A little about me
"We are a little piece of continual change, looking at an infinite quantity of continual change."
B.K.S. Iyengar
Yoga came into my life when I was in my early twenties, during a difficult time. It helped me feel more at home in myself and brought steadiness to my everyday life. What began as a way to balance student life, and later long days working as an architect in London, has become a practice I carry beyond the mat.
Dance has been part of my life since childhood. I started with classical dance and later explored modern and contemporary forms. That early experience continues to shape how I understand movement and how I teach.
I first trained as a yoga teacher in India in 2010, in the Sivananda tradition. While there, I discovered Ashtanga yoga in Mysore. After returning to London, I became a dedicated student and assisted Eileen Gauthier in the Mysore programme at Triyoga. I completed Triyoga’s two-year, Ofqual Level 4 teacher training and later joined its teacher-training faculty, supporting Anna Ashby and mentoring trainee teachers.
Over time, I developed a deep connection with Iyengar yoga. After three years of training with Alaric Newcombe, I qualified as an Iyengar yoga teacher. The Iyengar method’s attention to alignment, precision and detail has shaped how I practise and teach.
My interest in movement also led me to train as a Pilates teacher and develop one-to-one movement programmes. I am currently studying Tai Chi, which continues to deepen my understanding of balance, ease and presence.
My background in architecture brings an appreciation of structure and detail to my teaching. I combine clear instruction with room for curiosity and exploration, and balance movement with moments of rest.
I have taught people from many different backgrounds, including women in underserved communities, residents of homeless shelters and staff at architecture practices in London. Everyone is welcome in my classes. I hope to offer a space where you can move with curiosity, build awareness and find greater ease.
