Hidden Gems: Meet Melissa Henley of MoveFromWithin

Today we’d like to introduce you to Melissa Henley.

Hi Melissa, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
With a lifetime of dancing, 15 years of practicing yoga, over 10 years of personal training, and 5+ years of owning my own business, movement and wellness have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember.

I started Move From Within because I felt there was a gap in the fitness industry. There were plenty of “quick fixes” and plenty of companies and trainers focused on outward appearance. But what about quality of life?

I wanted to create something different.

My passion is helping clients discover their own intrinsic motivation for living a healthy lifestyle. One that isn’t driven by a number on the scale or how they look in the mirror, but by how movement makes them FEEL.

Because when the motivation comes from within, healthy habits become something you want to do, not something you have to do.

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
Overall very smooth for me because I’ve grown it very gradually over time. Of course there have been natural ups and downs throughout

Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
We offer Personal Training, Pre/Post-Partum Personal Training, Individual Yoga, and Health Coaching.

I’m most proud of brand-wise, the focus on intrinsic motivations and helping clients feel empowered in their journeys by focusing on how they feel.

I want readers/ potential clients to feel welcome here, not intimidated.

Where do you see things going in the next 5-10 years?
I’m working on an app so that I can have a bigger reach to more people!
