About me About yoga Classes Workshops FAQ
I fell in love with yoga the very first time we met. From that moment my heart belonged to the practice, and it wasn’t long before I hung up the power suits and traded in a career in marketing for a life changing journey to India. Here I spent 8 months immersing myself in a yoga lifestyle, studying under revered teachers and completing a Yoga Alliance certified teacher training. I then taught classes and assisted on further teacher training courses in India before returning to the UK, where I have been teaching ever since. I teach regular classes and workshops in the UK, Europe and beyond.

My style is dynamic vinyasa flow, creating fluid, playful and flowing sequences to open the body, enliven the soul and free the mind. My classes explore postures and sequences that build strength and flexibility, encourage balance and on occasion challenge both the body and the mind! Weaving together my infectious passion for the practice, philosophy, inspiration and fun my classes take you on a journey to increase awareness, strength, courage and most of all acceptance for what IS as we flow beyond the thinking mind into a dance with the divine.

I return regularly to India to deepen my practice and have had the pleasure of studying with David Swenson, Danny Paradise, Claire Missingham, Liz Lark and Matthew Sweeney. I am also completing further teacher training in Core Strength Vinyasa Flow.

I am inspired by my students, nature, travel, adventure, the moon and life itself; but my main inspiration continues to be my practice. My time on the mat has taught me so many things about both myself and life. On the mat I have learned faith and trust and faced some of my deepest fears. I have learned to access my own strength, inner and outer. I have learned patience, that it is in the moment that you are about to give up that the biggest breakthroughs come. I have learned acceptance, that where you are is exactly where you are meant to be. I have learned how to fully live in and appreciate the now, and how to access a quiet place within that is available no matter what external chaos is going on. But most of all I am learning who I am, who I truly am, from the inside out. The journey of yoga is never ending and my learning continues every day, every time I step on my mat.
