Soul sessions - creative therapy and personal development for every BODY and BEING

Melissa is a fantastic dance teacher. And a lovely person to go with it. Melissa choreographed and taught 14 over 40s for a surprise flash mob for a wedding. Over our weekly practices Melissa turned us from the a version of the muppets into a tight flash mob of street dancers. The we’d g party were blown away by our dance skills.

Melissa choreographed and taught me and my wife’s first dance for our wedding. Honestly, look no further. Melissa created the perfect dance for us and she made the lesson comfortable and fun. My wife was apprehensive about doing a first dance to begin with but we both ended up having the best time and it was one of our favourite parts of our wedding. We both have two left feet but somehow Melissa made it work and adapted to the style that we wanted. 100% recommend. Thank you Melissa!

Punctual, efficient, attentive and motivating

Melissa has been teaching our 7 year old daughter to dance, mainly online but in person too for nearly two years now.
Our little girl has gone from no rhythm to rhythm! Melissa is teaching her routines to increase her repertoire of dance steps and then goes through them and sharpens up those steps!
Melissa is an excellent dancer, she is also very knowledgeable and is: patient, communicates great with children and encourages our daughter to continue learning new techniques yet still always gives my daughter the time to listen to her ideas too. My little girl loves working with Melissa!
I would highly recommend Melissa as a Dance teacher for any age!

I cannot thank Melissa enough for the incredible support and guidance she provided my son during his successful auditions for Sylvia Young Theatre School. From the very first lesson, her passion for dance and enthusiasm was evident.

Melissa not only helped my son set up his routine from but also gave him the confidence to perform at his best. He felt fully prepared for his audition and walked in with a sense of confidence and excitement. If you are looking for a dance teacher who is not only talented but also deeply invested in her students’ success, I wholeheartedly recommend Melissa!

Melissa has been such a wonderful dance teacher for my daughter and her friends! She has incredible knowledge of a huge range of dance styles and is able to explain so patiently and so clearly. The girls LOVE their classes and have progressed massively under her teaching.

Melissa is a very warm hearted, genuine and high spirited individual. She knows how to bring the most out of each of her students by encouraging them to work at the their own pace, whilst also motivating them to work outside of their own comfort zone. She is able to suit all styles and arrange you lesson to the style and method that each of her students prefer. I would definitely recommend her as a teacher, she puts a lot of effect into making sure her students understand and are moving at a pace that suits them. Whether you are a child or adult students, Melissa is the teacher for you. She will make you come out of the lesson not only happy but fulfilled with what you have learnt in each of your lessons!!

Not only is Melissa an incredible dancer but also a great teacher, the combination of which is rather hard to come across.

Melissa is a lovely dance teacher and inspiration. She makes sure that everyone’s questions are answered, goes through routines at a comfortable pace, by breaking down steps and is extremely encouraging. This allowed many people to discover their own creative style as dancers as they were in a comfortable environment to develop confidence in order to improve. The most inspiring part about Melissa as a tutor is her passion and drive in dance, and helping people to fall in love with dance the same way she has.

Because she is kind hearted and very generous, whenever I've been stuck on a dance move she takes the time to go through it properly so I understand whay to do, she hasn't got one bad bone in her body she's a breath of fresh air to be around with

Melissa is all rounded dancer whose passion and love for sharing with others creates such a beautiful energy. She is great teacher who has years of knowledge and experience. She is fun full of energy and such an inspiring, positive and uplifting person. Melissa classes will take you through a fun upbeat warm up with fitness, stretch and conditioning, led by hip hop/street dance/contemporary infused choreography to a selected song within her huge range of music selection, and sometimes she plays with dance/movement creative exercises to get our creative juices flowing.
