Meet Our Compassionate Instructors

Alexandria Bell

Hi, I'm Alexandria,

Originally from Houston, TX, I bring a warm, welcoming presence to every class I teach - the kind that makes beginners feel instantly at ease and more experienced yogis feel truly seen. I've spent the past five years as an elementary school teacher, and that background shows up in how I guide a room: patient, encouraging, and genuinely attentive to where each student is on any given day.

I started practicing yoga in 2020, and what began as part of my own healing journey grew into a deep passion for sharing the practice with others. I've been a certified instructor since 2023 and recently became a certified personal trainer as well. This combination shapes how I approach movement on the mat: yoga isn’t just about becoming more flexible, limber, and agile, it’s also about building real strength. I'm passionate about making yoga feel accessible to every body and curating inclusive experiences for the community. 

Koreen Marshall

Yoga, Energy, and Plant Medicine Healer | Herbalist | Oracle Reader

Koreen has studied yoga, plant medicine ceremonies, herbalism, reiki, and other spiritual modalities since 2009. She was certified by Dragonfly Yoga (RYT200) at River Rock Yoga & Pilates in 2019, and she has spent a decade studying with various reiki and ceremony healers and shamans around the US and Mexico. She has developed her own form of magical craft, as she’s heavily studied and participated in various world religions. She believes all walks of life are true, valid, and interwoven; and that the development of one's own personal practice - which will ebb and flow through life's seasons - is key to a blissful, fulfilling life.

Koreen is the founder of Soultribe, KékalaYoga, Kéki Healing, & KékalApothecary. In her classes, you can expect to tap into your divine flow (Kékala means “dancer” in Sanskrit), as she teaches in a way that delicately marries sacred, intentional breathwork and movement with elemental, earth-based rituals. Her classes invite freedom, vulnerability, and fun through fluid dance and emotional release. Koreen reminds us to slow down, feel the fullness of each pose, merging Yin (held poses) with Vinyasa (moving with the breath) creating what she calls “Yinyasa.” She uses her gifts in aura and oracle reading to tailor each class to the individual’s needs, blessing and cleansing the energy and space before, during, and after each session with blessed herbs, oils, crystals, and water. She offers products from her Apothecary, which range from herbal remedies, skincare, hygiene, and cleaning products - all organic, homemade, and free of harmful chemicals! Koreen is also available for private Kéki healing sessions, which include bodywork, energy clearing, meditation, and sound bath.

Soultribe is an intentional community in-the-making on the MS Gulf Coast, where she creates safe spaces for everyone to share their craft, love, support, and magic with all! She practices sustainable living, food forestry, and teaching humanity the powers of self-healing through metaphysical practices, promoting body positivity and radical self-expression. She believes in bringing primal nature and human consciousness into harmony to create a new paradigm. She’s learned some amazing tools to aid in resolving conflicts, and these techniques, in combination with conscious movement and breathwork, can create heaven on earth. It’s Soultribe's ultimate mission to regrow the Garden of Eden!
