Queen Bee Belly Dance Melbourne 11 Yertchuk Avenue, Ashwood, Victoria 3147

"Mel is a beautiful dancer and teacher. Belly dance has been a essential tool in my healing journey. It has helped moved stagnant energy as well as taught me to relax my pelvis area which has been great for my post-partum healing. After 1 year of dancing I feel like a different person. It's never too late to start Belly Dancing!! Thank you Mel!!"

"Learning belly dance had always seemed unattainable to me until I met Melusina! I have never seen any instructor break difficult belly dance moves into easy steps like Mel! She's so patient and professional that I've never seen her not smiling, no matter how wrong things go! She's a natural artist & so skilled and I love that her work embed both softness and playfulness of traditional Egyptian belly dance and the edge of modern tribal fusion. For me, our sessions are not just about learning a dance, but a form of moving meditation to be grounded & come back to my body from daily life challenges. Her instructions has also improved my posture, confidence and the way I present myself in life. I enjoy dancing with her so much that it's 100% worth the long drive for me!"

"It’s a testament to Mel that many of her students travel a fair distance from all corners of Melbourne to attend her classes. Her teaching style is encouraging but driven, covering necessary techniques while still having fun. For those looking for something a little extra, join her tribal classes for another level of fun and exciting. I’m always looking forward to the next classes and hungry for more of this gorgeous art form."

"Melusina is such a beautiful teacher and has been teaching for years. Her love of belly dancing shines through in the way she teaches and the way she dances. We always have fun, learn something new and we feel amazing at the end. Class time goes way too fast. I can't wait for the next session. Thank you Mel x"

"After a year of Navel Gazers belly dance classes I can't say enough about how impressed I am with Melusina as a teacher. Her ability to skilfully explain techniques combined with her warmth and humour make every class a pleasure that lifts the spirit. She has total empathy for every student's level and confidence in their dancing. She corrects us very considerately and clearly loves to see us improve. I have had dozens of dance teachers in other styles over decades and Mel is outstanding among them as well as being a beautiful dancer and soul."
