My journey with yoga began more than 15 years ago, when I discovered its healing power for my body and mind. Due to our crazy modern lifestyle and different stressors, I went through a period of bad health. I realised that there was one space that I kept returning to in order to find relief from it all - the yoga mat. The soothing
effect that the practice had on my body was amazing. Yet, the calming effect it had on my mind was even greater. I was becoming more aware of my body, all the areas where tension was stored and especially my breathing patterns (or lack thereof)! I loved the rediscovered feeling of how everything within us is interconnected, all the layers, and not just the physical body!
Experiencing something that has had such a profound and transformative effect on your life is a great motivation to want to share it with other people. With the encouragement of my then teacher, I enrolled onto the teacher training, and the rest is history as they say!
I gained my qualification with the Traditional Yoga Association™ under Swami Ambikananda’s guidance. I feel honoured and privileged to be part of this lineage and tradition. I’m a member of the TYA™, fully insured and First Aid trained.
Although passing my teacher’s exam was one of the best moments in my life, I feel I am a forever student - continuing to attend workshops, training and CPDS with uninterrupted enthusiasm!
