THE STUDIO SPACE
A Sanctuary Built
for Whole-Person Healing
South Plainfield, NJ
The Institute studio is a purpose-built, intimate wellness environment. With a dedicated movement studio, a quiet restorative room, a private coaching nook, and a reflective wellness corner, every inch of this space is designed to support your practice — whether you are attending a class, working one-on-one with Marie, or deepening your own stillness.
Classes are kept intentionally small — a maximum of six participants — so every session receives the depth of attention it deserves. This is not a gym. This is a sanctuary.
"This space was intentionally designed to hold every dimension of your wellness journey — from movement and stillness to reflection and connection."
- Marie Benjamin, Founder
