Melissa is an international experienced and passionate yoga teacher, banker, entrepreneur, daughter, sister and much more.

She believes that we all share a desire for a meaningful, fulfilling life. Her vision is to bring people closer to their natural being. Because everything we need for this is within us.

We do our best every day with our families, friends and at work. But there are areas that seem to us as if we have no control over them. 

With a conscious and self-determined mindset, we can better recognise and change these areas. That's why she teaches Yoga (styles are Hatha, Vinyasa and Yin), meditation and breathing techniques, to bring deeper awareness, clarity and start personal development. It has been passed on by yogiinis for around 3,500 years - because it works. She studied with experienced teachers worldwide and participated in in-depth courses.
