ABOUT ME
In 1996, I moved to London from my hometown. I was going to study acting — but what I found was something deeper. I was beginning to find myself, to express what I couldn’t yet put into words. Everything felt new. Intense. I had no idea where it would all lead, only that I had to go.
At the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute, I began training as an actor. That’s also where I first encountered movement classes — not as exercise, but as a way to feel more, access emotion, and unlock what the body was holding. I didn’t know it then, but that was the beginning. Before yoga, before healing, there was this: the first time I truly listened to my body.
In 1998, I began practicing yoga. A couple of years later, I was drawn deeply into the Ashtanga Yoga tradition. I eventually moved to India and spent two years studying at the Ashtanga Yoga Research Institute in Mysore — a time of intense dedication, discipline, and spiritual seeking. In 2008, I began teaching Ashtanga in London and quickly became a full-time teacher, leading busy classes in major studios like TriYoga and Yoga Place, and working with a large, diverse community of students.
But beneath the strength and structure of the practice, my body was struggling. I began experiencing repeated injuries — at times so severe I could barely walk. And yet, I kept going back to the mat, returning to the same patterns that were harming me. Letting go of Ashtanga was a slow, painful learning curve. It forced me to listen in a new way — not to the form, but to my own body’s voice.
A voice I had been resisting for years.
In 2015, I moved to Berlin. There, I began to let go of the rigidity of tradition and returned to teaching with more fluidity, creativity, and presence. I shifted toward Vinyasa Flow, exploring softer structures, intuitive movement, and what it meant to teach and practice from a place of healing rather than discipline.
In 2018, I entered a new chapter — not just as a teacher, but again as a student. I began working deeply with movement as a healing tool. I explored somatic work, emotional release, breath, sound, stillness, energy. I began to understand the body not just as something to move, but as something to listen to — as a living map of stories, patterns, and potential.
For nearly two decades now, I’ve been guiding individuals not only through movement, but through deep emotional and energetic release. My work blends years of embodied practice, intuitive body reading, shamanic healing, breathwork, chakra exploration, and movement therapy.
I don’t follow protocols or systems — I work with what’s alive in the moment. I meet each person where they are, physically and energetically, and offer tools to support what’s ready to shift. This isn’t about fixing or performing — it’s about unraveling, softening, and coming home.
