Yoga

I teach creative and considered vinyasa, flexibility, yin yoga, pilates and meditation classes that combine smart sequencing with thoughtful language. Flavoured with Ayurveda and Taoism, poetry and myth, my classes empower students to expand their practice – physically and mentally – and find calm within the flow. Originally from Sydney, Australia, I now live in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and teach at The Yoga House and Wadi Qortuba Compound.

  • I fell hard for the physical rush and absolute calm of the yoga practice in a small studio in Sydney, Australia. After years of racing to classes before and after work, in 2012 I flew to New York to spend a year learning from master teachers in the diverse yoga culture of the city. I have been lucky enough to continue my training under some of the best teachers in the world, including Noelle Connolly, Maty Ezraty, Shiva Rea, Simon Park, Abbie Galvin, and Emily Stone.

  • Former marketing manager of Sydney's iconic BodyMindLife studios, I created an intelligent and accessible brand voice that captured a unique and diverse audience, both locally and abroad. With a playful and inclusive vision, I blazed a path that drew from the best in yoga, music, meditation and philosophy to punctuate the traditional studio offering with regular workshops, trainings and events, and form strong partnerships with the best international teachers and brands including Yoga Journal, Wanderlust and the ABC.

    Co founder of Yoga Cucina, a boutique retreat business which combines delectable yoga with seriously good food and wine in unique adventures around Australia, I believe that we can find consciousness in a shared experience, hands in the air or wrapped around a glass of wine.

    I currently consult on marketing and create content for leading Australian yoga studio, Rare.
