Melissa Anstey

Melissa is a lifelong Guelph resident who finds joy in connecting people through movement, nature, and meaningful conversation. As a yoga teacher and hike leader with her local club, she enjoys helping others feel grounded and inspired while sharing the beauty of the community she’s always called home. A passionate reader, Melissa believes in the power of stories to spark connection, reflection, and joy. She’s especially devoted to creating warm, welcoming spaces where people feel comfortable showing up just as they are—ready to listen, share, and be part of something thoughtful and fun. She’s excited to bring that spirit to this season’s book club.
