About Me

At the age of 7, I remember finding this black and white, 1970s yoga book in our living room at home. To this day, I have no idea where the book came from. But it was a manual of yoga postures.

I was mesmerised. Right there and then, I started trying to recreate the poses. I failed dismally. But I was intrigued.

Growing up, I wasn’t really into any kind of fitness. I never attended ballet, dance or gymnastics classes although I did enjoy swimming. It wasn’t until my mid-20s that I discovered yoga, exploring Yin, Hatha, and Vinyasa classes.

At that time, I had just purchased my first home and was a few years into my career working for an IT services organisation. Although I contemplated training as a yoga teacher back then, I just couldn’t justify the investment; I needed to work, get some experience and pay off my graduate loans.

Nevertheless, my desire to learn more about yoga and its many benefits never faded, and I continued to deepen my practice and understanding of this ancient discipline.

Fast forward to 2019, and I completed my 300-hour British Wheel of Yoga (BWY) Teacher Training course. I feel privileged to have had Richard Adamo as my teacher and mentor during the training. As both the Chair of BWY and a highly experienced teacher with over 30 years of expertise, he instilled in me a newfound curiosity, courage, and a willingness to explore my practice—while always respecting my body’s limitations.

In case you’re not familiar with BWY, it is the largest yoga organisation in the UK and the governing body for yoga under Sport England. Its training programmes and continuing professional development opportunities are widely respected.

Yoga is a rich, multi-layered practice, and I believe there is always more to discover. Through ongoing learning, I’m continually expanding my knowledge and finding new ways to enrich my teaching.

In March 2023, I completed a 50-hour Yin Yoga teacher training course with the BWY and lead monthly Yin Yoga sessions in Houlton designed to help you improve mobility and unlock your body’s full range of motion. These sessions are accessible to all levels and beautifully complement my weekly Vinyasa Flow classes.

I am so happy to be able to share what I am truly passionate about. Through my own dedicated practice, ongoing study, and the invaluable experiences of my students, I continue to evolve as a teacher. I lead yoga classes and special weekend sessions in Rugby and surrounding areas.

When I’m not on the mat, I work for a children’s educational charity, developing meaningful corporate partnerships to make a positive impact on the lives of young people.
