​My Approach

---

A perpetual student
I approach yoga like i approach life,
with an insatiable curiosity
and an open mind and heart. 

I teach a PLAYFUL, creative vinyasa
where laughter is encouraged
and fun is the pinnacle experience.
I hold space for the miraculous
and meet people where they are. 

Join me and experience
the joyful and sacred practice
of yoga for yourself.

hi there! i'm melissa... 

 ​i like to keep things simple.
i laugh often and out loud. 
i love completely and without condition. 
i think freedom lies in choice
and​ choice lies in every waking moment. 
and  there is nothing sweeter
than the present moment.
 ​
i choose to inspire and empower.
i practice mindfulness and forgiveness. 
i honor my intuition
and encourage others to do the same. 
i trust that the universe conspires with me
and try to see beauty in all things.
 ​
i model authenticity rather than perfection.
i embrace polarities and celebrate differences.
i am passionately curious
and hold experience as the ultimate authority.
​
i consider everyone whole and look at each new day
as an opportunity to move toward a truer,
​fuller expression of one's self.  ​
i believe far more is possible than we could ever imagine.

my world is gray, not black and white.
i speak my truth softly, knowing that it changes.
i listen closely, especially to silence.
i walk with purpose and connect.
i make love the bottom line.
