About
I am a yoga and Pilates teacher with over 14 years in practice and 6 years teaching. I have been an advocate for movement all my life. A young athlete for years in primary through to high school. A gym enthusiast. I worked in corporate for over 10 years and covid 19 lockdown offered an opportunity to escape the fast life and pursue my love for movement and mental health.
