My relationship with yoga began long before I ever stepped onto a teacher training. As a child, I was inspired by my bohemian grandmother, who travelled to India after the Second World War and brought home a way of living that valued presence, curiosity and connection. She planted the first seeds of what would become a lifelong path.

I completed my first Hatha Yoga teacher training in India in 2007, where I immersed myself in the traditional foundations of the practice. Over the years, my journey has continued to evolve as my own life has changed.

For many years I devoted myself to the discipline and intensity of Bikram 26&2, discovering resilience through repetition and the profound relationship between breath, body and mind. Later, I found my way to Kundalini Yoga, where I fell in love with its somatic approach, its invitation to move energy, and its capacity to reconnect us with our deepest selves. I went on to complete my Level 2 Kundalini Yoga training.

Most recently, my path has brought me to 5 Elements Yin Yoga, training in Thailand and deepening my appreciation for stillness, fascia, the nervous system, and the quiet intelligence of the body.

Today, my teaching weaves together these different traditions into a practice that is both grounding and expansive. My classes invite you to move beyond simply doing the shapes and into listening deeply to your body. Whether through dynamic movement or long-held stillness, my intention is to create a space where you can soften, regulate your nervous system, reconnect with yourself, and remember the innate wisdom that already lives within you.

For me, yoga has never been about becoming someone else. It has always been a practice of coming home to who we already are. And my wish is you feel at home on your mat here in the magical Studio Rio.
