Meet Melanie

Melanie loves talking all things pelvic health so much it’s infectious – or really annoying, it all depends on where you’re sitting. Literally. It’s like she can’t stop reading about it, learning about it, writing about it and teaching it. She’s studied many different styles of yoga, but really she just teaches awareness of sensation, intuitive movement and finding what feels good in every body. Melanie has been teaching yoga for a long time, but she still mixes up her left and right at least once in every class she teaches. She may refer to the wall as the floor, your foot as a flipper and call your fingers your toes. She tries to keep it lighthearted, laughs at herself and may have you doing something silly in class like neighing while in rocking horse.  She loves working with pregnant and new mamas helping them to find more balance in their life through yoga, mindfulness and self-care. She’s a really cool teacher, who cares a lot about her students. When she asks at the start of class how you are doing today – she really wants to know, how are you really feeling right now.

As a Registered Holistic Nutritionist Melanie empowers her clients to enjoy life and find ways to incorporate healthy eating habits, without overcomplicating things. She provides you with clear, simple and actionable items so you can start living and feeling great today. Instead of being told what to do, she encourages you to connect with your own innate wisdom. She’s not perfect, she likes pizza, chips and wine. She’s a little fluffier than she remembers being a few years ago. She believes in balance, listening to your body, loving the body you are in today and indulging in a treat every once in a while.
