ABOUT MY OFFERINGS

Welcome to my website and for your interest in Yoga, Mindfulness & Meditation.  My classes are inter-woven with opportunities to immerse yourself in the 8-fold path of yoga.  Primarily an Asana practice I sprinkle in spiritual nuggets of wisdom via inspirational passages, poems, teachings from the Buddha, the Chakra energy system, pranayama, specific pose sequences, mindfulness and occasionally a short meditation if it supports the theme of the class. I am honored to be registered with Yoga Alliance as an experienced Teacher & Continuing Education Provider.  As a former dancer and personal trainer I feel Vinyasa Flow is closest to how our body functions in life (or how we want it to function!) and I offer this style in both my Mat & Chair-Yoga classes.  I am passionate about the Chakras, and hold workshops on Yoga Philosophy and courses on Meditation and Mindfulness. I am proud to be a published Meditation Author and my meditations can be accessed for free via Insight Timer.  FREE MEDITATIONS

ABOUT ME

I’m originally from England – yes, I still have the accent as I visit often - and I am grateful to have enjoyed a long and varied career in the fitness industry, working in London, New York, Kenya and Dubai. I started practicing yoga in my 20’s for stress relief and eventually certified in 2003.  I am married to a New Yorker (so tempted to spell that phonetically!) and we are parents of 2 adorable female cats and 1 handsome boy cat who drives us up the wall!  I love being in nature so I can “lose my mind and find my soul” (John Muir), tending to my garden and spending quality time with my husband, friends and family.  We currently live in sunny California.  It’s a good life!
