Melissa Vadasserril (RYT 200)

Melissa’s first yoga experience was hot yoga. Growing up doing ballet and having experienced countless ankle sprains and lower leg injuries, she knew she needed to change how she treated her body. Hot Vinyasa offered something challenging for her endurance that was low impact. After practicing for a while, and finding it beneficial, she started really exploring different forms of yoga and investing a lot of time and energy into her practice. She still loves hot yoga and faster paced vinyasa but has learned to listen to her body and take time to work yin and restorative as well. Gaining her 200-hour teaching credentials in 2020, she aims to offer a teaching style that is “inclusive” and applicable to many body types.
