I have been teaching yoga for 10 years. I initially trained classical yoga under Sri Dharma Mittra having been a regular student of his for many years. I mainly teaches Vinyasa (flowing yoga), presenting postures that connect from one to another through continuous flowing movement. My classes are dynamic, strong and challenging yet there is room for each student to go at their own pace. My teaching is hugely influenced by Anusara yoga.
I have been taking Anusara workshops since 2007 and I am in the process of becoming Anusara Inspired teacher. I use Anusara alignment techniques to emphasise presice alignment for a deep understanding of the yoga system. I also introduce meditation and pranayama (breath control) to centre body, mind and soul.
I am dedicated to the Vipassana meditation technique. I recently embarked on a Mindfulness Meditation course to be able to offer useful meditation techniques to my yoga students. I try to do my best at all times, teaching warmly and from the heart in the understanding that yoga, meditation and awareness improve peoples lives.
I am very grateful to all teachers who have inspired my path of yoga especially to Sri Dharma Mittra, Sarah Lewis (NYC), John Friend, Bridget Woods-Kramer, Noah Maze, Betsey Downing, Desire Rumbaugh, Susana Garcia, Chris Chavez. Especially to Frank Brooks and Kanta Barios for their continued support on my Anusara path. To S.N Goenka who taught me the Vipassana meditation technique.
If you’d like to read on here’s all about my dance background;
Coming from a dance background I am naturally drawn to movement. My passion for dance began as a child when I began a classical ballet training. In my early twenties I embarked on a modern dance training program and spent many years learning contemporary dance styles under some of the greatest teachers and choreographers. My dance training brought me to Madrid, Amsterdam and New York City. While in New York City I became more and more drawn to yoga. I found yoga helpful to manage the stress of embarking on a competitive dance career. I realised while I love dance the lifestyle of a dancer and all the challenges that go with it didn’t suit my spirit. I had always been curious about the mystical world, eastern philosophies and meditation so I embarked on a yoga path.
While in New York City I studied yoga under the world-renowned yoga teacher and spiritual guide, Dharma Mittra. I also spent time learning under some other great yoga teachers such as Sarah Lewis, Paddy McGrath, Danny Paradise to name a few. More recently I have been attracted to Anusara Yog and continue to learn this beautiful style of alignment and spirit under wonderful certified Anusara teachers around the.
Dance is still a huge part of my life. I love to take a modern dance class with Mariam Ribon and enjoy Salsa or Argentine Tango clubs in Dublin City whenever I get the chance.
