Your enthusiasm for yoga, and your passion, is evident in your teaching. Inspiring! Your guidance is good, and your quotations are always inspiring and suitable to the practice.

Melody's clear instructions leads me to go deeper into the postures guiding me to find the strength while reminding me to use my breath to find ease in the postures. Melody's classes are varied and well thought out. I enjoy how she brings the seasonal changes and themes into her classes. I find I am always learning something new about my practice and I look forward to her classes. Melody is a positive addition to Oceanside Yoga. I have had a massage from Melody as well. I left feeling energized while my muscles felt relaxed and well worked (knots worked out). Great massage.

I like the challenges, variety of poses and the ability to "recover" after being challenged. ie child's pose. I have been a yoga student for over 25 years and I find Melody's teaching very mature. I can tell she gives great thought to the class before teaching. The result is a smooth, journey to the end. I always leave feeling wonderful. Thanks Melody!
