Practice Philosophy: After years of wanting to participate in a yoga community and struggling to find the right home for my body, I found a suitable home with people, ethics, and practices that felt safe. I completed my yoga teacher training with Lori Hernandez in 2025. She trained with Baron Baptiste in the Baptiste tradition of Power Yoga– an offshoot of the Ashtanga tradition. I now focus on creating space for playful and joyful movement for queer, fat, and disabled peoples. In a Mel class, you can expect to find slow thoughtful flows inspired by Power Yoga and vinyasa.
