Did you know that I’m super into health and wellness, and am both a Designer and a Yoga Teacher?
The rumours are true! I have always been a creative, and I love working in this field. However, what makes me complete, is stepping onto the mat multiple times each week and guiding people through meditation, breathwork and yoga flows.
“Right now, take a deep breath in. Welcome to the happier side of life.”

🤍 MY MISSION 🤍
When you choose me as your Yoga Teacher, I aim to give you something far beyond just a physical activity.
I aim to help you uncover the core of your being, your essence, and the courage to adapt your life according to that.
I aim to help you find trust in yourself and your intuition, and foster a deeper confidence that comes not from ego, but from your heart and your deeper mission in this world.
I aim to help you discover a place of peace, not on the mat or in the studio, but within yourself.. .
…and show you how to use the ancient teachings and practices of Yoga in order to achieve all of that.

Where did I get my education?
200h Yoga Teacher Training with La Casa Shambala
In August 2024, I finally made a dream come true and went through this Yoga Teacher Training in Spain. It was an immersive, transformative experience that has truly shaped me. I’m grateful for everything I got t learn here and that I now get to pass it on further.
2. What is Vinyasa and Hatha Yoga?
Vinyasa Yoga is a dynamic and fluid style of yoga that emphasises the seamless transition between postures, synchronised with the breath. The term "Vinyasa" can be translated from Sanskrit as "to place in a special way," reflecting the deliberate series of movements aligned with inhalations and exhalations. This style encourages a continuous flow of poses, promoting cardiovascular health, strength, flexibility, and mindfulness. Unlike static yoga practices, Vinyasa is often characterised by its varied sequences and creative transitions, making each session unique. It is well-suited to practitioners looking for a physically engaging and rhythmically paced yoga experience.
Hatha yoga is a traditional style of yoga that focuses on physical postures (asanas), breath control (pranayama), and meditation. The term "hatha" derives from the Sanskrit words "ha," meaning sun, and "tha," meaning moon, representing the balance of opposing forces within the body and mind. It aims to harmonise the body and mind, preparing practitioners for deeper spiritual practices.
Hatha yoga classes commonly involve slow, deliberate movements and postures designed to increase strength, flexibility, and balance. Breath awareness and control are emphasised to enhance concentration and relaxation. Unlike more vigorous styles of yoga, Hatha tends to be gentler and is often recommended for beginners or those seeking a mindful, steady practice.
