“During a major transition in my life, I crossed paths with Amber while camping. I was immediately drawn to her bright light and calming aura. While getting to know her she shared her wisdom about the Human Design and Gene Key, which immediately intrigued me. My higher self communicated that she was a gift to help me better understand my true self. During the consultation of my HD chart and Gene Key she had a beautiful, positive flow of energy and words. She opened a safe space to discuss any questions and I left the conversation with a newfound understanding of myself and energized for life. Since our first discussion she has respectfully kept in touch, checking in to ensure my practice was going well and to answer questions. Amber is a blessing and I will be forever grateful that the Universe provided a path to her wisdom, love, and soul.”

“I have son who is almost 3yrs old. Amber offered loving, respectful and natural approaches to help me handle specific situations where I had been struggling with parenting. Amber was quick to point out how my own levels of stress and anxiety were potentially playing a key role in my son’s behavior, and she reminded me of how I could incorporate meditation and calming moments into my day with my son which would also teach him how to handle his own stress and anxieties. I love Amber’s holistic approach and value her guidance and knowledge about healing our own ancestral lineage, incorporating and reinforcing ‘family values’ into regular redirection with my son, and specific phrases she offered me to start using for his age and understanding level. Amber also suggested specific music/tones that would aid an inspiring calming atmosphere, and different traditions I can start with my son. I highly recommend Amber to anyone looking for a holistic approach to parenting and a wise mentor!”

"Through this art of self knowing, Amber guides you through a reality previously unknown. With moments of clarity and wisdom, we can tap into a new perception of who we truly are and how to navigate our lives in our bodies in this world. With discoveries previously unknown, we can access a new level of awareness and activate keys to our lives. It is a unique gift to be guided by Amber in this Human Design system created for awareness. I invite you to embark on this journey with Amber as your guide and open to a greater understanding within yourself. You will be delighted, as am I!"

"Over the three weeks, I watched my almost 8 year old daughter rapidly change in her body awareness, body attunement and sense of self. Being awakened with reverence of a changing body at such a young age is indeed a gift. Not only has she begun to understand her body, self-nurturing and her environment differently, but she has matured in her ability to self express through her art work in a way that I did not expect. Furthermore, with the amount of journaling, craft work, etc. Her hand writing has massively improved over a matter of weeks. It is interesting to see how much art and writing can be absorbed in such a natural and beautiful space such as The Rose Tent. Both myself and my daughter, ZZ, thank you!"

“My name is Dehuel Juarbe, I've been a Yogi for about ten years. I started doing Yoga in 2010, yet I must say that when I first started doing Yoga, it was more out of a physical necessity. So I was stretching, doing asanas every day, and I started noticing amazing changes occurring within my entire life experience. From these stretches that I was doing, I started feeling a sense of Union from within myself that was becoming addicting. After a year and half or so, I wanted to take my practice to the next level, as I felt that I had reached a bit of a plateau and now I was longing for a more profound experience. I had been given a taste and now I wanted more. So in 2011 I decided to look for a teacher. Within my first few set of searches on the internet, I came across Amber's teacher training program and I became intrigued by the sensation I was feeling as looked over her website. When I contacted her, she informed me that before we move along any further, she needed to meet me in person, which at this point after she said that, I was 100% sure that she was who I wanted as my teacher. Days later I went and met with Amber, which I must say, I was in total bliss being in her presence. I felt her to be one the most sensible people I had ever met. Her full attention was locked in towards our shared space and time. So with no hesitation, I chose her as my teacher and with much love, she accepted me as her student. The entire course was a beautiful journey and has been one the most profound experiences in my entire life. She encompasses the full spectrum of Yoga. The mental, physical and spiritual are all equal dimensions within her practice. She embedded within me an understanding of Yoga that was guaranteed to make me a more sensible/prudent person everyday for the rest of my life. Through my experience and reality, Amber is a true western Yogi. A rare Gem in this chaotic and hectic society. Not many teachers like her in our western culture. I consider her to be one of my Gurus for serving as a roadmap and for dispelling much of my darkness. Through her wisdom and guidance, I was able to integrate a deeper dimension of Yoga. Oh and one more thing...a very unique quality of great teacher is being an amazing student, which on that front, it is safe to say Amber is a student of All.”

Namaste,

“The yoga teacher training with Amber Melendy was such an amazing, life enhancing experience for me. It was so much more than just practicing yoga poses or breathing techniques. I learned how to truly connect with all of the layers of myself. Never before have I gone this deep or connected with others so deeply. Amber taught us how to process emotions, how to release, and how to forgive. She taught us how to strengthen our energies, believe in ourselves, and open our hearts to both giving and receiving love and abundance. I learned so much about myself from this experience and have become a much happier, stronger, more peaceful, more aware version of myself. My life has been forever changed and I will forever be connected to the wonderful people I met here.”

-Melissa

”Amber Melendy has been absolutely instrumental in my personal growth and interior expansion. I've been shown the true expression of Yoga, a Union. I've begun to blossom in understanding the intrinsic unity that can be found within this body and it's loving relationship with this mind, and through this, the extensionality of the Self to include all beings in this Ocean of We. In facing all my of ignorance and pain, not alone but with a community and family that supports its self on this mutual intention, I am and we are re~discovering the rest of our selves. Reflecting on this leaves nothing but gratitude and projecting into where it will lead leaves nothing but joy.”

"I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Amber. It has been such a treat. I am DEEPLY grateful that Amber has introduced me to Human Design more deeply. It is such a unique, comprehensive system & Amber is well-qualified to support you as a Guide.  I enjoyed Amber’s teaching style, her empowering & strengths-based approach, & I felt cared for & seen. I felt like Amber was in my corner, & rooting for me, which I really appreciated.  Our work together so far has helped me better understand myself, be more accepting of my limitations, & given me fuel to live my life more purposefully.   It has been tremendous. I have much to reflect on & integrate. And, Amber provides abundant interesting resources to further learning.   For anyone seeking to get to the next level in their life with a grounded spiritual framework, I would suggest Human Design & reaching out to Amber. Also, I feel excited & inspired by the potential this modality offers to humanity."

"I have received so much more than I could ever have anticipated in taking Shine On Yoga's Teacher Training with Amber Melendy-and I'm not speaking merely of the superb anusara-influenced asana training; or the deep physiological understanding of the possibilities of healing inherent in the practice; or the philosophical synthesis of Traditional Yogic, Tantric, and Shamanic philosophies; or the emotional growth that has (inevitably) accompanied these experiential teachings. This barely scratches the surface! Amber has the genius to integrate guest instructors who have assisted her in presenting a comprehensive array of approaches to understanding, and working with, the body and energy system as practice becomes self-healing, heart-opening becomes trauma release and recovery, and internal realization becomes volitional self-evolution. In this training we have expanded our minds and deepened our understandings with presentations on Nutrition; Alexander Technique and Body Dialogues; Somato-Respiratory Integration; NLP-based positive Communication Techniques; Health Rhythms Group Empowerment Drumming, and more and more. And finally, Amber has drawn together a diverse, talented and truly heartful medley of trainees who each have so much to offer that this experience has been honestly life-changing in myriad ways. I walk in gratitude at inclusion in this transformation!"

“Amber's yoga teacher training program is the most influential and life-changing program I've ever experienced. Her dedication to connect with each person ensures they will receive the most fulfilling, and well-rounded yoga training possible. Going beyond the typical yoga teacher training programs available in the U.S., Amber's program focuses on asana anatomy, yoga philosophy and personal awakening. Each student walks away feeling empowered to teach from an authentic place. I learned more about myself, grew as a person, became more accepting of myself and others, and have become more self-actualized as a result of her teachings. I highly recommend the program to anyone looking to understand yoga and their self on a deeper level.”

"My human design reading with Amber was so enlightening! But, also, it felt so correct and in-line with my view of myself and my life events. I found myself smiling and nodding while listening - like, "yep, now I understand!" She took so much care putting everything together. I was very happy that I followed my intuition and booked a reading."

"I love your work so much. The Rose Tent Yoga & Mindfulness Summer Camp really affected Ysha and allowed her to come deeper into herself and her divine feminine."

The camp was very fun and calming. I met lots of new people even though I went with a friend. Roes Tent is a calming summer camp that allows you to connect with girls your age and to bond and form a sisterhood. I enjoyed the Rose Tent because it allowed me to just relax. I could be open and worry free. The director, Amber, does a great job at including everyone and makes the space so welcoming. She plans lots of fun activities, both calm and interactive ones. Overall I loved this camp and would gladly do it again. - Ella, 12 years old camper

I had the pleasure of assisting Amber in her amazing Rose Tent summer camp.  This is an engaging and empowering program designed to equip girls with the tools they need to successfully navigate the transition to womanhood.  Amber is an amazing teacher.  She kept the girls interest and enthusiasm with crafts that taught them about emotions, health, and compassion.  It was an honor to be a part of a gathering of wonderful girls who came together to share their love for each other and the universe.

Amber was wonderful. I loved her energy. Pressure was great. Communication was clear.I feel more open, free, clear and loved by such a sweet /kind caring soul. Amber’s intention is pure, her quality of touch healing and her awareness is on point. Grateful for our healing hour. Amber is a gifted healer. Lisa

Amber was attentive, conscious and connected to me and my muscles (tissue). I felt safe and receptive to her healing hands. Some of the initial shoulder work released some trapped emotion through tears. Alisha

Amber listened well to my body issues, was attentive, skilled and informative. I look forward to more work by her in the future. Nicole

I had the absolute blessing of having a massage by two wonderful massage therapists at the same time as a birthday gift . I’ve only had 4 hand massage a handful of times in my life and it’s been a very interesting and enjoyable sensory experience. It had been far too long since I’d had a massage and I basically got two in one. They both did very different things but they worked well together. I’d never had such profound abdominal massage as I had from Amber Melendy I hold so much tension in my belly and she was able to move a lot of it through. She also shared her knowledge of Human Design. Joseph Exelbirt was also great at what he does. If you have never had a two person or 4 handed massage, I highly recommend Amber and Joseph. Thank you both for a very healing and much needed massage experience. 

Excellent communication of the plan for the session and explanation of the muscles involved. I learned something new (many things!!) and feel relief in my stubborn leg! Katie

Liked how she was able to work deep without pain (inflicted). Worked on the edge of ‘pain’ well. Good communication and energy. Thank you, I was able to relax. Karin

Wonderful massage. Amber is kind and attentive. Debbie

I had a human design reading yesterday with Amber. It was so good. It really helped me understand myself better, and gave me tangible tools for moving through the world in a more effective way and it gave me so much understanding of why I am the way I am, and who I am, and how best to share my gifts with the world. I've known Amber for nearly 2 decades, and I can say she’s one of the most amazing people I know. I highly recommend a human design session with her if you want to understand yourself better and grow and navigate the world a little easier.
