What Our People Say

I believe the stars aligned for me to have been given this opportunity to take the 200 Hour YTT. I am so grateful that it all worked out the way it did. I attribute so much of my ability to cope with the sudden rush of changes that 2020 has bombarded the world with (the COVID-19 pandemic, social and civil unrest, and devastating and harsh weather events and the unknown future related to this extraordinary events) to this training and my yoga practice. I need Yoga now more than ever…I want to help others find their true selves and their divine connection to the Universe, through Yoga!
Kiyomi M.
How many times do you get to fulfill a dream?…and then it finally happens! Thank goodness for the pandemic, an opportunity for me to truly bloom-in-place, while taking this 200 Hour Training. Thank you goes to Liz Bernstein who referred me to Marie Mathieson, of West Palm Beach, FL….no less – the other side of the US (student lives in CA). I have changed dramatically in my commitment to Yoga, as a part of my daily life. I don’t feel ‘right” if I don’t engage in some aspect of Yoga each day. I have become physically stronger, mentally more alert and spiritually more in tune with even more components of spiritual threads necessary for me each day!!
Mimi B.
This program, through the way Soul Space introduces students to the history of Yoga, the terminology, etc. and the discussions throughout the training, helped me better define my sense of Self and my belief system. Open and candid conversations led to my ability to continue my journey of self-discovery, in a way I did not think possible. The safe and loving atmosphere during the weekends we spent together helped me to gain self confidence and open up in way that I have not done before. Marie’s commitment to her teaching and to her students’ education and understanding of Yoga is evident in the entire program.
David B.
My experience of training with Marie during the whole program (contact and non-contact hours) has been amazing, I appreciate her choice of books for this program and her book recommendations during the training. Marie told me more than once that she would always be available if I wanted to discuss the content covered in the program, even long after the training was done. I really appreciate her offer. I have the utmost gratitude towards her for guiding me through this training and helping me to grow along the way.
Ying X.
Marie is absolutely amazing and beyond reproach. Her teaching style is exemplary, detailed and tailored to not just meet the criteria outlined, but to immerse the student deeply into the training, after the contact hours end. I cannot say enough about how transformational being taught by Marie has been. She is beyond amazing and truly skilled. My time in her 200hr Soul Purpose yoga teacher training has been invaluable. I am honored to have been under her tutelage.
Autumn L.
I enjoyed Marie’s training tremendously, she teaches with her heart full of passion, making complex concepts so enjoyable and easy to understand, that you could connect them to your everyday life as a yoga teacher. The space for discussion and exchange of ideas is superb. This training is perfect for someone that wants to deepen Yoga (Yin) philosophy concepts, discuss sequences and understand the science behind it.

I’m in Yin Yoga Heaven after taking the 15 hour Yin Yoga Teacher Training at @soulspacewpb in downtown West Palm Beach, Florida. Marie Mathieson is a beautiful, inspiring teacher and she teaches from her heart and soul space. I learned so much from her and my classmates that were also all yoga teachers. We were able to share stories and insights with each other to dive deeper into the practice. I loved coming back to the foundations of the koshas (the energy body), the Meridians, anatomy, assists, and learning some new poses and transitions especially with props and utilizing the wall. Remaining still, having an inward focus, reaching meditative states, deep calm, and bliss are some of the many reasons I love this practice. I highly recommend you experience this place of heaven on earth for yourself. When you understand that the universe is energy, frequency, and vibration you will deeply understand Yin Yoga. Get into your “Issues in the Tissues” with Yin Yoga at Soul Space.
Ashley Rose G.
In August 2018, I started my 300 hour training at Soul Space Yoga & Wellness which has drastically changed how I teach and how I feel about myself as a teacher. My 200 hour training only scratched the surface and left me eager to learn more. When I met Marie Mathieson, I knew she was the guide that I wanted to learn from. Marie’s passion and love for yoga is obvious to see and feel. Throughout this training I gained knowledge about anatomy, sanskrit, mantras, the Panchakoshas, Yoga Sutra of Patanjali and the list goes on. But what do this training truly do for me? I found confidence and my voice. Before the training, if you asked me to teach a slow flow, a gentle or yoga 101, I felt hesitant. I felt unsure of myself. Even after guiding classes, I felt concerned that no one liked the flow or I could have done better. Now, I truly believe I have the knowledge to teach these classes, take on workshops, and even lead trainings. Through this training, I have found the belief in my own teach abilities, which made me a stronger and more effective teacher. Now, I feel the opportunities are endless.

I found yoga a long time ago and it changed my life. I found Marie years afterwards, and she changed the way I approached life. I was always interested in yoga teacher training (more to deepen my practice and my understanding of yoga than to become a teacher), but I never had the urge to actually invest in something that seemed so intense and so full of sharing thoughts and feelings with other people I barely knew. Within months of meeting Marie, I signed up to train for my 200-hour and soaked up every minute of it. She provided a thorough training program, and held conversations on theory and philosophy that helped me digest my assigned readings, as well as, see other perspectives that I would have never arrived at on my own. I’m not a very outgoing person outside the studio, but Marie created a community within our class that made me comfortable to voice my questions, my thoughts and my frustrations – because everyone has some during this process. Yoga teacher training forces you to take a look at yourself just as much as your practice. Marie is an incredible guide and provides assistance as she teaches. She really gets into the anatomy aspect of yoga during training so that you can truly understand what you are asking people to do during a sequence. She taught me correct methods for adjustments, and gave me confidence to actually assist someone – and to know whether that someone needed a simple tap on the shoulder for attention or a full, two-handed twist of the upper body. Marie is thoughtful, mindful, heartfelt and smart. And her method of teaching embodies all of those traits. I always think back to things she told me, whether during my training or after I continued to practice as her student, when I am looking for insight, in both yoga and life in general.

If you really want to learn the purpose of Yoga and confident in starting your journey as a yoga instructor, Soul Space Yoga & Wellness is the place to learn! Marie is a very knowledgeable person with great teaching techniques and a huge love for Yoga and the community
Catalina R.CEO
This experience has changed me in the most beautiful ways, from the music that I surround myself with, to the way I carry. I can truly say, I have a new outlook on life….I have learn to be patient with my body and mind, knowing that everything happens for a reason. Thank you for opening my eyes, Marie!
Kristina K.
Soul Purpose Yoga Teacher Training allowed an environment that fostered sharing and dialogue. I learned a lot from Marie, outside of the materials taught in class. Her patience and overall sense of ease, happiness and appreciation of people and life is amazing and admirable and somehow rubbed off me (or I admired it so much that I changed my perspective and behavior.
Halle A.
I joined this training for my own growth in my practice, to learn more about the philosophy from ancient teachings of yoga, which I did but what happened was far more than I expected. The training is rich, the discussion time we all shared, having beautiful conversations, learning from one another was such an honor. This experience is one that I will cherish for the rest of my life.
