Melanie first started yoga at a local gym back in 1996.  From that point she experimented withdifferent styles of yoga and spent several years practising Ashtanga Yoga.  Subsequently she has come to more foundational Hatha, Vinyasa flow and Yin yoga. 

Melanie’s wanted to deepen her knowledge of all aspects of yoga; which brought her to the decision to become a teacher and complete her 200 hour teacher training with Red Hot Yoga Guildford. 

Melanie is an advocate of how yoga can bring balance intoyour life and help you manage the demands that everyday life can bring.  Being a keen cyclist and gardener, yoga also provides the perfect balance to stretch out those weary muscles after a big ride or lots of weeding. 

Over the years Melanie was a regular student of Rachel Alves and Liz Lark.  She has attended several workshops with Simon Low, Jean Hall, Norman Blaire as well as numerous yoga retreats with Liz Lark & Clarissa Ord. 

Melanie’s classes are based on a sequence of the Hatha postures along with some Vinyasa flow, as well as revisiting the core fundamentals of the alignment of postures.  She also ensures that the classes have the necessary relaxation elements to enable students to get back the balance and calmness they need to navigate through life.
