Melissa Owens
Yin Yoga Instructor
Meet Melissa, I’m a mum of three, forever a Gypsy Soul. Melissa will be leading Wednesday evening Yin Yoga at 5:45 PM.
A long time yoga teacher whose intention is that when you are here, you hear my voice louder than your own self doubt. She loves deep conversations… and trashy TV (because life is about balance, right! She loves compliments, giving them and receiving them; because life isn’t always kind and that’s why it’s our job to be.
"I’m still becoming… and that excites me, meet me in the afterglow" -
