Let's start at the beginning, let me take you back 2002 when at the tender age of 20 I moved to Dubai. Yoga for me was much more at that time about a physical practice at that time, It bridged a practice between lifting weights at the gym and running on the tread mill….. neither I particularly enjoyed. I still remember the first time I stepped on my mat, the mix of emotions and the feeling after! It was like someone had switched a light on…. From that point I practiced hard…. All different forms, starting with Sivananda moving to Hatha, Vinyasa, Ashtanga, Kundalini, I couldn’t get enough.
So in 2007 it was time for me to take this deeper…. I was only at the tip of the iceberg with my practice, the benefits and what this path had to offer. I was ready to take on this journey, I found my amazing teacher Stephen Thomas and after a few video called I enrolled in a 200hr teacher training in Thailand…. A whole month immersion at the absolute yoga sanctuary.
The training was intense….
7am chanting
7:30am pranayama practice
9am strong vinyasa yoga
1pm workshop/ philosophy / anatomy/ sequencing/ yoga nidra/ meditation.
You name it we covered it, all the way through till 9pm at night, where we welcomed our bed, only to start again the next day. The training touched all of us in ways we never knew…. Physically, mentally, spiritually and emotionally. Giving all of us this deep transformative experience within. The light in my heart was lit, never to fade and its here where I share my teachings.
After returning from Thailand I lacked the confidence to teach, so trusting the path, I gave it some space. I found many other amazing teachers along my path, from Shannon and David life ( jivamuki yoga) Yogeswari, Micheal Gannon, Max Strom, Scott Johnson, Kathryn Budig, David Wagner, just to name a few who I have been personally practiced with. I completed a 40hr fertility flow with Mercedes Sieff teacher training, 40hr pre / post natal yoga with Sara avent Stover.
With all these strings I started teaching full time in 2008 and have never looked back, teaching in Spain, Dubai, UK.
Yoga to me has always been a journey, a constant cycle of learning and discovering. A journey of relationship and union with the internal and the external. Everyday I love the journey!
