Jaime was born and raised in Knowlton where she now co-owns Marina Knowlton with her father. She began teaching yoga in 2009 after completing her first training, Yoga for the Special Child, and quickly fell in love with sharing movement with people of all ages and abilities. Since then, she has added trainings in Hatha, Prana Flow, Yin Yoga, and Yoga at the Workplace, always with a focus on accessibility and connection. 

Recently trained as a reformer Pilates teacher, Jaime brings the same curiosity and care to her Pilates classes. Whether she’s teaching yoga or Pilates, her favourite part is helping people get to know themselves better by tuning into what their bodies need in the moment. She often weaves themes like creativity, intention, and freedom into her classes to spark deeper self-awareness and joy.

Passionate about movement and the harmony of body and mind, she teaches both mat and Reformer Pilates. Through her classes, she invites each person to explore body awareness, reconnect with themselves, and strengthen their body deeply, always with respect for their own abilities.

Her approach blends precision, fluidity, and breath, offering a practice that is both comprehensive and progressive. Each session is a journey where we cultivate balance—between strength, flexibility, and mental well-being.

Her mission is to create a caring and supportive space where everyone can progress at their own pace, rediscover alignment, and feel fully present in their body.

Marie Neige has lived many “lives” along her path. From the performing arts to language studies, from massage therapy to Ayurveda and meditation, one thread remains constant. Each career has led her to teach, and each teaching has brought her back to being a student.

Her anchor? Communication.

She is currently deepening her studies with Dr. Vasant Lad at the prestigious Ayurvedic Institute, continuing to honour what truly moves her: connection, feeling, and transmission.
