Marc Huberman
Marc Huberman is an original finger-style, instrumental acoustic guitarist. Originally from the Bronx, NY, now residing in New Fairfield, CT. He graduated from Western Connecticut State University in '97, with a B.A. in Communications/Theater and Media Arts Degree- Cum Laude. After working in the business world for a number of years, he left corporate America in 2002; to pursue a career in music at the professional level.
The music he composes is very eclectic. It has evolved into a style he believes is his own; especially his finger-picking, back-brushing and percussive technique.
It has been categorized as thought-provoking, adult contemporary. It is all finger-style guitar; that has influences from new age, world, meditative, spiritual, adult contemporary, blues, jazz, funk, R&B, folk, classical, rock, heavy metal, Latin, Spanish, Indian, African, Asian and Middle Eastern, cultures; to name a few… Many compositions are driven by a very percussive element- which truly adds to the organic flow of each song or passage.
Marc performs throughout the east coast at music festivals, special events, charitable functions, weddings, numerous restaurants and yoga studios.
Marc’s CD, Look What's Around, was released in September '02. A DVD, live CD and new studio, full-length CD titled, Wonders of the Day, featuring 17 songs- are in the works for 2009. He is also working on recordings and a DVD custom-tailored for yoga.
He performs over 100+ gigs annually. Most notable performances include working with world-renowned saxophone legends, David Sanborn and the "Big Man" Clarence Clemens.

In addition to these projects, Marc Huberman and Kripalu certified yoga instructor, Aline Marie created and launched Acoustic Asanas in 2006.
Acoustic Asanas is a unique experience– The two hour workshop offers a Vinyasa Style moving meditation with guitar accompaniment. Marc plays each pose in sound, in tune and in harmony with every breath and movement. It is a very naturally-organic, healing experience.
This workshop was well received throughout yoga studios in Connecticut and New York.
In 2008, Aline had some other opportunities and endeavors that she wanted to pursue as well as bring her wonderful teaching style to the west coast. So what would happen to Acoustic Asanas?
Well to keep the spirit and energy alive, Marc and Aline began talking with her mentor, Gloria Owens; also a Kripalu certified instructor and the co-owner of YogaSpace in Brookfield, CT. This natural progression and perfect fit was very exciting to all parties involved.
Marc and Gloria have started offering the workshop at YogaSpace and plan to bring this great experience to a studio near you. Aline Marie is still very much a part of Acoustic Asanas. As this project continues to evolve, know that this is a work in progress that truly brings, mind, body and spirit together in a most healing way.
If you are interested in bringing Acoustic Asanas to your studio, retreat center, spa or private function, please call 203.770.0132 or email info@acousticasanas.com.
