I can use any online video platform, but preferably zoom! We'll usually begin with a 5-10 minute check in of how you are, what's going on for you etc, before moving into a practice that I will have tailor made to you! As for experience, I’ve been practicing yoga since I was about 6 with my mum (yay for hippie parents, right!) - it’s something she has had a huge love and passion for since she was 18, so it’s kind of always been integrated into my life. When I was around 12 I went through a pretty low space, struggling with an eating disorder, body dysmorphia and OCD (as well as unknowingly having ADHD + autism), and after using exercise to harm, and surrounding myself with toxic diet culture, I turned to yoga. I remember the first vinyasa flow class I’d ever done - this lady (who I still work with and practice with to this day!) came to our local little gym, she was wearing elephant patterned hareem trousers (which, obviously, I thought were the coolest thing ever.. still do to be honest), and had the most genuine smile. She took us through this beautifully fluid, fun, creative practice and I remember thinking how cool it was that I was moving my body to empower myself - I wasn’t focusing on how many calories I was burning, I was embracing my body and it’s fullness in every shape. The practice taught me that there’s no shame, nothing to feel bad about when taking up space, and letting yourself grow. From then, I had, and still have this strong bond to my yoga asana practice - it’s like she’s a really nice auntie that’s just kind of there for me whenever I need her, to remind me how badass and strong and capable I am.

I started teaching when I was 17, and throughout the years I have continued to grow as a teacher, shifting my style as I cycle through different phases of life, but feel like I’ve come to this happy space of not putting too much pressure on the practice - I’m a strong believer in therapy, and in medication if it helps and doesn’t hinder. It doesn’t sound very vibey, but I honestly feel like my ritual of taking my daily meds is a strong part of my wellness and healing experience, I know it’s nothing to be ashamed of - some of our brains just don’t produce enough of the chemicals we need, that’s all.

Alongside medication, and movement about 3 times a week (at the moment it’s body combat and lifting weights, it makes me feel so strong and empowered!), I go to therapy regularly. I’ve been going since I was 16, and it continues to be an invaluable practice for me, helping me to gain awareness of myself and how I navigate having a neurospicy brain!
