Melissa Lido

Through a steady and consistent home practice, she quickly discovered that yoga imbued her with an overall improved sense of well-being and deeper connection to her own spirituality. She has completed yoga teacher training through the 500 hour level, gaining her initial certification in 2010 with Dharma Richards of the Yoga Garden School of Yoga. Melissa’s mission is to provide students with opportunities to discover new possibilities and transform themselves spiritually, mentally, and physically through the science of yoga. Melissa’s classes come from a place of patience, love, and joy. She offers her students classes rooted in creative and well-rounded asana sequences, breathwork, and meditation. By cultivating a supportive class environment, she encourages students to be true to themselves, acknowledge and honor the teacher within, and tap into a sense of deep awareness that ultimately leads to self-realization. Melissa offers seasonal rituals to celebrate the Wheel of the Year, private and semi-private yoga classes, Reiki sessions, special workshops, yoga teacher training modules, and continuing education for yoga teachers. When Melissa is not practicing yoga, she's teaching high school Latin, preparing vegan food, walking in the woods, or scuba diving. She is a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) with Yoga Alliance, which acknowledges the completion of a yoga teacher training with an approved and active Registered Yoga School (RYS).
