Since completing my teacher training with the British Wheel of Yoga, the governing body for yoga in England, I have never stopped learning through my personal practice and study. It is through yoga that I have developed a keen interest in the human body and the power of the mind. I believe yoga can be a powerful tool of transformation for our entire lives, at the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels.
