Melissa Tung Yoga Movement and Wellness

Melissa is an amazing teacher. Her classes always leave me feeling great and is always so helpful in breaking down each position. She helped me build up to doing inversions after struggling for ages, I couldn't have done it without her.

Melissa Tung is a truly gifted movement teacher. Her classes are thoughtful, fun and she always balances the perfect mix of effort and release.Melissa’s knowledge of anatomy has helped me grow as a student and I’m so grateful for our practices together. Whether you’re a seasoned practitioner or brand new to yoga, I highly recommend checking out Melissa’s classes, she is an absolute gem.

Melissa does a great job explaining each of the yoga poses and provides many adjustments / suggestions for different levels (in person pre-covid and verbally during covid online classes). Great teacher!

I first started going to Melissa's yoga classes about 7 years ago. She has that great mix of fantastic teaching skills and being a teacher that makes you want to go to class even when you're not feeling it. Her warm demeanor brightens your day and makes each class a great experience.

As one of Melissa's student, she has given me excellent tips, encouragement, and guided detailed instructions overcoming my personal asana challenge. Always learnt something new in her class.Solid practice each class, especially for beginners, or someone that wants a challenge. With variation offered. Her knowledge stays with me in every practice. W/O those tools, I may of given up, and think I can't do this, that. .One of a kind yoga instructor.

Melissa is awesome! I am a beginner and I found her teaching style so easy to follow (in person and especially virtually!!). She describes how your body should be feeling in each position and its so helpful for someone starting out! I look forward to each class and always feel great after each class!

I have been taking Melissa's yoga and movement classes for a few years now and there so many reasons I keep coming back! Melisa crafts challenging, interesting and dynamic sequences and has a very clear way of calling them out. She is energetic, encouraging, clear and thoughtful. Melissa has excellent insights and teachings, and through her adjustments my practice has really elevated. Even in pandemic, with class on Zoom, Melissa is still able to pay each student attention, and provide valuable adjustments and feedback. If you're looking for a great teacher and a great class, Melissa is your girl!

A decade ago I had the privilege of selecting Melissa to lead yoga at our office twice a week for years. It was one of the best decisions our office made -- even my collegues who had never tried yoga before, looked forward to the mental and physical release her classes brought. Melissa brought her sunny disposition and vast expertise to cater each session to our mood that day and also offered variations for every level, which made everyone feel comfortable. Not only did my body feel great but my flexibility increased and my became toned, so I have also attended many yoga classes like aerial, stand up paddle board etc. with Melissa outside of the office and cannot recommend her enough!

Melissa is so good at her work. How easy and effortless she makes it look and feel is truly a mark of her skill level, humility and talent. I particularly appreciate how streamlined her spoken cues are while remaining precise, thoughtful and encouraging. Her movement sequences feel good in the body, even when more challenging, allowing students to have a safe yet satisfying practice. Her mindfulness teachings avoid moral platitudes and feel genuine. Her classes along with Diane Bruni’s - rest her soul - as well as Kathryn Bruni-Young’s, were among my favourite during the time I lived in toronto. They still are. I’m very happy that I can attend Melissa’s classes again, even if virtually.

Love her virtual yoga classes, Mel is super knowledgable and always engaging. Her practice is unpretentious, approachable, great for all fitness levels and she's really patient with her students after class, often taking time to answer questions. Highly recommend!
