“Melissa is an amazing instructor + mentor - extremely knowledgeable + passionate about the body (anatomy, alignment + movement). She is funny, honest, kind + caring - she calls things as they are - and shows you what you are capable of (often more than you realize). Melissa is punctual, trustworthy, respectful and professional. She embodies what she believes and follows through on her agreements + commitments. Having studied alongside her as both a student + instructor I cannot say enough to capture the impact + knowledge she's imparted in me AND made in my instruction with my clients.”

"I was introduced to Melissa about 10 years ago and continue to learn from her. I love the concept of taking what we experience in class into our everyday lives to build strength and ease. Melissa explains everything concisely to ensure her students get the most out of each session. Her upbeat approach makes it both fun and meaningful. I would encourage anyone who is thinking of making a positive change in their activity regime to get Melissa on your team."

“I always wished that I had started Pilates sooner in my life. Practising with Melissa over the past couple of years I have noticed improvement in core strength and awareness of movement. Melissa instructs with such a depth of knowledge. I’m impressed. Melissa is ‘The Best’! “
