Exploring the Science and Psychology of Yoga
Machelle’s unique teaching style is a synthesis of her extensive education and personal experience, joining the principles of Taoism, meridian theory, modern science, depth psychology, and mythology through the art of movement. Machelle weaves poetry and science through the practice of Yin Yoga and Vinyasa as a means of bridging the gap between the rational mind and the soulful body in a creative and grounded approach to self-development.

I have had the privilege of attending many classes, workshops, and teacher trainings skillfully led by Machelle. Her welcoming studio provides a safe container for deep exploration and joyful self-discovery. Machelle takes a personal interest in each of her students and shares her vast wealth of knowledge and experience generously. I leave her offerings with improved skills as a yoga teacher and as a human being. I am always thirsting for more!
