Anna Rita Marinaro – Italy
Anna Rita Marinaro is not just a yoga student — she is the owner of a vast Fitness, Pilates, and Anti-Gravity Center in Viterbo, Italy. Her journey with Adhiyogi began almost by chance. During his travels through Viterbo, she invited him to give a couple of yoga lessons to her clients. The impact was immediate and profound — so much so that she asked him to conduct a full Teacher Training Program at her center.
That first training had just three trainees, but the seeds it planted were powerful. The collaboration grew into a warm, enduring friendship. Anna invited him back for two more teacher trainings, each time deepening her own knowledge and refining her teaching under his guidance. Over time, she offered him something rare: free housing in Viterbo — forever — whenever he visited.
Adhiyogi, recognizing her passion and vision, developed a special Spine Corrector Yoga Course for her, designed to be taught at a National Sports Body in Italy — a project blending yoga with athletic performance and rehabilitation.
Anna speaks of him not just as a master, but as a friend whose nobility of mind, humility, and dedication are unparalleled. “This certification is just a starting point,” she says. “I have a long way to go, and I will continue this journey with Neel!” The two seem bound for life, united by yoga, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to spreading authentic teaching.
OM Shantiḥ.
