ABOUT ME

I have a compassionate, down to earth & whole-hearted approach. With over 1000 hours of training in mind-body approaches, a background in education and over 12 years of teaching experience, I bring a wealth of experience to my work.  

 

I trained to teach mindfulness through Mindfulness UK's Level 4 accredited course. This training emphasized the transformative practice of cultivating self-compassion.  I value creating safe, supportive and authentic spaces, having deepened my skills through study with expert relational mindfulness teacher Deborah Eden Tull. I'm also a certified transpersonal coach and trained in core counselling skills.

 

My Yoga Teacher Training was in a particularly mindful style, and over the years I've explored other mindful, somatic approaches to functional movement, delving into the innate wisdom and healing capacity of our bodies. This includes training in the nervous system and polyvagal theory - reducing stress and building resilience by supporting the body's natural ability to regulate and heal. These elements are reflected in my teaching style.

​

As an eternal student, I am committed to deepening my own practice which informs my teaching. I adhere to high ethical mindfulness & coaching standards, I maintain a well-established daily practice, attend regular supervision sessions, and participate in retreats, workshops and courses, ensuring a continual journey of growth and learning that informs my work.
