About me

I hold a safe and welcoming space to connect, move, learn, love and heal – a vibrational frequency for peace and harmony in mind, body and soul.

Life is a flow of love

Yoga has been my way of life for almost 20 years. In 2013, I qualified as a yoga teacher, my first steps on a journey of deeper learning and self-discovery.

 

Soon after, I started to explore the teachings of Kundalini Yoga. I welcomed and embraced this natural technology and its potential to bring deeper connection to mind, body and spirit. The experience opens you to new sensations – more energy, positive thoughts, flexibility, strength and creative expression.

 

I’m fascinated by the healing qualities of the Naad (the essence of all sound). I draw on nature, music, mantra and the gong to explore how sound and vibration can help us elevate our spirit and enrich our daily lives.

 

Besides teaching yoga, I practice Daoyin Qigong, Feldenkrais Method, Butoh and Contact Improvisation, an expressive dance form based on deep listening, touch, momentum, shared weight and point of contact. 

 

These embodiment practices inspire my teachings and help inform new possibilities – for ease of movement, creativity and play – to find freedom within. To find a deeper sense of connection to self, to others and to Nature.

 

I’m grateful to be able to share these gifts with you.

 

I’ll equip you with the essentials of Kundalini Yoga, energy and body therapies so you can attune to your own inner wisdom. 

 

You'll learn how to connect your breath, mantra, movement and meditation to raise your potential. Plus, benefit from practical tips to de-stress, build strength, vitality and aid relaxation.
