ABOUT ME

I am a highly qualified and experienced Holistic Therapist and Yoga and Meditation teacher.

Ten years of living in London and a hectic job in the fashion industry left me feeling burnt out and unfulfilled. To combat the stress I was experiencing I was inspired to take a completely different direction, all down to the life-changing practice of yoga.

Since my early twenties I have experimented with different styles of yoga, but it wasn’t until 2013, that I truly discovered just how transformational yoga can be. My flatmate at the time, Tammy, was a newly qualified Bikram Yoga teacher and she encouraged me to try it as a way of coping with the unhappiness I was experiencing. I was instantly hooked, and I began practising as often as I could. Yoga became my therapy, it helped me through a difficult period and it kept me sane!

Fast forward a couple of years - I decided to move back to my hometown of Edinburgh. To be near my family, to start my life over, retrain and embark on a very different career path.

In August 2015 I travelled to Malta to complete my 200 hour FitYoga Teacher Training course. Upon my return I began training with The Scottish Massage Schools in Swedish Massage. The past seven years have been about building up my holistic toolkit, qualifying as a reiki master and adding many different types of holistic treatments to my portfolio. I've never looked back.

In 2017 I completed my Meditation Tuition diploma with Gateway Training School and I am delighted to share this wonderful practise with others.

In December 2018 I fulfilled a life long dream and travelled to Goa, India and successfully completed a 60 hour Yin Yoga teacher training course with Sampoorna Yoga School.

In January 2020 I returned to my beloved Goa and gained my 300 hour Yin/Yang and the Five Elements teacher training certification with Trimurti Yoga.

In April 2021 I embarked on a 30 hour Online Restorative Yoga Teacher Training with the Wonderful Eva Maxine Hamilton.

I have always wanted to make a real, positive contribution to peoples' lives, doing something I love and am passionate about - I'm very happy to say I'm doing just that!

I am based in Edinburgh and you can find me treating female holistic clients from my cosy, healing room in my Home in EH8 seven days a week. I also teach in person classes at Yellow Bamboo Yoga Studio in Portobello in the Winter, and I run Yoga retreats in Portugal four times a year during the Summer, please check out my Yoga and Events and Retreats pages for more details.
