I am very excited to share that I have been accepted to study a Bachelor's degree in Osteopathic Medicine, beginning this September 2026.

This five year programme is a significant commitment, but one that feels like a natural and exciting progression of everything I've been working towards throughout my career.

For the past seven years, I have had the privilege of helping people move more freely, build strength and reconnect with their bodies through yoga and reformer pilates. It has been an incredibly rewarding journey and one that has continually fuelled my curiosity about the human body.

Social media is flooded with yoga selfies, advanced poses and endless videos of seemingly effortless movement, it's easy to forget the core of yoga: it is your own practice. Not your neighbours, not the instructor’s, not the influencer’s on Instagram. Just yours. Yoga was never meant to be a competitive sport or a performance for others. It’s a deeply personal journey, an invitation to turn inward, to reconnect with your breath, your body and your spirit.

As the long days of summer draw to a close and the back-to-school routine kicks in, many of us find ourselves craving structure, balance and a return to healthy habits. With the kids back at school and the calendar shifting into a new season, September comes with renewed motivation to focus on personal goals for many clients. It's the perfect time to begin (or return to) their Reformer Pilates journey and a little bit more self care.

The transition to motherhood is one of the most incredible experiences in a woman's life. While the physical changes are often the focus, the mental and emotional impact can be just as significant. New mothers face a variety of challenges, from sleep deprivation to adjusting to a new routine, all of which can contribute to stress, anxiety and even postnatal depression. During this time, caring for one's body and mind is crucial. One of the most effective ways to do so is through post-natal yoga and pilates, two practices that not only help restore physical strength but also prioritise mental well-being.

Losing weight requires a balance of healthy eating, regular exercise, consistency and a focus on overall well-being. Rather than looking for a quick fix, aim for lifestyle changes that are sustainable in the long run. It’s important to be patient with yourself, celebrate your progress and make adjustments as needed.

It is incredibly important to not only be mindful, but gentle with your body and your thoughts - both play a crucial role in your overall well-being, which impacts all areas of your life.

Forming meaningful relationships with clients is a significant part of teaching Pilates. These connections can create a supportive and motivating environment for both you and your clients.

Practicing yoga outdoors offers several unique benefits compared to indoor sessions. Enjoy an enhanced sensory experience as well as a deeper connection to earth.

Yoga and Reformer Pilates complement each other by combining the best aspects of both practices to enhance overall fitness and well-being. Yoga focuses on flexibility, mindfulness, and breath control, promoting mental relaxation and physical balance. It incorporates various poses that stretch and strengthen muscles, improving flexibility and promoting inner peace.

Easy Pose, also known by its Sanskrit name Sukhasana, is a simple seated yoga position often used for meditation and breathing exercises.

Masterclasses often delve into advanced yoga techniques, both in terms of asanas (postures) and pranayama (breathing exercises). You might explore complex poses, advanced transitions, and variations that aren't usually covered in regular classes. There may also be a focus on more sophisticated breath control techniques and meditation practices.

Reformer Pilates equipment features a sliding carriage, springs for resistance and adjustable straps, allowing for a versatile range of movements that target the core, improve flexibility and enhance overall strength. Reformer Pilates focuses on controlled, precise movements, encouraging proper alignment and mindful engagement of muscles.
