Melanie Hyman Yoga

Potentiate your well being through a transformational mind/body/breath experience.

Melanie has been teaching, mentoring and training students throughout Westchester County for the past 17 years. She spent her childhood and young adult life studying gymnastics, movement and dance and has always found a tremendous amount of freedom, insight and joy through movement. Melanie graduated from Syracuse University where she created her own major combining movement, psychology and education. After completing a masters from NYU in dance and movement therapy, she pursued yoga as a way of transcending her love for movement into meditation. In 2003 she was fortunate enough to find a mentor in Nevine Michaan at Katonah Yoga Center, where she has taught and been studying for over 16 years. With a strong focus on breath consciousness and alignment, drawing from multiple movement modalities and yoga traditions, Melanie encourages students to flow with depth, creativity and playfulness. She hopes to help her students potentiate their well-being and gain insight through a transformative mind/body/breath experience.
