YOUR TEACHER 

Firstly thank you for being here and taking the time to look at my website. I teach yoga because I feel a huge push to share with others something that feels so amazing. It feels wrong to keep this magic to myself. I first found yoga in my very early twenties. I had a dream job in TV, interviewing pop stars, presenting, producing and living it up. I literally burnt the candle at both ends and was burnt out! I lived on adrenaline day and night and had forgotten what it felt like to feel balanced and calm.

​

My first yoga class was utterly overwhelming. The release during and the blissful feeling following the session was something I never wanted to leave me. My yoga teacher at the time Jay Rossi saw the impact it had on me and encouraged me to come regularly which I did.  I then immersed myself in 200 hour teacher training, with no intention to teach I just wanted to soak up everything I could. But I found I loved leading sessions. I think my background as a Presenter/Journalist really helped as I already has the skills to tell a story which is effectively what I do when I structure a yoga session. I tell a story with the poses and benefits, we have a start middle and end that flows effortlessly. 

​

Over the years I have trained with some of the most amazing teachers in the world. But it's probably Tara Stiles who has influenced my style the most. Tara is the founder of Strala Yoga which is all about moving softly, feeling, breathing big and not striving for an end goal. This was perfect for me as I have always tried to take the pretentiousness and perfection out of yoga. In my sessions you won't get all the fancy sanskrit yoga terms or be told to push and hold a pose. Quite the opposite! We have fun, make it really easy going and simply move how it feels good using the breath to help us! I am proud to say I am one of the only Strala Guides in Derbyshire and am so happy that I can help deliver a bit of ease within our community!

​

 Remember yoga is no big secret, it's not complicated I am not teaching you anything you don't already know. This is about reminding you to come back to your true self and feel your best. You deserve to feel good! I hope you can join me at some sessions soon. Any questions please drop me an email.
