⭐️NEW YIN CLASS ALERT!!⭐️ Hello, I’m back and excited to announce that I’ll be teaching yin on Wednesday evenings at 7:45pm, both in the studio and online, from this Wednesday the 6th of April. This week we’ll be focussing on spinal release using passive holds in all the main directions that our spines can make. If you’re in need of some rest and relaxation then it would be great to see you there. Please head to to book. 🙏

🌟HAPPY NEW YEAR!🌟

Wishing you all a happy, healthy and peaceful 2019 ✌🙏💕

I've spent most of the year so far trying to catch up with life (aka revising for my next exam) as well as spending lots of time with my family. Feeling blessed to do so with this view.

Fun fact: the human digestive system contains as many neurons as a cat's brain 🐈🧠🐱

❤Merry Christmas Everyone❤

Hope you're all having a wonderful time with the ones you love.

*SAD POST ALERT* We'd hoped that Mum would make it for one more family Christmas together but it wasn't meant to be. Last Christmas Mum was supposed to be on holiday with my stepdad Mike but wasn't feeling well and insisted he go without her. I"d split up with my husband a few months earlier so it ended up being just the two of us.
We didn't do much apart from watching a lot of telly. We saw Whatever Happened to Baby Jane & then the whole series of the Feud (which we loved, especially the brilliant ), plus Home Alone and Oliver.
We ate chocolate, we gossiped, we laughed, we snuggled up with the cats. Mum made an amazing vegetarian Christmas dinner (and then made me swear not to let anyone else know that she could actually cook).
It was a perfect, grown-up, girly Christmas and I'll be forever grateful that we had one last Christmas holiday together and some quality mother-daughter time before Mum got really ill.
I know there will never be enough time with the ones you love but I really wish we could have kept you for a little bit longer Mum 💜

"On this path no effort is wasted,
Nor is there any danger of adverse effects.
Even a little practice of this Yoga
Protects one from great sorrow."

Bhagavad Gita: Chapter 2, Verse 40

When the unthinkable happens, I'm more grateful than ever for being able to teach and practice yoga.

It makes it all the more worthwhile when people approach you after class and tell you how much calmer, more positive and relaxed they feel, or when they're just plain excited about having made a breakthrough.

There's such a wonderful, supportive community of teachers and practitioners here in London. I especially love the smaller independent studios such as and
where you can get to know your students & classmates, support one another and really develop your practice.

Yoga can't solve all your problems of course but the practice and the people sure do help.

So if you're feeling down or not good enough or the s**t has hit the fan, this might actually be the best time to get out there and to a class.

You won't regret it 🙏

Excited to announce that I'll be teaching at Vinyoga's next retreat in East Sussex from the 11th-14th of October.

This retreat will take place in a beautiful, rustic cottage in the middle of the countryside and the main focus will be relaxation and recharging, (which I think we all need more of!!).

It only went live a few days ago and there are only have 3 spaces left so please check out the details and get in touch with Angie (hello@vinyoga.co.uk) quick if you're interested. Link in bio or head on over to www.vinyoga.co.uk/retreat for more info.

Today is my first day as an official part timer - woohoo! Juggling a full time office job with teaching yoga, (and trying to have a social life!), over the past few years hasn't been easy and I'm so glad that I'll now have more time to focus on teaching more classes and my yogi studies.

Kicking my new life off nicely by going to practise with this afternoon and then assisting on 200hr course this evening. See you on the mat! 🙏😊🚀🤸‍♀️

One of my favourite yoga teachers is opening a studio just down the road from where I live, woohoo!

I first met owner on a teacher training course with and she's been a complete inspiration to me ever since. (Kat is one of those teachers who always pushes you further than you think you can go and has been behind so many of my breakthroughs...)

Not only does Kat give fantastic classes herself but she's lined up loads of other amazing teachers on the timetable too including

Anyone in South East London please check out opening in Deptford next week! 😊🙌🙏

Last weekend I started the 500hr Yoga Therapy course with and I'm so excited about this training because it's always been my long term teaching goal to help people with mental health issues through yoga postures, breakwork and meditation.

Yoga has so much to offer here and it's not just those with diagnosed mental health conditions who can benefit; yoga offers practical techniques that could help us all cope a little better with the everyday stresses of life. (And the not so everyday too; a student recently told me they'd used yoga breathing I'd taught them to calm down before jumping out of a plane for charity!).

I'll be posting more about everything I'm learning but, for now, I need to get cracking with my homework so I'll leave you with a picture of us brushing up on our anatomy by drawing bones onto Michelle... 😂

Hiked up the hill and then did some yoga, obvs.

The contrast between the super hot beaches and the cool, rainy hills here in Sri Lanka is so nice and the views are just stunning... @ Ella Rock
