About the Teacher
Why study with them?
I’m a body-based therapist specializing in stress, tension, and trauma. My work draws on over 500 hours of yoga teacher training, a B.A. in Psychology, and professional qualifications in TRE® (Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises) and Somatic Experiencing. I’m also a certified life coach and NLP practitioner.
For over seven years, I worked with at-risk communities in inner-city Pretoria, South Africa. In my final two years there, I offered therapeutic yoga sessions to vulnerable women, supporting them in managing trauma-related stress, anxiety, and depression. This experience revealed the profound power of body-based healing—where individuals become active participants in their own recovery.
Since then, I have extended my practice to people from all walks of life. I’ve facilitated wellness-centered sessions in corporate environments, supported the elderly in managing physical pain, and co-created immersive experiences that blend yoga, music, and art—celebrating our innate need for self-expression through movement.
My approach is gentle, intuitive, and grounded in the belief that healing begins when we reconnect with the body’s innate intelligence. Through mindful movement, breathwork (pranayama), and deep rest practices such as yoga nidra—woven with the intention to move toward freedom—we co-create space for release, resilience, and a renewed sense of wholeness.
I feel deeply honored to continue expanding my yoga practice and evolving my understanding of what it means to be human: rooted in our stories, empowered by our resilience, and connected as conscious companions on the path of personal development.
