As a keen enthusiast first and now as a licensed Trainer / Instructor, Marili Josie Amper shows you how Yoga is a sure and certain, life-changing formula for a better and happier life.
With a historical legacy of over 10,000 years, the yoga way to achieve mind and body harmony and health is irrefutable, giving it global acceptance and popularity.
Not satisfied with the health and fitness benefits of other systems, Marili soon found all the answers she was looking for in Yoga. It was her moment of truth.
There was an ancient science able to replace stress with peace and wellness, almost as if by magic, and rejuvenate the human body through its sustained, holistic healing process.
Not satisfied with other systems’ health and fitness benefits, Marili soon found all the answers she was looking for in Yoga. It was her moment of truth.
With a note of pride in her voice she says: “In the beginning, there were challenges of physical limitations, but with grit and hard work, I have been able to reach a comfortable level of expertise”.
Elaborating further, she adds: “Yoga’s positive energy has opened up a reservoir of a new, glowing confidence and charisma from within that helps me to stay centred and focused at all times”.
On the outside, it shows in her trim, lithe, and bubbling persona. And more importantly, her health problems have gone.

Earlier on, Marili had to contend with health issues concerning her hip and the digestive tract. The sustained folding of her body into different yogic poses, especially the Marichyasana, have worked wonders and helped her rid herself of these problems.
Marichyasana (easier to pronounce if it is split into two words “Marichi” the actual name of the sage or holy man and “asana’ or pose. The y is a reflexive, involuntary sound that occurs when the two words are joined and spoken as one word) is dedicated to the Sage Marichi. It calms your mind, extends your spine, and gives your internal organs a healthy squeeze.
According to Indian mythology, Sage or Rishi Marichi is the son of Brahma, the cosmic creator. He is also regarded as one of the seven great sages of Vedic times.
The name literally means a ray of light from either the moon or the sun. His grandson was the sun god Surya, the giver of life and his great-grandson was Manu, the father of humanity.
The first three letters of Manu are “man” which is a Sanskrit root word meaning ‘to think’, and it is this same Sanskrit root that gave birth to the English word ‘man’
Spurred on by her success, this petite and sprightly Filipina wants to share her joy and knowledge of yoga with others in the community and give her dream wings. Obviously, the best way forward is to someday start a top class yoga studio and training centre and call it the Marichyasana Yoga Foundation .
But her dreams don’t stop here. She also plans to set up a Yoga Scholarship Foundation for a much more rewarding experience for all.
What happens next? Who knows, for Marili is not one to sit back and rest on her oars. Perhaps she will continue looking for new ways to broaden and share her yoga experience with you and the world.
