Yoga is for everyone! This class is designed to be as inclusive as possible. Promoting students to be present and true to their unique bodies and set of experiences. The class invites students to participate in Asana (movement) practice as well as Paranayama (breath work) in order to feel grounded and present on and off of the Yoga mat! There will be a combination of strengthening and opening Yoga Asanas.

My classes are informed by my own experience of being deaf - if you have any access needs or are apprehensive about joining a studio Yoga class I aim to give you the confidence and understanding of the possibilities of Yoga.

Présentation

I have a nurturing and welcoming approach to teaching. I aim to be responsive and present in my classes, recognising the needs of the students in the room. I allow space for students receive my teacher offerings as well as having autonomy over their own practice choices.

I was introduced to Yoga through my Contemporary Dance training, and similarly to many others I was drawn to the movement practice within Yoga. I quickly began to notice the wealth of knowledge that Yoga offers is much greater than physical exercise. I aim to share the benefits of Yogic principles with students so that they are able adopt these concepts throughout many aspects of their life.

My dance training has given me an awareness of the body and alignment that promotes safe and strong physical practice. I also welcome wobbles and 'mistakes'!

I have previously taught Yoga to community groups that exclusively use BSL (British Sign Language). I am deaf myself but use speech to communicate. These classes quickly became my favourite time of the week! I noticed the accessibility issues that many Yoga studios have, and I am open to offering classes that are tailored to individual needs.

I’m a self-employed yoga teacher freshly installed in London. I teach vinyasa yoga as slow or fast paced as you need, with a strong focus on intertwining the rich yoga philosophy with the physical practice.

I trained as a Vinyasa Yoga Teacher in San Francisco at Laughing Lotus (now renamed Lotusland Yoga) with Jasmine Tarkeshi and Brima Jah. This teacher training was life changing for me, and as I soaked in Jasmine & Brima’s knowledge, kindness and values, I strengthened my own yoga practice and developed my own way of sharing yoga with others.

My approach to teaching can be summarized in three major commitments:
- honouring yoga’s roots: I use both sanskrit and english names for asanas, I’m passionate about yoga mythology and love sharing the stories behind my favorite shapes
- offering teachings that represent the whole yoga philosophy: yoga is so much more than a workout, my classes always have an intention to them, they tend to be focused on one or two of the chakras and include at least another of the eight limbs (pranayama, one of the yamas or niyamas, meditation...)
- making my classes accessible to various communities and identities: yoga is for all! I offer many options in every asana to make them accessible to all bodies, I always encourage practitioners to rest as needed and follow their own pace, and I avoid using gendered cues that are inherently exclusive.

I’ve lived in many places and I've worked as a medical imaging software engineer for six years. A year ago, I quit my job and spent a sabbatical year with my partner, traveling Europe in our van. This year-long journey taught me so much and reinforced my confidence that I want yoga to be a major part of my life (both professional and personal). So as we settle into our new home in London, I’m taking this opportunity to focus on my career as a yoga teacher.
