My interest in movement began as a child practicing ballet and gymnastics, I loved Circus Skills at University and in my twenties, I started training in Tae Kwon Do. I trained consistently for three years and achieved my Red Belt before relocating to Los Angeles.

​

Living in Los Angeles introduced me to a different way of thinking about movement. I found myself increasingly drawn to the introspection, benevolence and self-practice of yoga, and to the idea that movement could be a way of understanding yourself as much as developing physical ability or skills. 

​

That eventually led me towards teaching yoga.  Once I began teaching, I quickly discovered that people arrived in my classes with all sorts of questions, challenges and physical issues for which I felt ill-equipped to support.

​

Rather than seeing that as a limitation, it made me curious. Over the years, each new person I worked with seemed to present something new that I wanted to understand better.

 

My subsequent training has therefore often been driven by a simple question:

​

That curiosity has taken me through yoga, Pilates, MELT Method, NeuroKinetic Therapy, anatomy and movement assessment, specialist postnatal and women's health education, and massage and scar therapies.

​

I don't think that learning ever really finishes. The more I discover about the body, the more fascinated I become.
