I was born in Africa and brought up in the UK. I always felt a calling even from a young age of 7 to seek greater truth towards the real nature of Self. I studied in Henlow Grange health farm in the UK completing my Esthetician degree, specialising in bodywork and breath. My path lead me to the East where I began my study of Yoga philosophy and practice of yoga at the Yoga University in Munger Bihar India under Swami Sukadevanada .
In 1996 I began teaching yoga, pranayama, mudras, and bandhas, while continuing my journey into the deep ocean of vedanta studies. My life and perception of the worlds both inside and outside of me changed as I continued to study and deepen my practice with Yogi Hari, Swami Vidyananda. Having a strong sadhana and heaps of discipline I started to embody the word YOGA – living it off the mat and into the world. In 1998, I received my soul initiation into the Brahma Gaudiya Sampradaya yoga lineage, studied and lived in India for 2 years under the guidance of HH Jayapataka Swami and HH Bhaktividyapurnam Maharaja.
Now, based in West Bengal, India. I spend my time offering trainings and running the Paramgati Ashram. I also travel the world teaching and sharing the practice of Yoga “as it is ” that was practiced thousands of years ago. I conduct and hold space for deep transformation through my Yoga Teachers Training 200/500hrs registered under Yoga Alliance International RYS.
With over 25 years of experience, I consider my contribution to the world a gift that I myself have received from my teachers and mentors, more than grateful for their blessings which really plays a huge part in who I am today.
I have been called in towards more feminine practice through my connection with the teachings of Gabrielle Roth, an urban shaman and founder of the 5 Rhythms. After our initial connection, I knew that I wanted to weave the feminine, fluid, embodiment of movement into my grounded practice of “Yoga”. A beautiful combination of where meditation and dance meet. Now an accredited teacher of the 5 rhythms, I feel I have found everything my body, mind and soul was seeking. My mission and dharma is to help all beings to be happy and free with the sacred ancient teachings of Hatha, Bhakti, Kundalini and Pranavidya.
