A former PE teacher who allegedly had sex with a pupil at prom has returned to social media to post videos doing yoga and assuring viewers they can have a “clean slate”.
Melissa Tweedie was struck off the teaching register by The General Teaching Council for Scotland (GTCS) in February following an investigation into her behaviour with a teen pupil. The 28-year-old was alleged to have slept with the 18-year-old after the school leavers night at SWG3 in Glasgow in June 2017.
The former teacher at Gleniffer High School in Paisley, Renfrewshire, moved to Dubai following the allegations and later locked her social media accounts down during the hearing. However, months after being struck off, Tweedie returned to social media to post meditation and online classes on YouTube after changing her career to become a yoga teacher in Dubai.
In a series of videos, posted in May, the shamed Miss can be heard addressing her viewers as she moves around into various yoga and meditation positions.
She says: “Hello, welcome back to day two and another good morning and fresh day ahead of you. If today or yesterday wasn’t your day then just think today you have this clean slate up in front of you.
“You choose what colours you sprinkle throughout your day today, you choose what you take from your day today. Yesterday is behind you, there is another bright day ahead of you.”
Throughout the clips, Tweedie can be heard letting out loud moans and groans as she encourages viewers to embrace positions including “downward dog” and “cobra”.
At one stage Miss Tweedie’s Alexa begins speaking and the former teacher has to interject.
She says: “Alexa, pause. I am intrigued to what she just said though, all I heard was hormones. Bring your hands back to your heart and close your eyes.
“I just want you to feel. Feel and connect your heartbeat. The rhythm of your heart.
“Where else can we feel this pulse throughout the body? Feeling yourself, have gratitude for this healthy, healthy heartbeat.
“A healthy body I hope. Feeling grateful for this high hat your breath can give you.
“Say it out loud with me, I am joy. Have a fab day lots of love, see you soon.”
Ending each video the former PE teacher tells the viewers that she loves them before blowing a kiss towards the camera.
Tweedie was spotted dancing inappropriately with pupils and taking shots with them at the bar during the school prom in 2017.
She was then spotted on a bed with an 18-year-old pupil who claimed the pair had sex after he drank wine, gin, shots and beer.
Tweedie denied sleeping with the teen and told the school’s headteacher that she was at home when he phoned her from the hotel foyer trying to find her.
However, she later admitted to investigators that she woke up in bed with the pupil but denied having sex with him, further claiming that she may have been spiked.
