Biography:
My journey began when I walked into my first Bikram Yoga class in 2008. I was training to run 950km and was told yoga would help recovery and endurance. Little did I know I would be establishing my own studio 7 years later! I hated Bikram to start with, but after a few years yoga became my everything: my counselor, psychotherapist, doctor, healer, advisor and so much more. I'd always enjoyed working out and being fit but this was different. I felt energised, happy and complete. After completing teacher training I experienced a major life trauma that challenged me more than anything I'd ever known and again I found myself finding solace in yoga. I needed healing and I could see that so many others did too. I came to realise that despite never intending on a career in yoga, that my life path to this point has led me to teaching the yoga I'm so passionate about. Studio ownership enabled me to share this passion with the community where I live, where have raised my children and that I love. I wanted to create a hub for healing and transformation, so I can now share with others the Bikram Yoga sequence which is the perfect healer in its precision and consistency. When this beautiful location in Stirling became available, I felt that my destiny was assured - I've been given a gift and now I want to share that gift with others.
