Hey!

My name is Melissa and I am a yoga teacher. Other passions on mine include but are not limited to: music, nature, plants, nutrition, capoeira, music and arts festivals, the list can go on and on. I feel my best and most at peace when I am somewhere in nature.

"Nature is the one thing that makes me feel human."
A close friend of mine said this once and those words touched me deeply and I couldn't have agreed more.

Music, Movies, and Books

I can really never choose just a few favorite movies or books, let alone my favorite music. My tastes are always evolving; I am a lover of it all. When it comes to music I love everything from Slipknot to Etta James and everything in between. My cinematic tastes are just as diverse from shitty romantic comedies, to awesome independent films and documentaries. The same goes for books, although I do not read as much as I would like to.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Choosing to live a life with intention. I am on a journey to learn as much as I can about myself, people, and the beautiful world we live in. All while enjoying this amazing adventure we call life.

Teach, Learn, Share

Basically my motto in life.

Life is all about learning and always keeping our minds open to learning as much as we can. I love to learn and am always opening new avenues of things I am interested in. I love to diversify my knowledge. When we learn, it's about coming to the lesson with our cup empty so we can fill it up with all the knowledge we are being taught. Once this cup is full, we can pour it out and share this with others and help teach what we know to be true in life.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my passion for helping others by offering yoga and/or meditation sessions. I also love to cook and enjoying cooking for others as well and sharing the beauty of vegan food!
