About Marina DE LIMA

Marina De Lima is certified E-RYT 500 with over 15 years of teaching experience,  teacher trainer, and the creator of The Elemental Path™, a holistic yoga education method for teachers, guides, and creative seekers. She began her teaching journey in the United States and is now based in Lisbon, Portugal, offering trainings, immersions, and retreats internationally.

Marina’s teaching is rooted in intelligent and creative sequencing, weaving breath and movement to create space for reflection, acceptance, and transformation. Her classes invite students into a meditative, embodied experience—where practice becomes a living dialogue with the body, the natural world, and the deeper layers of self.

Her work is informed by extensive training in Ashtanga Vinyasa and Rocket Yoga, Yin Yoga, Qi Gong, Meridian Theory, Tantra, Taoist philosophy, and ceremonial medicine practices. These lineages come together to form the foundation of her unique teaching expression—one that bridges dynamic movement with stillness, structure with intuition, and ancient wisdom with modern embodiment.

At the heart of Marina’s work is a deep reverence for yoga as a ritualistic and ceremonial practice—a way to enter into communion with nature, the elements, and the unseen rhythms that guide our lives.

Marina is deeply devoted to ceremonial and healing modalities and has dedicated her life to studying with teachers, shamans, and guides around the world. These lineages inform her teaching and trainings, offering practices that are both grounded and transformative, ancient and alive.

Her intention is to inspire students and teachers alike to cultivate the courage and trust to follow their hearts, walk their authentic path, and move toward truth, liberation, and wholeness.

Yin & Qi Gong Flow

Yin & Qi Gong Flow is a gentle, nourishing practice that blends the stillness of Yin Yoga with the flowing movements of Qi Gong. We begin in long-held yin postures to awaken the meridian lines and organ system, then transition into standing Qi Gong forms that circulate fresh Qi for vitality and energetic balance. Guided visualization and healing sounds support the harmonization of the organs, and the practice closes with grounding yin poses to integrate the experience. This subtle dance between yin and yang supports regulation, renewal, and harmony. Open to all levels.

Elemental Flow

Elemental Flow is Marina De Lima’s signature vinyasa practice, inspired by nature and the elemental forces within us. Through a progressive, breath-led approach, movement and awareness weave together into a meditative flow that awakens strength, fluidity, clarity, and ease. This practice invites a sense of ritual and deep connection, dissolving habitual limitations and guiding us toward the true aim of yoga—returning to our own true nature. Open to all levels.
