I have been interested in Buddhism and spirituality since a young age and found myself more firmly on the path of yoga and meditation about ten years ago when, in a series of synchronistic events, I found myself at Hridaya Yoga in Mexico. I fell in love with the practice and kept returning for modules and retreats, completing my 500-hour teacher training course with Hridaya in 2018. I have also trained in Vinyasa flow with Yogasara in Bristol, UK, and Embodied Yoga Therapy with Samarasa Academy at Hridaya France. I love to be in this continuous journey of learning through guided practice, and frequently join CPD courses in both the UK and France, as well as sitting and serving silent retreats as often as possible. In 2024, I trained in Mindfulness-Based Nature Connection at The Sharpham Trust, UK, and I'm excited to bring these practices to this retreat. Nature has always been my refuge, and meditation and yoga have been a profoundly life-changing and heart-opening path, deepening the sense of peace and connection that I find in nature. I hope to share this through what I offer in workshops and retreats, and I’m really excited to be co-hosting this retreat with Nicky.
