About Me

My first ever yoga lessons, almost twenty years ago, were antenatal yoga classes with the wonderful Lolly Stirk, which connected me to my body and the little body growing within it. When my youngest was at nursery I found a local class, which happened to be an Iyengar yoga class, and from the first lesson it felt right. My teacher, Amanda Richardson, became a mentor and friend, setting me on the path to becoming a teacher myself.

In May 2015 I started my Iyengar yoga teacher training in Brixton, with Senior teacher Sophie Carrington. The course was extremely rigorous, both physically and mentally, but I qualified in June 2017.

This June I will have been teaching for 7 years and it’s quite a privilege. I attend my weekly classes with my own teacher Wendy Mcguire, as well as attending annual conventions with Iyengar yoga teachers from around the globe. I also go to CPD days every year as well as workshops with other teachers including Bobby Clennell and Pixie Lillas.

I teach twice a week in Crystal Palace in South East London. My teaching style is encouraging and precise, aiming to help all students improve their poses. Students leave my classes feeling relaxed, but also that they’ve worked hard.
