Mysuru, India; Hatha Yoga from Hawai‘i; and Rocket Yoga with David Kyle, and has trained in Kundalini Meditation and Holotropic Breathwork. Her approach blends these traditions into grounded, accessible practices that bring balance and connection into everyday life.

Sean

Sean is an enthusiastic teacher who uses yoga as a compass on his road to recovery from addiction.

A graduate of the inaugural Sound of Om 200 Hour YTT, he studied under Katya Guseva and Tony Meyer before making the decision to become a yoga teacher. Having found a plethora of benefits to his physical, mental and spiritual health through dedicated practice, he teaches with the hope of helping others find peace through inner balance.

Students who attend his classes can expect a challenging, but accessible flow that emphasizes stepping outside of their comfort zones to surpass what they perceive as their limits.

Gianna Lignos

Over the past four years, Gianna has devoted herself to the practice of yoga — not only as a physical discipline, but as a path of self-discovery, healing, and inner connection.

What began as a personal journey has gently evolved into a deeper calling. Recently certified in Vinyasa yoga, Gianna now shares this practice with intention, presence, and care.

For Gianna, yoga is not about perfection or performance. It is about returning — to the breath, to the body, and to the present moment.

She views her work as her dharma, a purpose rooted in service. Her intention is to create a safe and supportive space where others can move freely, explore their inner world, and reconnect with themselves on a deeper level.
