Melanie Palmer

Proprietor & Iyengar Yoga teacher

Melanie is the current proprietor of Just Yoga and has been involved since it opened in 1993. "I started practising Iyengar® yoga in 1990, originally to help with a problematic back. My back grew stronger and my interest turned to the educational process of yoga. I was inspired to start teacher training in 1998. Yoga has enriched all aspects of my life."

Melanie has studied with the Iyengar family in the UK and in Pune India.
