Founder of Gal.X.e Wellness and co-owner of Eight Limbs Center, Marissa Steiner, began practicing yoga in college, initially just out of curiosity but ultimately to cope with emotional distress and chronic pain. 

​

Marissa attended the University of Maine at Orono, graduating with her Bachelors in Social Work in 2013, Masters in Social Work (with a minor in disabilities studies) in 2015, and graduated her 200 hour yoga teacher training in 2020. She completed her first Priestess "year and a day" in 2026 working with Hekate.

​

She specializes in a blended approach to wellness using Western therapy methods, combined with Eastern Yogic Philosophy, and witchcraft, to create unique, and enriching, opportunities that are rooted in wellness and inspired by living.
