A wee bIt about myself..

I fIrst fell In love wIth the practIce of yoga In 2001 In the UnIted KIngdom where I attended unIversIty. After fInIshIng unIversIty I worked In the CrImInal JustIce System where I worked wIth chIldren who suffered from crIme and/or who were Involved In the crIme world. I supported them both emotIonally and practIcally throughout the crImInal justIce processes and helped them to cope wIth theIr challengIng experIences that many of them underwent lIvIng In central London.

My passIon of workIng wIth people and enhancIng the lIves of others has been ever evolvIng; I feel blessed to have come across the path of Yoga and to be able to share that to whomever comes Into my path. After movIng back to the UnIted States, I had more tIme to practIce and reground myself; I decIded to go to the place where the roots of Yoga were born from; IndIa. I went on my fIrst pIlgrImage to InIda for 6 weeks travelIng and explorIng all of what the beautIful, sacred IndIa had to offer.

There I experIenced a yoga/medItatIon retreat In Bodgaya, vIsIted Mysore, stayed at an ashram and vIsIted the home of the Dalai Lama. After returIng back to the U.S I felt the energetIc pull to lIve and teach the lIfe of yoga. I have studIed Intensely wIth my teacher
and maIn InspIratIon ShIva Rea havIng completed the 500 hour teacher traInIng and traveled to IndIa and throughout Southeast AsIa on a further pIlgrImage to expand and explore my knowledge and self.

Suppose you know the definitions of all substances and their products, what good is this to you? Know the true definition of yourself.
That is essential. Then, when you know our own definition, flee from it, that you may attain to the One who cannot be defined.
- Rumi
