MY JOURNEY
this is ME
I’m Melissa, a passionate wellness enthusiast and adventurer with over seven years of experience in hospitality, fitness, and yoga. My journey began in Canada, where I spent 13 years playing hockey before discovering my love for hot yoga. That newfound passion led me to Maui, Hawaii, where I became a certified yoga instructor and a passion for exploring the world. Following that I'd embarked on a journey of working and living in 3 different continents.With a diploma in business and certifications in personal training, yoga, and paddle-boarding, I’ve had the chance to blend my love for fitness with my entrepreneurial spirit. I even opened my own fitness and yoga studio in Canada, Fountain of Youth Fitness & Yoga, where I taught everything from yoga to fitness classes. From there, my adventure continued to Nicaragua and the Bahamas, where I led retreats, taught at boutique hotels, and embraced life as a traveling fitness instructor.Driven by a desire to create memorable experiences, connect with people, and stay active, I’m always eager for new challenges and opportunities. Whether it’s teaching SUP fitness or running yoga retreats, I love spreading positive energy and helping others feel their best.Recently, I realized that all the skills I’ve gained—from guest services to leadership—would make me a great stewardess. That realization led me to earn my STCW certification, and I’m now excited to embark on my next adventure in the yachting world.
