YOGA (All Levels) w/ Melissa Hammans

Introduction: I stepped into my first yoga class almost by accident right after moving to New York. Once discovered, yoga became the leveler for what oftentimes felt like an intense and chaotic life in a city like NYC. As my practice progressed, I found that it wasn't just a choice to go to class, but a homecoming-a feeling of connection, relationship, and strength. Yoga has taught me that the more we stay with the things that heal us, the richer our lives become. That happy accident turned into a nearly 15 year journey to the breath, recognizing the possibility within all of us, and ultimately meeting myself along the way. When I made the transition from NYC to Nashville, I never envisioned I would be training to be a yoga teacher with the likes of Saul David Raye and Raquel Maria Bueno and (Atma Yoga YTT). I teach 4 different classes at Liberation Yoga, as well as volunteering in and around Nashville at Preston Taylor Ministries, Mending Hearts, and more. As I move back and forth from student to teacher, I am reminded that we are all students/we are all teachers; regardless of status, position, training, etc. "Wow, I really wish I didn't practice yoga today.”- says no one ever... See y'all on the mat. I take great pride in being able to share this beautiful healing gift of yoga. Oftentimes, I am struck by how greatful I am to get to do this and be a part of someone else's journey. It is quite the gift. Our time will be tailored to your physical, emotional, and spiritual needs, incorporating pranayama (breath techniques), asana (physical postures/poses), meditation, and more! I look forward to hearing from you! Please let me know if you have any questions!
