Marguerite Baca
Comedian & Keynote Speaker CA
Marguerite Baca has blended her dual life as a yogini stand up comedian. At age thirteen, she began a dedicated yoga and meditation practice. Having a family history rich in show business, she also trained in acting, dancing, singing, and went on to perform on TV, in bands, and theatre. Eventually, she began teaching yoga classes in Los Angeles, where she was born and raised. Being chosen by a scout from Paramount Studios, to create and feature in a yoga video for the Buns of Steel/Warner Bros label, was a catalyst for her career. She’s forever branded, “Baca Buns.” After being hired by the authors of Yoga for Dummies, as a model and photo shoot consultant, she realized the humor in these published titles. After moving to San Diego, she was scouted and recruited by a female officer to be the first yoga teacher at the Marine Corps. After years of performing on stage and teaching yoga, her dual life has blended. She’s been invited to bring her comedy to the Sedona Yoga Festival for a third year in a row. She entertains in comedy clubs, at health conferences, film festivals, corporations, fundraising, and regularly M.C.’s for burlesque shows. She also delivers her clean and relevant comedy to universities and churches, keeping it fresh at The Church of What’s Happenin’ Now!
