My yoga journey began in London 16 years ago when a friend introduced me to Hatha Yoga. When I moved to Luxembourg in 2008, I began attending Denise Pesch's Ashtanga Yoga classes and have been a regular student ever since. I was certified as a yoga teacher by La Source in April 2016 after completing its 300-hour teacher training program.

I value the many health benefits, physical and mental, that yoga brings me, and the fact that skills learned through yoga, such as mental focus and calming the mind, are of direct use in my everyday life. As a sports enthusiast, I appreciate the way yoga complements and enhances performance in other sports, especially as regards control of the breathing and body, flexibility, balance and focus.

I find taking classes with different teachers gives me a fresh perspective and helps me develop my practice, and have taken part in workshops with Kathy Cooper, Arnaud Cancel and Joan Hyman, amongst other inspiring teachers. I have also explored other yoga styles since moving to Luxembourg, including Sivananda, Nidra, Bikram and Jivamukti. I would like to help others appreciate the benefits of yoga just as I have.
