MELISSA
Yoga Instructor Melissa has been practicing and studying yoga for 17 years. She completed her RYT-200 program in South Bend, Indiana and is Reiki certified. She is drawn to her mat for the healing power of balancing the mind and body through asana and meditation. She loves how the practice of yoga can be taken outside of your mat into all aspects of life. When teaching, her classes are informed by her own practice, ongoing study in multiple disciplines, and travel. When she’s not teaching or practicing yoga, you can find her in her 5th grade classroom, hiking, or spending time with family. |
GRACE
Yoga Instructor Practicing Yoga for 16 years, Grace completed her 200-hour Yoga teacher training at Center for Yoga under Jonny Kest, and is honored to be able to teach her students how to find peace within themselves and work muscles they didn’t know they had! What she likes most about Yoga is there is no “end” or perfect pose. The students who can do a headstand have just as much to learn as the students who can’t touch their toes, which is why she tries to bring the attitude of self-discovery, challenge, fun and consciousness to every class. 
CARA
Yoga Instructor Cara began her journey with yoga when Twisted Tree Yoga Room opened their doors October 2016. She started out as the studio marketing coordinator. The more she discovered the benefits of practicing yoga, the more involved she became with the practice itself. In order to expand her knowledge on this ancient practice Cara sought education through Yoga Fit, completing her certification in December 2017. She has a passion for teaching slow flow classes focusing on the breath and quieting the mind.

Her passion for yoga grew after having children, realizing that yoga was a healthy way to relieve stress and stay balanced. Beth's classes involve helping others energize their bodies through heart pounding vinyasa, followed by calming their hearts and minds through the meditative practice of yin yoga. When Beth isn't on her mat you will probably find her in the woods, her favorite spot. Geocaching, hiking, camping or just dancing through the trees. 
BRACHA
Yoga Instructor Bracha started her yoga journey over 11 years ago when she discovered she could breathe without a fight! She knew she wanted to share this life-changing experience with everyone who’d let her. To that end, she started the certification process with YogaFit. She began teaching in 2011 in a manner that shares yoga’s relaxing and energizing qualities. When she’s not in the yoga classroom she loves a good book, cooking healthy delicious meals and spending time with family and friends. Throw in a long walk on the beach and she’s an extra happy camper. |
