My relationship with yoga started in 1998 and turning up for my first yoga class was one of the best decisions I ever made!  Hooked straight away, I explored many styles including Hatha, Ashtanga and Vinyasa Flow.

In 2002, following a life changing trip to South East Asia, I retrained to become a complementary holistic therapist.  A natural step for me was to combine my passion for wellbeing and yoga to go on to train to teach yoga

I completed the Yoga Alliance 200 hr Hatha Yoga Teacher Training certificate with SYT Barry Todd in 2013 and the following year went on to complete a further 200 hour Yoga Alliance Ashtanga teaching certificate with Union Yoga under the tutelage of Brian Cooper and Nichi Green.  I have also completed teacher training with David Swenson and Manju Pattabhi Jois. I have been fortunate to have practiced with many famous teachers and also not so famous, all of whom have helped to illuminate my path.

Yoga really did change my life, I love sharing its many benefits and will continue to study and practice for as long as I am able.

I teach yoga in Rochdale, North and South Manchester to a beginner and intermediate level.  I have a passion for wellbeing and believe that everyone can learn the benefits of yoga to bring more calm into their lives, increase flexibility, build strength and awareness of breath and body. I have a holistic approach to health and to teaching.
