Jenn Melton “My yoga journey began 10 years ago, but I didn’t become really dedicated until I began having terrible panic attacks in 2009.  Of course my doctor’s wanted to prescribe medication, but I knew there was a better way.  I found that by keeping a regular yoga practice I was slowly able to get my panic attacks under control, until eventually they became almost non-existent.  That’s when I realized my real passion in life, using yoga to help others who may be dealing with the same issues.  I became certified through Asheville Yoga Center in 2015, training with Stephanie Keach, Kimberley Puryear, Michael Johnson, Joe Taft, Sierra Hollister, and Ryan Conrad.  I have been an instructor at Uptown Yoga in Morehead City, NC since I received my certification.  I enjoy teaching various styles of yoga, keeping a balanced blend of yin and yang.  Yoga is an ever evolving learning experience for me and  I continue to educate myself and work towards my 500 hour certification. In October of 2016 I became a certified Reflexologist, training with Amanda Todd in eastern North Carolina, and on November 1, 2016 I became a Licensed  Broga® Yoga instructor, the first in my area. I enjoy seeing the effect that Yoga has on other’s and knowing that I am able to help them on their journey.”
