About Me

I have always been fascinated by yoga and have explored many different styles with various teachers. As my passion for yoga has grown over the decades, it’s weaved its way into my life. I have delved deeper into the philosophy and now understand yoga to be far more than just the physical practice on the mat.

Over the years, I have learned and continue to develop a wide range of yoga practices including physical postures, breathwork and meditation. These techniques have become integral to my personal wellbeing and help me to live more comfortably within my own skin.

Yoga is certainly no quick fix, but when practised with awareness, it can be very effective at improving well-being. I am committed to my own spiritual journey and have found that the wisdom passed down through yoga tradition has a transformative impact on my life. Having found yoga practice and teachings so powerful, I want to share this knowledge and experience with others through teaching.

My Style of Yoga

I completed Vajrasati Yoga teacher training with Jim Tarren and Khadine Morcom, who run a two-year course. I qualified with Yoga Alliance Professionals Teacher Training Plus 500 RYS course, which is the highest accreditation available for a teacher training course.

Typically, I teach postures individually, so that there is time to fully explore what works, and gain the most benefit from each posture. I regularly use yoga props such as belts, blocks and bolsters to help you feel comfortable, supported, and stable, so your breath can open up naturally. This way you can move deeply into the meditative aspect of yoga, calming the nervous system and releasing tensions in your mind and body.

I teach postures at a steady pace, so you are unlikely to work up a sweat, but that does not mean classes are easy. There is plenty of opportunity to improve strength, flexibility, and balance and challenge the body in a dynamic way.

Vajrasati emphasizes yoga as an ongoing journey of spiritual development. I continue learning with ongoing study of the history and philosophy of yoga. I have a deep appreciation of the holistic nature of yoga and enjoy weaving philosophy into my teaching to deepen practitioners’ experience.
