"I feel so heard and seen training with Melissa. I really feel present in the change of pace and owning my movement to story tell, something I am not used to and need to work on more"
— Current Student"I love how Melissa keeps saying, 'This is your safe place, OUR safe place," which is 101% true! You can dance in her class without judgement, move your hips, feel sexy, touch your body, be the Goddess you are. Her energy, her presence, and sincerity while teaching the class is superb. She even has her way of preparing you, mentally and emotionally. I love the class from start to finish. She is one genuine human being and I am glad that I get to attend her classes even though it is 45 min away from me on a good day!"
— Current Student"The dance class, Melissa and other women in the class are using the space to reconnect with themselves and face their fears and they are helping me recognize and transform the deeper layers of myself that I'm still afraid of."
—Current Student"So happy that you started Sultry Sunday! It is truly an amazing space to be in. You really create a welcoming environment and help women feel so confident in their body, a heel, and the movement. You have helped me immensely and I thank you for that."
— Current Student"Dance feels like freedom again thanks to the one and only Melissa Westlake! What I think of her would exceed word counts here, but what I can say is that it feels rare these days to encounter someone who is as beautiful inside as they are out. Someone who uses their words with care and love towards others and genuinely wants to see them win. The way she speaks to others, uplifts, and shares her gifts is a true testament to the love she carries for herself and the love she so openly gives to others, thank you!"
