“It’s a matter of life and breath.”

Marcus came to yoga for the physical benefits, but soon discovered that the magic went much deeper. With a background in philosophy, martial arts, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and a life spent immersed in music, yoga became a natural meeting point between movement, breath and the mind.

His journey into yoga began with Rocket, followed by Yin and Iyengar, alongside advanced trainings with teachers including David Swenson, David Kyle and Jason Crandell. In 2015, he created 4BEAT, combining yoga, movement and custom-mixed music to use rhythm and breath to deepen concentration and create a meditative flow.

His teaching draws on influences from Jiu-Jitsu, Capoeira and FRC, but the intention is always the same: to find meditation in movement, tune the breath to the beat, and feel more.

4BEAT: Take the practice seriously, not yourself.
