Melissa Talleda
Melissa Talleda began her yoga practice as a young teenager on the east coast. While studying dance, she found yoga as a way to find more strength and flexibility to complement her practice, but yoga soon became her main focus. Yoga provided an outlet in which she felt fully in control of her own body, and began to feel a connection between body, mind, and spirit. After exploring various styles and studios, Melissa found a place where she felt at home in Baltimore. It was there when she learned the value of connecting with not only her personal practice, but with an entire community of yogis.
