Vena Marie is a licensed Esthetician, Master Esthetician, and Esthetics Instructor with 11 years of professional experience and 9 years of teaching esthetic students. Her expertise in skin health, combined with her passion for holistic wellness, forms the foundation of Deeply Rooted. 

Her journey into yoga started in 1998 with a Rodney Yee VHS tape. What initially began as physical practice soon became a powerful tool for managing depression, navigating significant life changes, recovering from two car accidents, and coping with chronic pain. 

Although teaching yoga wasn’t on her radar, her first yoga instructor encouraged her to lead a Parks & Recreation class in 2008. Over time, her teaching style evolved from energetic power yoga to a more trauma-sensitive and mindful approach, emphasizing the release of stored trauma, accessibility for bodies with limitations, and acceptance of one's present moment.
