Tutor Profile


About

I am a British Wheel of Yoga qualified teacher (level 3), trained to a degree standard in dance & religious studies (Level 4 qualified), where Pilates is the foundation for strength and stability.

 

I have taught Yoga/Pilates in the local community for over 18 years and I have worked with a vast variety of stunning people.  Even now they inspire me with their courage to stay genuinely connected in their engagement with their body, mind and spirit. I teach between 2-5 classes a day, where I love to support clients to build a sustainable practise that will help them in every aspect of their life.

 

In my formative years I was born during a civil war.  I survived with a deep love of water, a love which was taught by my father so I would be unafraid. This experience has left me deeply interested in the space created by movement. Not just in the beauty of the breath, but in the grace given from when we move towards ourselves with love. I believe powerful healing occurs when we let ourselves know we are supported. Like art, we become alive with colour and life when we reach towards ourselves with the intention of coming home.

 

For me, my whole life practice has been about sculpting a deep yoga support that can be taken into both the darkest and lightest moments, to support all of our journeys. I hope even one of these practices you will be able to take and use as your own.
