For me, yoga is a container to explore, understand, and analyse yourself and this wonderful world we live in. It is a set of practices; asana (physical practice), pranayama (breath) meditation and philosophy to live an intelligent life of freedom, strength and connectivity. It is a continuous practice, of finding your way, being perceptive and staying connected to nature and others.

My Yoga Journey.

Following my university studies in English Literature, I took an incredible life changing trip to Costa Rica to complete my initial yoga teacher training in Hatha and Vinyasa Flow. It was here, that I truly discovered how good our bodies and mind are supposed to feel. Since then I have traveled far to train with the best teachers from Bali to Peru. I am trained in Hatha, Vinyasa Flow, Embodied Flow, Aerial Yoga, Mindfulness, Yin, Meditation and Pre and Post natal yoga. Being able to teach and live what I love and believe in is an incredible honour.

My SCHOOLS OF YOGA & Yoga training

Embodied Flow

Embodied flow is an integrative blend of  hatha yoga, somatics, free movement, mind-body centering, tantric philosophy, and science. It elicits the experience of stepping into flow as meditation in action. I have completed both the 200hr Embodied Flow teacher training and the advanced Embodied Flow & Somatics 300hr teacher training.

Yoga Medicine

Yoga Medicine was founded by the incredible Tiffany Cruikshank and an amazing community of teachers that pride themselves in raising the bar for yoga teachers by providing exceptional training programs of the anatomy, biomechanics and physiology of yoga. I have completed an additional 80 hours of yoga training in yin, meditation and anatomy with yoga medicine online and in person.

I blend the two schools of yoga to offer both a feeling, sensing and an anatomical and educational approach to my classes. I continue to further my education with trainings, reading, and with my own practice and life every day. I love it just as much as when I started!

A message from me

As a teacher you are always a student and as a student you are always a teacher. I grow as a teacher with every class, student, exploration, and discovery on the mat and in my life. I want you to be completely comfortable in my classes to show up exactly how you are. If a pose doesn’t feel right or you’re in pain or discomfort we can work together to make your body and mind feel good.
