About Marita Greenidge

Marita Greenidge is the founder of Ekam Wellness, a yoga and wellness practice based in Barbados with a primary focus on outdoor, nature-led experiences. As a certified yoga instructor (200-hour YTT) with over six years of teaching experience, Marita is passionate about sharing yoga as a practical tool for stress relief, nervous system regulation, and whole-person wellbeing.

Through Ekam Wellness, Marita creates grounding, accessible sessions that invite people to slow down, reconnect with their bodies, and experience calm in the midst of daily life. While outdoor yoga is central to her approach, sessions are thoughtfully adapted to meet individuals and groups where they are.

Alongside her work with Ekam Wellness, Marita serves as the Marketing & Communications Manager for the International Association of Yoga Therapists (IAYT), an international non-profit advancing yoga therapy through research and education. In this role, she serves as the conference lead, guiding the planning and execution of major conferences focused on the science and practical application of yoga for health and healing.

Before fully stepping into the wellness space, Marita worked for more than 10 years in corporate sales and marketing, leading regional teams and supporting major brands. This experience shaped her passion for offering yoga as an effective tool for stress reduction and nervous system support.

In addition to public classes, Ekam Wellness partners with organisations and community groups to bring yoga to teams looking to enhance performance, support recovery, and cultivate healthier, more resilient environments.

Marita's sessions in the Botanical Gardens are ideal for busy professionals, moms balancing daily demands, travelers seeking mindful movement, or anyone navigating high-stress environments.
