Melynda was born and raised in Boise, Idaho where she started ballet at a very young age. She studied ballet into her early twenties where she transitioned to teaching younger students and adults. Melynda has always had a natural talent of engaging and explaining complex routines to all age groups which organically has led her to her true passion, yoga. Melynda has always been a yogi at heart she has consistently been taking classes since high school but it wasn’t until her late twenties when she really discovered her own desire to teach yoga. After her college dance studies she transitioned studying yoga and wellness. Melynda has lived in Idaho, Georgia, Texas and now Washington, through which she has learned that what makes all these vastly different states similar is the peoples love for yoga and the community that comes from it. Melynda’s passion for yoga and fitness has pushed her to take YTT200, barre and Pilates instructor level classes. Her level of commitment to yoga and her willingness to help the community grow has helped her grow more in her own practice than she could have ever imagined. Melynda is known for her soft soothing voice and easy to follow instructions. She focuses on breathing, meditation and finding your own bodies center for a truly unique experience. When you take one of Melynda’s Yoga classes you can whole heartedly feel her love for the practice and her eagerness to help others find themselves.
