Accessibility Commitment
This statement was last updated on June 1, 2024.
At Yoga by Melissa, we strive to ensure our website (yogabymelissa.com) is accessible to all users, regardless of their abilities or assistive technologies.
Understanding Web Accessibility
Web accessibility means that people with disabilities can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with the website effectively. We aim to provide an experience similar to that of users without disabilities through thoughtful design and technology.
Accessibility Features on Our Site
Our website has been designed and developed following WCAG 2.1 guidelines at the AA level. Key accessibility features include:
Optimized content structure with clear headings
Alternative text for all images
Keyboard navigability throughout the site
Sufficient color contrast for readability
Reduced motion animations to accommodate sensitive users
Accessible video and audio content with captions and transcripts
Partial compliance disclosure due to embedded third-party content
Certain yoga tutorial videos hosted on third-party platforms may not fully comply with our accessibility standards. Affected pages include our "Online Classes" section. We are actively working with these providers to improve accessibility and therefore declare partial compliance for these areas.
Physical Accessibility at Yoga by Melissa Studio
Our physical studio is designed with accessibility in mind, featuring reserved parking for disabled visitors, step-free entry, accessible restrooms, and quiet spaces. We provide assistive devices such as yoga blocks and straps, and our instructors are trained to accommodate various mobility needs.
