About Me:

I've been in the wellness industry for over 20 years - certified as a personal trainer in 2000 and as a yoga teacher in 2005 - with over 10,000 hours of teaching experience. Throughout my yoga career I've continued to learn, completing courses in restorative yoga, advanced teacher training and Ayurveda. I just completed an online 300 hour YTT program and am learned about pain science, strength training, accessibility and anti-oppression. I've taught extensively on many platforms, producing two DVDs, had a weekly TV segment, have taught at fitness and yoga conferences and online at DoYogaWithMe since 2010. I'm friendly and easy going and teach with humour and heart.

Interests:

When I'm not teaching I can be found chilling out with a good book, having a laugh with my friends, enjoying a beer at a music festival and spending time with my family and cat Leonard. I also love strength training, yoga, pilates, walking and just generally being outside.
