To say that yoga has changed every bit of my life is an understatement. Yoga is my best fitness and mental health buddy. It has gotten me through some pretty big life challenges.
I dipped in and out of yoga during my teenage years and early 20s. I didn’t take it more seriously until my late 30s. By then, I had reached a point in my life where I was battling with my mental health and starting to suffer from ongoing back and shoulder pain.
I used to turn to HIIT, gym studio classes and running as my way of burning off stress and keeping fit.
This wasn’t working anymore as I got older. I had also by this time had 3 pregnancies which had changed my body completely.
I found myself practising yoga more and more both during and after and realised that not only did it do a good job of keeping my body pretty strong and mobile, but I was feeling much better about myself.
Curious to learn more, I decided to complete my teacher training (to complement a pregnancy yoga training I had done a few years earlier). Since then, I haven’t looked back.
If you come to a group or private yoga class, you will see that I am pretty obsessed with helping you get back control over your body, beat those aches and pains and empower you to get the most out of your time on the mat. I will also show you all the amazing ways yoga can help you unwind and de-stress.
I have been studying and teaching yoga both in group classes and privately for 8 years now.
I have seen first-hand just how magical yoga can be at changing people’s health and fitness physically and mentally for the better.
My passion is to get everyone moving freely regardless of their age and fitness level, free of pain and happier in their mindset and outlook on life.
Life is too short to be stopped from doing the things you love simply because your body and/or mindset have other ideas.
Yoga is the perfect lifestyle and modern fitness tool to achieve this and I cannot wait to share this with you.
Regardless of your yoga experience or your fitness level, you will receive a very warm welcome to any of my classes or 121 sessions.
Moving and exercising your body should be fun, empowering and rewarding.
My teaching involves different yoga styles, movement therapies and bodyweight training.
I am passionate about healthy movement for life. Age is just a number and you should enjoy a body which can do all the things you want it to regardless of how old you are.
It aims to challenge you but at the same time, be achievable
As well as moving and grooving the body, we will also bring peace and harmony to the mind and soul through breath, movement and relaxation.
I want you to leave the mat feeling that you have worked your body and feeling relaxed, renewed and completely zen.
