A little about me
Finding Yoga
Little me was always curious, always asking questions, always called sensitive, and honestly often feeling misunderstood. Movement was always my anchor, expression and my joy, and the place where I would feel the most ‘me’.
After studying musical theatre at school, college and university - but not feeling fully confident it was my path - a friend took me to a yoga class in a church. I felt a sense of calm I had never experienced before.
What began as a way to soothe my anxiety became something I had to follow. Soon after, I signed up for my first 200-hour teacher training in Bali and stayed for several months to immerse myself in the practice. That was the beginning of everything…
I quickly learned that yoga doesn’t hand us all the answers, it often gives us more questions. And yet, it feels like the closest thing to quenching my curiosity for life, the untangling, the learning, the unlearning all feels like i’m being guided back to my truest self.
Since then, I’ve immersed in over 700 hours of training in various modalities with some incredible teachers, founded Wild Roots, opened and run a studio & coffee shop, hosted retreats around the world and worked with some incredible people and companies.
Some of where my over 700hrs of studies have taken me -
Over 400hrs in Somatics, non-dual Tantra, Embodied Yin, Chinese medicine & nidra with The Authentic Flow Tribe, Satu Tuomela. 50hr 4-beat with Marcus Veda. 100hr Breath-work, meditation, Bhakti, and philosophy with Micheal James Wong. 50hr Pre & Post Natal . 200hr Hatha- Vinyasa. 25hr Myofascial Release.
Living Yoga
For me, yoga has been both an an opening and an uprooting. It has changed the way I see and navigate the world, and opened me up to a life that I never thought possible. In many ways, I’ve become the adult I needed when I was a child.
I think it’s also important to share that If we are truly showing up, it’s only a matter of time before yoga brings up the not-so-sexy stuff, feelings or things we are most afraid of. At first, we might resist what’s shifting, but like a riptide, we have to swim with it - and in that surrender, we open ourselves up to new potentialities, even grace.
Yoga invites presence, deeper awareness, and expands our capacity to hold the dualities of life. It creates space to untangle from our conditioning, stories, and patterns, to drop labels and attachments, reminding us that even as we grow, we are already whole, already lovable, already enough.
Through my studies, especially within non-dual Tantra this understanding deepened: yoga doesn’t ‘fix’ us - it brings us home to ourselves. It has allowed me to meet myself, and the world, with more tenderness, reverence and awe. Even the messy bits. Especially the messy bits.
This is why my message is: bring it all with you. Every part of you is welcome, not just the put-together, but the messy, silly, beautifully human parts too. Remember, we are all, always becoming.
As a recovering people-pleaser, I’ve learned that when we put everything else first, try to be agreeable, or endlessly accommodate others without taking care of ourselves, it comes at a cost. We can lose touch with our joy, our health, and our truth.
I would also like to remind you that taking a break to take care of yourself is not selfish. Especially when you’re in survival or freeze, and you don’t feel like you have another choice.
You are not alone in your depths. You are not a failure for trying, pausing, or starting over. You are brave for putting yourself out there, no matter the outcome. None of us have it all figured out, and you can always begin again with all that you have learned, or not.
Lastly a big lesson for me has been, only you know your heart. Let yourself be misunderstood if you need too.
I aim to live and teach with honesty, to hold space for the real, often messy beauty of being human, and to support others as they move through their own chapters. I feel more grounded, inspired, and aligned than ever before, now with deeper understanding, compassion, and stronger boundaries.
Whether you’re in your depths, exploring your potential, or you are ready to live the infinite possibilities this life has to offer, you are never to late, you are right on time.
I truly hope to see you soon in a class, workshop or on a retreat.
