About

I am here to help make Yoga, Yoga Therapy and Mindfulness practices accessible to all walks of life. I offer a holistic approach that combines breathing techniques, mindfulness and a therapeutic approach to yoga. I have been practising Yoga and Mindfulness for the last 10 years. The practices helped to navigate me through my own mental health crisis of anxiety and depression. I kept coming back to the practices as I left each class feeling happy, grounded and a wee bit stronger. I believe that Yoga and Mindfulness are gifts that should be shared with kindness and compassion. I strongly believe that we can all benefit in some way through Yoga teachings and a regular practice.

I graduated with a BSc (Honours) degree in Psychology from the Open University. I trained and qualified as a yoga teacher in North London under the tuition of some of the UK’s best known yoga teachers including; Michael James Wong, Emily-Clare Hill, Jonelle Lewis and Katarina Rayburn. I then qualified as a Yoga Therapist from the prestigious Minded Institute in The Tara Yoga Centre, Old Street. I have completed my teacher training qualification in Mindfulness Meditation with the Oxford based company, Mindfulness Now. I am also a First Aider, a Mental Health First Aider and a have recently completed my certification in First Response Emergency Care.  My interests are people centric, I have a passion for offering support and guidance through the challenges of everyday life.
