WHO AM I

*Melanie Auffray*

Melanie Yoga Instructor

My name is Melanie, I am from the beautiful island of Mauritius and I am a Vinyasa, Prenatal, Postnatal and Kids yoga instructor. 

Being a cabin crew for the past 10 years, gave me the chance to travel the world. In 2014, I moved to Dubai and with this change of environment came new friends, new habits and a whole new lifestyle. I knew from the start that something was missing. Deep down I felt this urge to go back to the basics, be closer to nature, free my mind from the stress of everyday, live a healthier life. This is when Yoga found me.

At first, I indulged into Yoga for my own benefit. As a cabin crew, I had the exceptional opportunity to practice yoga in different countries and learn various styles and approaches. I learned a lot from the different cultures around the world and I will always be grateful for that.

In 2018, I was very blessed to fall pregnant and I knew from the beginning that I wanted the best possible introduction to life for my son. For my baby I had to be healthy and strong; physically, mentally and emotionally. This is when I started looking for prenatal yoga classes. Unfortunately, at that time in I could not find any. I was desperate to join a prenatal Yoga class and ended up doing none. After a massive fall (the biggest fear of my life) and with all the preconceptions of our society I completely stop all physical activities and obviously ended up with 32kg. It struck me like an evidence; at this very moment I knew that I had to make a difference. I had to learn the principles of Yoga so that I could help others, the way that I wanted to be helped. I knew that if life allows me to make my passion, my everyday job, sharing with others the benefits of practicing yoga, I would have to seize the chance.

Shortly after giving birth to my beautiful baby boy, I signed up for a 250 hours of online Vinyasa yoga teacher training. Coming back to the country after the COVID-19 Pandemic, I completed a 85 hours prenatal, postnatal and kids yoga online teacher training. I am now happy and proud to be a Certified Vinyasa Yoga Teacher from Aura Wellness Centre, Massachusetts USA and Prenatal, Postnatal and Kids Yoga Teacher form Island Prenatal Yoga
