What was your inspiration for becoming a yoga teacher?

Yoga was the only thing in my life that made me feel fully connected to who I was, it made me feel empowered and free. After 3 years of regular practice, I was in a job that made me miserable and my husband asked me, ‘forget about money, what makes you happy’, the first and only thing that came to my mind was ‘yoga’. So I became a teacher!

Your favourite yoga pose if you have one?

I have a favourite pose in every asana family, but if I had to choose (can I pick 2?? lol) ….. Handstand or Pincha Mayurasana & Parsva Vasisthasana (aka Wild Thing). You’ll see these ALL the time in my classes!

What do you enjoy most about teaching?

Creating unique and creative sequences and then seeing them come to life with a room full of synchronised yogis, high energy, flowing and breathing together. This is the ultimate feeling!

HOW CAN WE FIND YOU ON SOCIAL?
