Moving to the rhythms of your body and breath which are intricately connected to the rhythms of nature is the core of my practice and teaching. I offer supportive spaces and practices to empower us to be more fully embodied and to move more consciously through this world. I have been teaching yoga in Dublin since 2009. Having trained in Ayurveda and Yoga in Jaipur, Rajasthan in 2004, my love of yoga and how it enables me to feel so embodied and to slow down intensified. Having tried many different styles, I trained in Vinyasa Flow with Dave Curtis in 2008.
It incorporates strong alignment principles which allow the body to function at its optimum and ensure a safe yoga practice and body awareness which is integral to the beginning of the yoga journey. Always a student, I continued to travel to India and learn Ayurveda under the guidance of Dr Kotecha of Chakrapani Research and Training Institute in Jaipur. I also studied under Dr David Frawley and attended seminars with Dr Vasant Lad. My yoga studies continued with Dave and I have also been blessed to learn under the guidance of the senior Iyengar teachers, the Chanchanis in Dehradun, India and Ramaswami, the last long term living student of Sri T. Krishnamacharya. I am primarily a student of yoga and I teach what I have embodied through my learning.
Over the years I have practiced and studied many styles of Hatha Yoga primarily Vinyasa Flow and Shadow Yoga. My teaching is influenced by these styles. As the world becomes more chaotic and life becomes more exhausting, restorative practices are becoming more important. I always incorporate these practices into my workshops.
I set up the Samadhi Centre in Rathgar, Dublin in 2005 in order to share the gifts of Ayurveda and then Yoga with as many people as possible. After 15 years of growing and managing the Samadhi Centre, in 2021 I moved on so I could devote more time to deepening my relationship with the natural world and cultivating a life of reciprocity. This has taken me on an extensive journey, Vision Fasting on the land of Donegal, training to hold grief ritual with Francis Weller, becoming a community herbalist with the Plant Medicine School, Wexford, attending and assisting on rewilding, ancestral skills and decolonization courses with Lucy O’Hagan of Wild Awake and training to be a Rites of Passage guide.
As well as yoga classes, I also offer spaces for us to remember what we most deeply belong to, what we have always belonged to; this animate earth. I am committed to encouraging people to re-build and trust their innate sentient knowledge and relearn how to live as part of, and within a living planet’s wisdom.
