"Restorative Yoga with Melissa is an essential weekly practice for me! The simple poses, guided breath practices, and overall relaxation of the class make this a must have practice for me. Thank you, Melissa!"
"I had never done restorative yoga until I tried Melissa’s class. It is now my favorite kind of yoga. It leaves your mind and body refreshed and ready to start anew. "
"Melissa's privates are the bomb! She creates a unique class for me each time, finding a balance between deep physical movement, complete relaxation, and inner work contemplation, with breath work that ties it all nicely together."
“Melissa’s restorative class is 75 minutes of the best self care, in the moment, time spent. No worries of yesterday or tomorrow, just now.”
"Melissa! I am so thankful for your yoga library! I love it! Being able to chose my time is really encouraging me to practice regularly! Thank you!"
"I never practiced yoga or meditation until I found out I had cancer. Melissa was recommended to me by a friend, and her sessions have helped my mental and physical well being. I also like the occasional dance parties in her classes"
“I’m just about a week in with doing restorative and gentle yoga and I’m absolutely loving it. Melissa Rusk is a great teacher! If you have physical limitations or disabilities this then is a great class. As someone who is not physically fit and with minor limitations I cannot recommend this class enough. Its all on line. There are live and recorded classes for everyone. My neurologist recommended yoga to help with my muscle spasms and movement and already I’m sleeping better and have more energy during the day."
