Hi, I'm Melissa.
Living with autoimmune issues, chronic illness, or pain is challenging, to say the least. Through my own autoimmune journey, yoga and meditation have helped me learn how to trust myself as I became more embodied.By listening and responding to my ever-changing body with compassion, as well as humor and therapy, I began to change my mindset and spirit.It's my passion to offer classes which encourage embodiment and accessibility. I encourage you to become curious about how to make each pose feel the best for your body without judgment or comparison.I'm a certified 500-hour yoga teacher from Brett Larkin's Uplifted program. Prior to my yoga teacher training, I practiced yoga, meditation, and mindfulness years before my autoimmune diagnosis.

"I have chronic illnesses and finding people who can help me in my recovery and maintenance who truly have an understanding of this experience is important to me. Melissa knows how to provide a full yoga experience for my goals and limitations and I can feel the difference in my nervous system by the end of a session. Working with Melissa is not like going to a yoga class at the gym; her sessions have a healing quality to them that I much prefer. Thank you, Melissa!"

Frequently asked questions

Can I practice yoga if I'm in a flare?

Great question. I encourage you to ask your doctor if you are able to practice restorative yoga, such as Yin Yoga or Yoga Nidra.

I don't have props or yoga blocks. Can I still practice?

Yes! You can use sturdy books and/or pillows to help you ease into a stretch. Blankets, pillows (and more pillows), and an eye mask are some of favorite props to use when practicing Yoga Nidra.
