Melissa Carroll

Melissa found her way to yoga after a spinal injury. Though she began yoga for the physical practice, she kept coming back for the spiritual and mental transformation that followed.

She completed her 200-hour training at kRtajJata yoga school in Raleigh, NC. She also specialized in yoga nidra, children’s yoga, energy healing, and Reiki. She completed training to lead Y12-SR classes and got her prenatal yoga certification in 2021.

She has taken workshops from yoga leaders such as Seane Corne, Jonah Kest, and Jesamyn Stanley and has led various modules in yoga teacher training in the Raleigh/Durham area. Melissa is currently studying with Bessel Van Kolk, author of The Body Keeps the Score, to complete the Trauma Research Foundation’s certificate program in Trauma stress studies.

Melissa leads classes to foster community and welcomes all bodies and practices to show up, the rest will follow.
