HOW I TEACH
I am a Wirral-based yoga teacher originally from London. Over the years I have completed 500 hours of training in London, Rishikesh and Amsterdam in vinyasa, pre and postnatal yoga, yin, ashtanga and hatha. You can expect a dynamic, flowing, sometimes demanding, but mostly playful practice in my classes, always with an emphasis on breath.
When you practice with me, I don't notice if you're the most strong or the most flexible. What I do notice is if you're breathing deeply, if your jaw is unclenched and whether you're listening to your body.
​
I have trained in both the UK and India, so whilst I know some Sanskrit and sometimes refer back to The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, you'll equally hear me mixing up my left and rights and demonstrating dancer's pose with a wobble. Nobody's perfect so come and join me on the mat where we can practice being perfectly imperfect together.
YOGA AND ME
I didn’t know what to expect when I first started training to be a yoga teacher. At best, I hoped the training would allow me something I could utilise if I ever moved away from London.
My mum is a yoga teacher so whether I liked it or not (and I didn't to begin with) yoga has always been a part of my life. And so I thought I knew yoga. I never expected the process of training to become a yoga teacher; practising asana, meditation and self-inquiry, to have changed this much for me.
The shift I’ve experienced as a result of deep diving into yoga and all it entails has felt tectonic. I've felt myself change to become version of who me who I always dreamed of being. I have learnt to be more present, thus helping my relationships and I’ve discovered how powerful pranayama is, helping me to bridge the link between my mind and body.
​
Through yoga, I’ve learnt what dedication really means and relearnt how to be adventurous. Every time I get on my mat, I’m practising adventure and discovering what’s possible.
