Yoga instructor to the stars Vinnie Marino will be packing his trance and rock music and heading to San Francisco February 19-21 to conduct one of his legendary Vinyasa flow workshops being at the YogaWorks studio on Divisadero Street.

With pulsating music ranging from trance to rock legends like Led Zeppelin and The Rolling Stones, Vinnie Marino will guide you through the yoga discipline of Vinyasa flow, testing your physical boundaries while unlocking greater freedom for your body. This unique approach to Vinyasa has made Marino a legend as he incorporates each song into alignment, producing one of the most challenging yet rewarding workshops around.

Marino’s name is known from coast to coast and many spots between as some of the most famous names in entertainment and yoga have heaped praise upon the master instructor. Two-time Academy Awards nominee Robert Downey Jr. simply states “Vinnie is the ultimate yoga instructor... skilled, occasionally brutal, yet compassionate and witty” while internationally celebrated yoga instructor Seane Corn has called Marino’s Vinyasa flow classes “a creative and surprising blend of his offbeat personality, classic-rock taste mixed with challenging sequencing and a strong focus on alignment. This eclectic combination makes him one of the most interesting yoga teachers I know.”

His New York sense of humor and the way he uses all styles of music in class makes him a unique teacher and one of my favorite people!” and Heather Graham from the hit movie The Hangover has endorsed Marino’s classes saying, “I love Vinnie's class, can't wait to get there when I'm in LA. After his challenging class I feel great! Vinnie's retreats are incredibly BLISSFUL!”
