About Me
I am a registered and insured yoga teacher dedicated to helping others break free of mental habit patterns that lead to stress and poor health. Using basic movement and breath awareness, my classes are geared towards easing tension, focusing the mind, and leaving every student feeling lighter and more energized.
Over the last 25 years, I tried various styles of yoga, but n became a lifestyle when I moved to Santa Monica and started practicing at Bryan Kest’s Power Yoga studio. Classes were offered on donation basis in a huge room that “packed in” anywhere from 50-80 people. There were 18-year-olds and 80-year-olds, rich and poor, black and white, practicing mat-to-mat for 90 plus minutes! No music. No beginner or advanced levels. Simply a skilled teacher that led us on a journey through every nook and cranny in the body. No matter how crazy and intense your day might have been, by the end of the class, you were floating out the door.
Other than my use of playlists, my teaching style emulates my yoga role models. Besides Bryan Kest and Travis Eliot with whom I completed my 200 hour teacher training, I discovered Sarahjoy Marsh in 2023. In 2023-2024, I completed a 300 hour Professional Yoga Training with Sarahjoy. The training included 140 hours of yoga psychology training in ayurveda, neuroscience, adaptive yoga and mindfulness techniques.
Since moving back to New Jersey, I love practicing and teaching at Hot or Not Yoga in Manahawkin. I also love teaching Chair Yoga classes. Learning to respect and appreciate our beautiful aging process is 100% advanced yoga!
Yoga for every body!
In 2022, Angela began teaching Chair Yoga to active seniors in 55+ communities. In her senior classes, where the average age is 77, Angela is known for bringing a sweetness and sense of humor to her routines while at the same time, offering opportunities for students to go beyond perceived limitations that prevent many of them from living their best years in optimal health.

TESTIMONIALS
"Using the breathing practices we learned in class, I find myself better able to clear my mind and invoke sleep faster. It is an unexpected joy to initiate sleep and stay asleep simply by adjusting the way I breathe." ~Kathi M., age 73
"In the 7 months that I have been regularly attending these classes, my balance has improved significantly. My strength and breathing have improved tremendously. I can stand longer and stretch further than before these classes. Angela’s knowledge and calm, sweet and pleasant demeanor make these sessions a joy."
~Terri R., age 65
"We are the luckiest group of yogis, at Sunrise Bay because of our special instructor Angela Maguire. Every Thursday morning we experience a chair yoga class for mind and body that gives us strength and inner peace. Our angel is Angela and we love this class." ~Beverly D., age 77
