MelMarie Yoga Teacher Training Programs are known for embodying the holistic nature of health, advanced education in mind body medicine and a focused approach on the therapeutic benefits through yoga and mindfulness. Students are equipped with curriculum informed by current research in Mind Body medicine, meaningful application of yoga philosophy, intelligent application of asana to aid health, rehabilitation, and vitality, and so much more. 

1:1 Mentoring. Vedic Philosophy. Professional Elevation. Self Care.

Imagine a program that supports your heart's desires, works directly with you to unpack patterns and tension that holds you back while teaching you how to utilize yoga poses, breathing practices, meditation, inquiry and other yogic techniques to not only elevate your world but others as well.

A person-centered experience, our program focuses on both equipping you in leading inclusive and impactful services in mindfulness, yoga and self care while applying it also for yourself. We believe in integrity and professional sustainability guiding you in connecting this work deeper into innovative domains and redefining what it means to be a yoga teacher. Where this work is not just something you do, but it is who you are. 

Mel's philosophy is that we must go through the body, connect with the heart and then we access the mind. Our approach is multi-domain to guide you in deepening into your practice while reaching the height of your dreams.

    My journey with Mel Marie has been remarkable. I am not the same person I was when I began the program. This transformative and incredible experience has enriched my knowledge and deepened my practice. I have learned so much and can’t wait to begin teaching yoga. The program's comprehensive approach and supportive environment truly set it apart. Highly recommended for anyone seeking profound personal and professional growth.

    MelMarie Yoga has several offering styles including online, hybrid and in-person. I needed to use the online style due to the fact that I was moving out of state. The teachers in this program are quite simply AMAZING. To get this high level quality for online course materials is very surprising. They all know their subjects and dive right in, keep it light and enjoyable, encourage questions and comments and are extremely dedicated to following up if they do not immediately have the answers. I have been a teacher during the Pandemic and I know what it is like to teach online. Never easy to get people to stay focused, etc. Mel and her staff absolutely go well beyond keeping us focused to the point of being engaging and excited to learn! I highly recommend MelMarie Yoga for anyone whether it be in-person or online. This is an excellent team of teachers and wonderfully developed materials, but best of all is the community that has been created for all of us! Thank you so much for your dedication to not only making this available, but for your dedication to delivering quality education for Yoga Teachers!

    I am so proud to be a graduate of MelMarie Yoga Academy. The curriculum was set in a wonderful pace and structure that was interesting, well-informed, and knowledgeable. I particularly loved the blend of modern science from studies and texts with the ancient principles. I took both my 200 and 500 with MelMarie and plan to continue my relationship with this school and its founder Mel, who is a light in this world!

    Mel Marie Yoga Academy is a fantastic program! I learned about self discovery through yoga, yoga philosophy, adaptive yoga therapy, and neuroscience. All the teachers are phenomenal, genuine, and know their fields to help you understand what you’re learning. I highly recommend Mel Marie Yoga Academy!
