Melissa found yoga through a group of trail running-friends nearly a decade ago. The first class she ever experienced was a power vinyasa.  The pure bliss she felt in the last posture (savasana), a reward of working hard and exploring something that was way outside of her comfort zone was exhilarating and yet peaceful. This sparked her desire to immerse herself in yoga and to allow it to become a way of life, rather than just a class.
