I'm a London-based yoga teacher, movement lover, and lifelong student of the practice.
Before yoga, movement found its expression through dance. I spent nearly 18 years dancing - from ballroom to street dance - and it was through movement that I learned discipline, creativity, self-expression, and connection.
When that chapter came to an end, yoga entered my life.
What began as a way to keep moving gradually became something much deeper.
Yoga gave me a place to return to no matter what was happening around me. It helped me navigate change, process difficult moments, and develop a stronger relationship with myself. Over time, I discovered that yoga wasn't just about flexibility or physical postures, it was about learning to stay present, breathe through challenges, and trust the process.
Eventually, the practice became such an important part of my life that I chose to leave my corporate career and dedicate myself fully to teaching.
Today, I teach from a place of curiosity, accessibility, and the belief that yoga should be available to everyone, regardless of age, experience, flexibility, or fitness level.
The styles I teach each offer something different, but together they create a balanced approach to practice.

Ashtanga is the foundation of my personal practice and the style that has shaped me most as a teacher.
Often misunderstood as being only for advanced practitioners, I am passionate about making Ashtanga accessible to everyone. Through workshops, classes, and modifications, I help students discover that the practice is not about perfection or achieving difficult poses - it's about breath, focus, consistency, and showing up.
Strong, structured, and deeply rewarding, Ashtanga teaches us that progress comes from returning to the mat again and again.

Vinyasa is where my love of movement and creativity comes alive.
Influenced by my background in dance and choreography, my Vinyasa classes are dynamic, playful, and thoughtfully sequenced. Expect strong flows, creative transitions, and opportunities to explore movement in a way that feels energising and enjoyable.
While the classes can be physically challenging, the emphasis is always on moving with awareness and connecting breath to movement.

If Ashtanga and Vinyasa represent movement, Yin offers balance.
Yin asks us to slow down, stay still, and become comfortable with discomfort. Long-held postures create space not only in the body but also in the mind, inviting patience, observation, and presence.
For me, Yin is where many of yoga's deeper lessons reveal themselves. When there is nowhere to go and nothing to achieve, all that remains is the breath.
My Approach
No matter the style, my teaching is guided by a few simple principles:
Yoga is for everybody
Breath comes first
Consistency matters more than perfection
Challenge and softness can coexist
The practice doesn't end when we step off the mat
My hope is that every student leaves class feeling a little stronger, a little lighter, and a little more connected to themselves than when they arrived.
