Meet Michelle Font, Lead Trainer

Hello, I’m Michelle—also warmly known as Meeshie, Meesh, or Mich. My spiritual journey is encapsulated in the name given to me during my Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training; Dhyan Tejdeep Kaur, symbolizing a radiant, divine light shared through meditation. Dedicated to the collective highest good, I believe in serving others through the transformative power of yoga.

My journey deepened in 2020 with an unforgettable 200-hour YTT in Hawaii, igniting a purposeful path in yoga amidst a global shift. With over 20 years of teaching experience across various subjects, I’ve found my calling in the dual roles of teacher and learner. Now an E-RYT 500 and YACEP, I’ve taught over 2,200 hours, spreading the wisdom of yoga through studio classes, outdoor sessions, chair yoga, private lessons, and as a beloved facilitator for Yoga Teacher Training programs.

Each course and workshop I’ve led or attended has been a step in my healing journey, helping me connect more deeply with myself and others. As we embark on this journey together, I look forward to guiding, teaching, and learning from you in a space filled with love and understanding.

Testimonial

Lola

Emoni helped me through my 200 hour YTT in a gentle and significant way. I can truly say she has made me into the teacher I am today with all of her knowledge, tips, and advice she has given me the last few months. Emoni was so open to helping all of us and setting us up for being a better teacher each day. The love she has for her practice and students show’s constantly which is why I have no doubt she’d be a great leader in teacher training.

Jessica

Michelle Font is an absolute gem. Her inner beauty and gentle temperament transcend through her yoga teachings; she is graceful, thoughtful, and always prepared for class. As a student, I felt immediately comfortable and at ease in her presence, and safe under her guidance. Michelle's optional hands-on assistance during class and frequent posture and alignment reminders are especially appreciated, even for tenured yogis. What I appreciate most is her unique teaching style; she offers students daily essential oils, shares her crystal, mala meditation & sound bowl knowledge, and even provides affirmation cards for us to reflect on and journal. She frequently stays after class to answer questions or lend a compassionate ear.

Kelsey

Though I certainly expected to make some lifelong friends during my first ever 200-hour YTT, I was not expecting one of those lifelong friends to be my teacher necessarily! Michelle holds space in a non-judgmental way, opening her heart to each and every unique individual. Her ability to intuit the energy of the room is truly magical, and she was always able to sense what the class may need. Not only does she have a deep knowledge of yogic philosophy and practice, but she is also an adept teacher. Michelle makes learning interactive and engaging, leaving students with the skills and knowledge they need to become safe and professional yoga teachers. Michelle facilitated life-changing ceremonies and came to the mat each day with joy, laughter, and love. She is my mentor, and also my friend and I'm so grateful her teaching guided me on my own path to yoga teaching.

I can attest to the multifaceted benefits of Thai Yoga Massage and Christie Ann Rochette expertly and compassionately caters to your body’s specific needs. I just had mine today (11/16/2022) and it was amazing. How amazing? I drove through our first snowstorm from Berlin, NH! Yeah, Christie’s that good!

Rebecca Hall

Ellen’s teaching style is eclectic, authentic, open, inviting, and responsive to the needs of her students.  Her Friday noon classes have been my favorite for years because they are the most playful and intuitive, holding space for students to experiment with poses that could otherwise intimidate newcomers.  Ellen’s recent introduction of intuitive meditation techniques have made my practice more intentional and joyful, on and off the mat.

Meg

I've been taking Molly's classes since 2017 and I still remember the first time. When I say life-changing, I mean it. She is a whole vibe; she is a one of a kind human. It's kind of hard to explain, but once you meet her you will understand! I have been thinking about doing teacher training for years now and the few times I considered it, it just didn't feel right or didn't work out for some reason. Now, this YTT with Molly, I will NOT pass up and the timing is just perfect. I feel like it's just meant to be. That's kind of how you feel in Molly's classes - like you're meant to be; like you're on the right path. She is an amazing teacher and friend and I can't wait to learn even more from her.

Andie shows up in her authentic truth as a mentor. She makes herself available as a resource. She holds a beautiful balance as an educator, lifelong learner, and space holder. Although she provided much needed guidance and insight into the material, I was never afraid that I was “wrong” but felt I was just ‘here’ on my journey, and she did a great job of holding space for everyone’s ‘here’ without judgment. Prior to the training, I would describe myself as spiritually uncertain. I had remaining confusion from the spirituality of my upbringing, and I was seeking somewhat of a cleanse and a new beginning. The training equipped me with a spiritual toolbox with which to proceed. I can still use the tools that I learned during the training to assess and reset no matter what the circumstance. The relationship to the content is much more fluid than I had imagined it would be.

McKenna

This teacher training guided me to refine my identity. I had grown content inside my self-defined comfort zone and never thought to push the boundaries. I was hesitant to give myself credit for those qualities that I had to offer and through the training I found my confidence to appreciate my gifts not only as a wife and mother, but as an individual. I was a huge control freak and held the reins so tight it limited me. I have given myself permission to let go and know that while I may always be a recovering perfectionist, bumps in the road are a part of the learning process. The tools I learned have become a lifestyle instead of just a weekly practice. My favorite part of the training was when the Instructors pushed me past any boundaries I had set for myself. Having to be vulnerable and show parts of myself that I kept hidden was a huge breakthrough in this process. I was able to enjoy the success of others and see them blossom.
