HELLO
I AM SO HAPPY YOU ARE HERE!
How I got Here
My entire life is inspired by and led from the wisdom of yoga. My practice is living, breathing and embodied; it continuously allows me to feel the beauty and navigate the complexity of this life simultaneously - with greater joy, ease, trust and humility. It is from a place of deep reverence and devotion that I am a facilitator - I practice daily.
My offerings are guided from the heart and the knowing that each body in the space is already completely Whole, enough yet completely unique. I would describe my style of teaching as intuitive, nourishing, playful and fluid. My offerings are often inspired by nature's elements and are fundamentally about guiding people back to the felt sense of their own aliveness and the deep stillness of their natural, unconditioned state.
​​
I wouldn't say that I found yoga, I feel that it found me when it needed to. I am so grateful that I had a very free, loving and wild childhood, that when I reflect now, was very spiritual - my parents valued travel and wanted us to see the world - we'd spend the summers at festivals with my dad's job, running bare foot through fields playing, dancing, singing, and in winters we'd go to Thailand and my mum would take me to the temples and we'd lay flowers as offerings - I saw from a young age, how life could be deeply devotional and in honour of something bigger than ourselves.
​
Like many, I sort of lost myself in my late teens and early twenties - it was unstable time & life felt quite overwhelming. After I graduated, the pressure to pursuit our cultures view of 'success' made me take a corporate job, that made me feel the most anxious, disconnected and numb. At that time, my yoga practice became my true refuge, my return, the thing in my life that made me feel like me - every week I'd practice a traditional Hatha yoga class in this basement studio in Brighton. I remember taking a holiday with my family to Thailand when I really was not well, and I showed up to this yoga shala every single day and many times I'd be the only student - I really struggled with sleep at that time and even when I hadn't made any sleep the night before there was something inside me that made me show up over and over. I still remember that first teacher, who did a pranayama class with me and as she observed my breath she made me realise how much I was struggling to just breathe. It was at this point, I knew I needed to walk this path. A year later I took a solo trip to Rishikesh and completed my first YTT in Traditional Hatha yoga, and the rest is history - I've practiced daily and essentially taught full time since then.
​
Yoga has been the homecoming back to love, to connection, back to feeling alive in this world, in my body. I bow endlessly to this practice.
