Melainya's love for yoga was instantaneous. After struggling with body image issues since childhood, yoga initially provided Melainya with an opportunity to appreciate her physical container and to honor its strength. Through practicing, Melainya discovered the connection between mind, body, and spirit and learned how to use the body to calm and quiet the mind.
Melainya attended YogaMotion Academy and was certified and registered as a yoga educator in May of 2015. As a lifelong student of yoga, Melainya continues to seek avenues of growth; she is currently working towards her 500-hour certification and enrolled in a two year meditation teacher certification program. She is grateful for the opportunity to share yoga, both the physical practice and the philosophy, with all those who desire increased knowledge. . . always learning, always growing.
Melainya teaches our Restorative Yoga class on Wednesdays at 10 a.m. and our very popular Gentle Yoga class on Fridays at 10 a.m.
