Senior Yoga Teacher · West Midlands

Find stillness. Build strength. Feel like yourself again.

Yoga has brought a spiritual calmness to my life and solved my insomnia — not just through physical practice, but through pranayama and meditation. Now I share what I've learned with practitioners of every level.

“My aim is not just to teach yoga, but to help you understand how the practice brings a sense of calmness to your life — and lets you be the best version of yourself.”

How I teach

I focus on you and what you need

No two sessions are the same. I keep classes interesting with a hint of playfulness, motivating you to try new postures while offering the modifications and adjustments you need to practice safely.

All levels welcome

Beginners through to advanced, men and women — every class is shaped around where you are on your yoga journey.

Groups & one to ones

Available for group workshops and private one-to-one sessions across North Staffordshire.

Modifications & adjustments

I always offer modifications and hands-on adjustments where helpful, so every posture works for your body.
