Our Why.
Welcome to Satsang Collective! We’re Sam Riccio and Kelsey Marafioti, two Canandaigua natives who grew up as neighbors and have been best friends for life.
Our love for yoga and wellness took us on an incredible journey to Bali, Indonesia, where we immersed ourselves in a month-long, 200-hour yoga teacher training. Every day, we delved deep into the philosophy, anatomy, and methodology of yogic practice, transforming our understanding and passion for yoga.
Kelsey has spent over six years in marketing helping wellness brands build vibrant communities. As a certified holistic health coach, she’s all about nurturing the mind, body, and spirit. Her unique blend of fostering meaningful connections and supporting personal wellness ensures that everyone feels truly embraced and uplifted on their journey.
Sam brings a decade of experience in sustainability and environmental policy. Her passion for a healthier planet fuels the mission to integrate our connection with the natural world.
Our ethos at Satsang Collective is to support individuals in our community by equipping them with the tools, both physical and spiritual, to lead a more holistic and fulfilling life. We blend our unique backgrounds and our love for the Finger Lakes to offer a fresh take on yoga, meditation, and overall well-being.
Join us for a transformative experience, and let's create a vibrant, balanced life together. Come as you are, and let's grow together in our beautiful community.
