Melani began her yoga journey at a major fitness club in Dubai. What started as a focus on physical fitness and relaxation soon evolved into a deeply restorative path of peace, self-discovery, and renewal. In 2015, inspired by yoga’s powerful impact on her life, she completed a 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training Course and began exploring self-awareness and personal transformation in greater depth. Her studies continued with an RYT 500 certification from USA Yoga Alliance, followed by an intensive 200-hour Himalayan Kriya Yoga Teacher Training in India under the guidance of a Maha Shiva Yogi. She is also a certified sound healer.
Since 2019, Melani has worked as a Lead Yoga Teacher Trainer, mentoring and guiding more than 600 yoga students on their path to becoming yoga teachers. Today, she teaches yoga and sound healing classes at some of Dubai’s leading and largest fitness clubs: Fitness First, Gymnation, and VEO.
She enjoys sharing a wide range of yoga styles, including Gentle, Hatha, Flow, Dynamic Flow, Restorative, and Himalayan Kriya Yoga, often weaving in sound healing to enrich the experience. For Melani, yoga is far more than movement; it is a practice of self-care, connection, and inner growth. She is committed to offering a safe, supportive, and inclusive space for every student.
"Yoga has brought immense joy, deep growth, transformation and healing into my life, and it is a blessing to share this practice with others. Every class I teach is infused with love, intention, and deep respect for each student's unique path. Together, let's explore the transformative power of yoga and create a life filled with balance, strength, and happiness."
"I am excited and looking forward to connecting with you. As a mentor and guide, I aim to share my yoga journey and create a space where you can explore the depths of learning and growth in all aspects of you, as you discover and unwrap your full potential"
