Meloni Kinckner - Meloni found her yoga practice in 2016 after a decade of struggling with anxiety and depression. A friend encouraged her to take a hot yoga class and after just one 75-minute session, she knew yoga was something she wanted to explore more. She was immediately in love with the grounding, deeply introspective experience yoga provided. When you practice with Meloni, you can expect a strong focus on pranayama, mindful movement and encouragement to incorporate the principles of yoga into your life, both on and off the mat.

Krissy Gutowski - I have been teaching for almost 8 years. The thing that I love most about yoga is that there is always room to grow. The journey never ends and I learn more about myself each and every day. I’m grateful to be able to create space for others to find themselves along their path as well.

Nicole Leigh-Wargo Nicole is a “National Academy of Sports Medicine (nasm)” certified personal trainer, as well as a certified sports nutrition coach through “Precision Nutrition”.

Monica Lynn - Monica was first introduced to yoga in 2005. After many years of practicing and exploring different types of yoga, Monica found herself with a consistent Vinyasa practice. Her Vinyasa practice was not only strenuous, but a way for her to fully connect mind, body, and spirit, as well as reduce stress and anxiety. She strives to create a safe and supportive environment for all populations, while offering challenging and mindful classes. She is passionate about sharing yoga with the community and believes that yoga can truly bring transformation to our lives.

Brittany Rodak - Brittany began practicing yoga in 2015 as a means of increasing mobility and strengthening her core after a severe car accident the year before. Yoga allowed Brittany to witness a profound change in her back pain and flexibility - then she began to notice how she had changed mentally as well. Brittany hopes to help students discover love for the practice and for themselves; learning to meet every challenge with deep breaths, while finding inner stillness and strength.

Bev Stanton – Bev has strived to stay fit throughout her life. An enthusiastic former long-distance runner, she started practicing yoga as a way to cross train for races. She loves the peace of mind her practice brings, as well as the conditioning that strengthens the body without the stress that running and weightlifting places on the joints. Yoga has become an increasingly important part of both her physical and mental fitness regimens. In the summer, you will find her practicing on the beach and on her paddle board. She is truly grateful for the opportunity to help her students develop their practices and find their inner strength.

Richard Garrison began teaching after having been involved in a serious accident in 2007. Working safely back to pre-accident levels of ability helped him cultivate an appreciation and deeper understanding of proper technique to avoid and work with injuries. Rich has had extensive experience with various modalities of yoga but cites his training in the Anusara style as being the most beneficial to enhancing the experience of students. Anusara was a hatha yoga system that emphasized alignment and a "celebration of the heart." The lessons learned here and those from the Pranakriya style with Yoganad Michael Carrol are what he draws upon most during classes. Also a massage therapist by trade, Richard is hands on while teaching and very skilled in adjustment/assisting as well as brief massage for students who are open to touch. Participants should expect a mindful, challenging, and enjoyable atmosphere in which to practice. Though alignment is emphasized the classes flow beautifully in a way that builds on those proper foundations.

Maria Eble - Maria was first introduced to yoga back when she was a full time math teacher and fell in love with the physical aspects of the practice. Years later as a full-time Mom, she rediscovered yoga and was excited to get back to a regular yoga practice. She quickly discovered not only the physical transformation that yoga allowed her, but the mental and spiritual, as well. After years of battling depression and anxiety, Maria found a sense of peace and calm she had previously thought to be unattainable. It was this mind-body and spiritual connection that made Maria, after only a little more than a year of regular practice, enter into teacher training in Spring 2015. She graduated from Dana Hot Yoga's teacher training in June 2015. The training was life-changing for Maria and excited her even more to share this wonderful practice with others. In Maria's classes, you can expect a challenging and fun Vinyasa flow, appropriate for all levels, that explores all the amazing things that yoga has to offer.

Mykola Webster, M.Ed/RYT-500 Bio. Mykola is first, a lifelong student of yoga and then a teacher. There is no life without yoga, yoga is life. Sat Nam. This is something Mykola believes wholeheartedly and strives to share with those that meet themselves on the mat while practicing with her. Mykola holds a strong belief that through the breath we can do all things and in the stillness and quiet of the breath is where self growth and exploration begin. Additionally, as a Yoga Therapist, Mykola allows the therapeutics of this healing practice to holistically connect you to your inner most self, setting the stage for deep, self introspection. Mykola’s background of extensive travel and living in Costa Rica while working at a Yoga and Wellness Retreat Center has allowed her to serve all different types of people from all over the globe. She brings this international spirit to her classes and to all who she meets. Since returning to the states Mykola lives a life of constant self study and with her little guy Blaise who is her reason and inspiration for all that she does. A class facilitated by Mykola will move the body through a vibrant and strong yet tranquil and soft asana that allows the body to give effort and then surrender to the healing effects of a well rounded yoga practice.
