Yoga Instructor
Having graduated from Concordia University, with a Bachelor Degree in Sociology, Certificate in Family Life and a Bachelor Degree in ECEE, Melissa has always loved to learn. Being part of the educational system for nearly 20 years, she was looking for a means to better prepare her students for the world on a more personal level.
