About me: I am an experienced yoga practitioner: I began practicing yoga under my Buddhist grandmother’s tutelage as a child, and in recent years have started passing what I’ve learnt onto others. In this role, I combine my passion for yoga with my love of working with children.

I have several years’ experience of working with young people, and have a Level 2 qualification in Youth Work,as well as an enhanced DBS on the update service and a full Paediatric First Aid certificate.

I am also autistic myself, so I have a personal insight into the
challenges facing children with special educational needs and this experience has informed my practice.

I am currently studying towards my undergraduate degree in Anthropology from Durham University. In addition to this, I also hold a Level 2 qualification in Improving Personal Health, Fitness and Nutrition.

Thank you SO MUCH to and all the people who came out to support January's event. Betty Yoga pitched about our plan to bring alternative provision to young people in Stockton using integrated with sensory therapy. 🧘‍♀️🧘‍♂️🧠
We were blown away by the kindness, generosity and frankly very helpful tips of the people we spoke to! 😇 🤝 😇 We pitched for yoga mats and ended up with so much more than that - a sense of how much the community believed in our project and wanted to help us be successful, which was so humbling and we're forever grateful.🤗🙏💙💜 Also - we had our first session this week with out brand new yoga mats. So THANK YOU!!🙌🙌🙏🙏

Our first project of the night was Betty Yoga! They are passionate about using YOGA to bring alternative mental health and behavioural management strategies to children and young people in underfunded schools across Stockton-on-Tees.

They pitched for funds to buy yoga mats for their classes. They received 43% of the vote and went home with £340!!!

Had a great time working with students at Redcar &Cleveland College as part of their today, running sessions focused on managing mental health and encouraging well being by using disability friendly forms of physical activity. 🧘‍♀️🧘‍♂️🧠

I was also really impressed with how the boys went all in on the male only 'Broga' session, 👏💪👏 breaking that stereotype that yoga is only for women. Yoga can help everyone. 🤗🤝
