They are the founders of Inner Light Yoga & Health Co, www.innerlightyoga.co.uk, a UK based company offering Yoga and Pilates classes, events and holidays (in Spain, Turkey, Morocco and Sweden), www.yogapilatesholidays.com. Rose-Marie has also developed her own specialist method of Back Care and Stress Release; The Sorokin Method, www.sorokinmethod.com. (under construction)

Rose-Marie says,
'I came across The Shakti Mat in my search for tools that could help with muscular tension and back problems, as this is a specialist area of mine. A friend in Sweden recommended The Shakti Mat and I bought one immediately and tried it out. I was amazed! I tried it on my back and after just a few minutes a deep and wonderful heat developed. All the tension in my back and neck dissapeared and afterwards I slept like a baby. I realised that I had come across something very unique and helpful for anyone suffering from back problems, tension, stress, insomnia etc. I have used it every day since and I can highly recommend it!'

The man behind the mat

How did it begin?

With a past as a performance artist at the circus (acrobat and juggler)
and massage therapist and Reiki healer I was once travelling and found
the most beautiful and harmonious place in the Himalayas. After a long
time spent in the Himalayas practicing mysticism, yoga and meditation
I found that nothing is complete until all fellow human beings can
experience living in deep happiness. During the past few years
I have exclusively been focusing on different yoga practices
and meditations.
I wandered down from the mountain and created a bed of nails
with the help of the ancient Indian knowledge, Vedic science which
was recorded 5-7000 years ago.

The bed of nails was named Shakti which means energy, power,
creativity and compassion, which I hope it will give you all.
 
May you all be happy with this wonderful tool created to
reach a more complete existence. - Om Mokshanada
