ABOUT
I have been practising Yoga since my 20s, with "stretching" being my preferred mode of exercise. After trying and enjoying many different forms of yoga, I came across Iyengar when I moved to Dorset in 2006, where I was lucky enough to have Alex Klein teaching at my local leisure centre. I fell in love with the method of teaching, and have never looked back.
As a Primary school teacher, gymnastics coach and dance instructor, I always felt myself drawn towards teaching yoga. Becoming an Iyengar Yoga teacher is a big commitment (6+ years in total), so it wasn't until relatively recently that the stars aligned and I was able to undertake the training. For the last 3 years, I have been mentored by senior teacher and Chair of Iyengar Yoga UK, Hannah Lovegrove. I was able to finally put in for, and pass my assessment in April 2026.
I am passionate about teaching and passing on my knowledge of Iyengar Yoga. I have a group of very dedicated students who have supported me throughout my training, and I'm now excited to offer more classes
to the wider community.
BKS Iyengar developed Iyengar Yoga through a lifetime of dedication to the study of yoga. He passed away in 2010 at the age of 92, having passed on his knowledge and wisdom through his lineage of family and teachers from India and across the globe. Today, we still learn directly from his teachings through his many written texts and classes and workshops from rigorously trained teachers.
Iyengar Yoga is a tradition and authentic form of yoga which focuses on precision in poses with intricate instructions to guide the practitioner safely to fully realise their potential. With the use of props, such as belts, blocks, bricks and blankets, asanas (postures) are explored in a variety of ways, making it accessible to people of all shapes, sizes, ages, fitness, flexibility and experience.

Thank you for all the time and effort you put into teaching us all yoga.
I'm really enjoying a dynamic instructor who mixes up the weekly sessions to make them interesting and sometimes more challenging. It's helping me learn more about yoga and what I can do with movement. The balance of your instruction is just right.
