I qualified to teach mindfulness with Mindfulness UK through their Level 4 accredited course. A key element of this course was the transformative practice of developing self-compassion. I love creating safe, supportive spaces & I've studied with expert relational mindfulness teacher Deborah Eden Tull to deepen my space holding & deep listening skills. I'm also trained in core counselling skills. I follow the Mindfulness Good Practice Guidelines, have a well-established daily practice & attend regular retreats. I'm also an experienced primary teacher & am trained to deliver mindfulness in schools.

​

I completed yoga teacher training at the Yoga Institute Sydney in 2012. My teacher, Michael DeManincor, studied with TKV Desikachar - one of the most respected teachers of classical yoga. I have since spent years exploring other mindful, somatic approaches which encourage us to reconnect with the innate wisdom & healing capacity of our bodies. This includes training in the nervous system & polyvagal theory; reducing stress & building resilience through supporting the body's natural ability to regulate & heal. My teaching style reflects these elements.

I'm an eternal student, committed to deepening my own practice & I regularly attend workshops, courses & retreats.
