She is a leader of numerous Dahn Yoga sessions, stars in a DVD produced by the Dahn Yoga community and funded by a hospital, engages in outreach programs and helps individuals of all ages feeler fitter and less stressed. Marion Goddard can seemingly do it all, and at 74, she shows little indication of slowing down.
A retiree and long-time Dahn Yoga member, Goddard is happy to help people of any background get into the habit of stretching, breathing deeply and reconnecting their bodies and minds. Her proactive commitment to the program belies her personality, which she described as introverted.
Nevertheless, Goddard has been a model yoga instructor for many members of her community, while somehow finding the time to write articles for local newspapers and to participate in a walking group.
Teaching yoga "is so meaningful because it helps you grow when you actively reach outside of your own social group and connect with diverse people," she said.
Goddard added that bringing yoga to others helped her break out of her shell, revealing stores of personal energy, compassion and happiness that she never knew she had.
