I am a dancer, educator and a registered SYT yoga teacher with the UK Yoga Professionals and with USA Yoga Alliance (EYT+ YACEP). I am the founder of Embodied Dancer, an innovative program that offers teacher training, workshops and education for those wishing to work with dancers and yoga. Prior to setting up my own teacher training, I was the senior tutor for asana on Camyoga’s teacher training since its inception in 2008.

Yoga has been part of my life since the 1980s when, as a student I became hooked on weekly sessions of Iyengar yoga. Later, I discovered the dance-like flow of Astanga Vinyasa and immersed myself in many years of both practice and teaching this form, studying and practising with senior teachers of the form and traveling to Mysore in 2006

My formal yoga teaching diploma comes from Yoga Campus in London (formally the Life Centre). I am qualified in pregnancy yoga, and have completed Restorative Yoga training with Anna Ashby at Triyoga, London. I recently completed the practitioners course in Thai Yoga Massage with Kira Balaskas

I hold a B.A in Dance Studies and a PhD both from Middlesex University, London. as well as having studied for an MsC in Dance Science at Trinity Laban Conservatoire for Dance & Music.

Today I mostly teach privately from my yoga studio in Norwich, offering one-to-one yoga sessions and duo sessions in restorative, Rocket, Vinyasa Flow and Ashtanga Vinyasa. I also teach at Hotpod Yoga and The Cat House

I believe as we age that equal emphasis needs to be on keeping the body active through weight bearing in asana and in finding deep rest through supported poses. 

As I reach my 60s, I am still fascinated by the wonders of the moving body and after four decades of personal practice, I am truly grateful for the gift of yoga.  I look forward to sharing it with you
