Jennifer Mellon is the owner, teacher and artist at Beyond Chaos Yoga & Art in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. Jennifer attended her first yoga class in 2014 and was hit or miss with her practice for a few years, but in 2019 that all changed. She enrolled in a six week class called 40 Days to a Personal Revolution and it was truly life changing. Three weeks into this program, Jennifer signed up for yoga teacher training and hasn’t looked back since. She trained under Powered by Heart Yoga School, with Crystal Beshears and Terri Hargrove as her main teachers.
After completing her 200 hour training in 2019, she opened her own studio in Charleston called Ecliptic 14 Yoga. It was only open a few months due to the pandemic, but was a wonderful learning experience and a great start to her yoga teacher career.
In 2021, she completed her 300 hour yoga teacher training and she is now an RYT500. Besides owning her own studio for a period of time, Jennifer has taught a local library, pop-up classes, retreats and festivals. Her most current teaching position before moving to Eureka Springs was at Balance Yoga & Lifestyle in Panama City, Florida. Jennifer is currently focusing on her artwork, private yoga lessons and retreats.
Jennifer’s greatest passion with yoga is sharing how it has personally helped her. She strives to show people that yoga has something to offer everyone. She wants to empower people to be their authentic selves. “Yoga was instrumental in starting to figure out who I am….and I’m still working on that daily”. If you come to any of her classes, you know that one of the recurring themes will be dropping the mask, digging deep to figure out what makes you tick, and learning acceptance. She believes strongly in the power of “I Am” and encourages others to believe in who they really are.
