 What People Say

Aleksandra

Mel's student since 2020

“Melanie has a very strong and calm presence. Breathing practices are at the heart of her teaching. She guides each session with great care, always paying close attention to how the body and energy respond. She naturally adapts the practice to the person in front of her. Her way of working feels intuitive and respectful.  She is always deepening her understanding of what she loves.  For me, she is an inspiring woman whose work truly supports well-being and inner balance."​

Gerald Harrison

Channel Swimmer

“As a future channel soloist, I find Mel’s influence has an immensely positive effect on me and my training. Last week I tackled an adventurous open water swim; having just finished a breathing session with Mel, I felt calmer and more able to tackle the mission ahead.

It’s lovely to engage with someone who clearly loves what she’s doing; passing on knowledge is clearly a passion of Mel’s - her enthusiasm is infectious.

I often return to lessons learnt from Mel when I find myself stressed or overwhelmed. A session may last thirty minutes, but the knowledge will last a lifetime.”​

Louise Holemes

School Teacher

"Mel has a wonderful energy and in-depth knowledge of different breathing techniques. Her Qi-gong practice is relaxing and easy to follow. I am so inspired by her, she really lifts my spirits."

The Carena 

A handcrafted breathing-awareness pendant created as a simple reminder to pause, soften and reconnect with your breath. Worn over the centre of the chest, where the breath naturally divides into the lungs - The Carena acts as a calming anchor throughout your day.

​

“A tactile cue to pause and breathe. When I place it on my chest, I instantly feel calmer and more grounded.”

               - Anna Brockmann, Nutritional Therapist and Breathing Coach
