I have been practising yoga for over three decades, and am passionate about its power to provide physical, mental and spiritual healing. I love sharing the empowerment and joy of moving your body, in fun ways that will make you feel good throughout the week – not just in the time you spend on the mat!

Most of us have stressful lives, and modern life can leave us feeling overwhelmed and disconnected from ourselves. Yoga can help us to find balance in our minds and bodies through poses, breath work, and different perspectives on our place in the world.

I became interested in the spiritual side of yoga as a way to deal with a difficult time in my teenage years, and went on to study modules on Indian religion and philosophy at university. Yoga is a way of life, and that is why it’s so powerful – it helps you holistically, shifting every aspect of your being.

I took a foundation course in 2014, and completed my 500 hour Level 4 teaching diploma with the British Wheel of Yoga in 2018. This was a comprehensive and transformational learning journey that advanced my understanding of the different disciplines of yoga, and cemented my passion for sharing them with others.

I have also completed a 100 hour training in Yin yoga. This is a contemplative and slow-paced style of yoga practice, which targets the body’s connective tissue through deep long-held stretches.

I believe that yoga should be inclusive and accessible, and welcome students of all ages, levels of mobility and experience.

I am also a qualified sound practitioner, and have undertaken training in the use of voice and various other instruments for vibrational healing. I trained as a gong practitioner with the College of Sound Healing for a year. I also studied how to use gong flumies with B Love Sacred Sound, and am an accredited flumie teacher.

I was introduced to the power of sound as a child, through my dad’s passion for both traditional sanskrit mantra and an eclectic mix of world music. He had a record label at the time called Nada Pulse, referring to the Indian concept of nada – the vibrations believed to make up the whole cosmos.

The guiding principle of Nada Pulse was ‘self-realisation through sound’, and I take inspiration from this in my name, and in my commitment to the power of sound to transform ourselves and our lives.
