I have been practicing yoga regularly for around 8 years, from very early on I learnt the importance of having a daily sadhana (spiritual practice), a routine. 

Yoga turned on the light switch of self awareness and being awake in the world around me and since then the unraveling of the teachings continue to support me as life takes its twists and turns.

Eastern yogic philosophy was the main thing to draw me in and still continues to fascinate me.

With the booming wellbeing market and the popularity of modern postural yoga I feel very passionate about sharing yogic philosophical teachings in my classes.

I think wisdom from texts like Patanjalis Yoga Sutras can help people access states of yoga that are free of gripping and grasping to an idea of what postures and shapes should look like and in turn find self exploration with patience and kindness. 

I am currently one year into Vajrasati yoga TT and feel it has been the perfect follow on from the first TT I did. Over this time I have taken a break from teaching classes to really throw myself into learning and practicing. 

Yoga is experiential and although we can discuss, write and study its what we discover in our own practice that makes all the difference. 

The classes I teach are inclusive to all, often using props as a gateway to experience. 

Asana (postures) will be lead through a window of embodiment and play (Lila). 

I encourage people to find their own unraveling of the practice without fixing a goal onto how the shapes look and instead how they feel.
