Melissa Martinez

Mel is the heart and soul behind Temple Yoga Reno. Since 2016, she's cultivated Temple Yoga Reno into a healing space for yoga practice.

With 18 years of teaching in the Reno/Tahoe area, Mel has built lasting relationships with her students, infusing every class with the heart of Bhakti. Beyond the joy she finds in motherhood and teaching, Mel deepened her community impact by founding We Are One Yoga Teacher Trainings in 2013. These in-depth modules explore the many facets of embodying yoga's teachings.

Witnessing the profound ripple effect of these teachings, Mel feels immensely grateful. She cherishes being an integral part of a community that gives back in countless ways.

 
Mel's personal Yoga journey began in her early twenties in 1999. Her practice has changed since then and now she finds depth through experience in the application of the teachings to be her most valued practice. Her training is diverse and began with Bikram Yoga 500 Hour YTT in 2007. She taught Bikram Yoga for 3 years. Since, she followed Janet Stone and completed the 500 hour Janet Stone Yoga Elements Teacher Training. She traveled to India with Janet Stone Yoga in 2012. After her experience, she realized there is only one Yoga. Mel is deeply and equally grateful for her root teachers including Rusty Wells whose inspiration is in every single class she offers. She completed 240 hours of Bhakti Flow Yoga Teacher Training in 2012 and continues to pass on the lineage.
