General information

Someone recently asked me why I practice yoga? After some reflection what came to me was three words: Connect - Inspire - Reveal

CONNECT: When I was 23yrs my mother died, as she practiced yoga, it was a way of connecting with her again. From my very first class I found a place of such peace and stillness that lasted for days after, even amidst the craziness of London. I felt I'd been away on holiday, little did I know back then that I'd been on holiday to myself. When I was pregnant, yoga gave me a growing connection to my baby and to my changing body - a sense I was nurturing both of us. Years later when life became hard, I used yoga as a refuge, my mat became a small rectangle of peace where I moved and breathed. Now I am beginning to understand the real truth and meaning behind yoga, it is giving me a growing connection to myself.

INSPIRE: The practice of yoga inspires me to be more loving, compassionate, truthful, mindful and in balance every day. I don't always manage it in every situation but yoga allows me to fail, pick myself up and try again.

REVEAL: Yoga offers me the support, structure and foundation to reveal myself and show vulnerability without my armouring and masks. To become authentically me and know why and when I am not.

and this is why I teach yoga, I hope to inspire you to go on your own journey of self discovery and experience the relief and joy when you can just be you. To connect with others, to inspire and be inspired and to reveal, so that others can reveal themselves too.
