Since then she has studied many different styles of Yoga intensively and travelled to different parts of Asia and Europe on courses and retreats increasing her understanding of the whole Yoga system. She continued to learn under Swami Vivekananda Saraswati for several months of intensive study each year and then moved into the realm of meditation by retreating several times per year, for periods from one week to several months at a time, in the Advaita Vedanta tradition. She is now part owner of the Seasonal Yoga school and teaches beginners to advanced classes in Kundalini and Tantra Yoga, gives lectures, workshops, seminars, private classes, etc. Marit exemplifies the life of yogi in her dedication to the practice and helping others find a way to make these wonderful teachings relevant to their lives.
