What others say...

“I took Melissa's pregnancy yoga classes for most of my second and third trimester. As well as feeling amazing, with lots of pregnancy kinks worked out at the end of each class, I also picked up lots of great tips and advice for all stages of labour, which I can hand on heart say I used during the birth. My husband and I also did a one to one active birth workshop as we prepared for our second baby's arrival and we both found it a valuable resource. To top it off Melissa is knowledgeable and generous with her advice and time. I couldn't recommend her enough xx.”
