Her wealth of experience with all age groups and her deep knowledge of not just yoga but also mindfulness, breathing, and exercise more generally as a form of stress relief enable her to bring a healthy, positive and engaging mix to the group.
She allows for a deeper understanding of yoga as being part of a bigger picture of personal self-education and self-care as a way to distress and cope better with life’s challenges. She weaves in meditation aspects, breathing techniques and also gives insight into the importance of a mindful state of mind.
