"I started out as a Pole Affinity student and enjoyed how strong it made me, I then wanted to be able to pass this confidence onto others. I had also been practising yoga for over a decade and saw that as another avenue to help others. My Yoga Teacher Trainings in India opened my mind to the different aspects of yoga being positive for; physical health, self-discipline, flexibility, relaxation, mental health and spirituality.
I have been teaching at Pole Affinity since 2019. I love creating an environment which helps people to believe in the strength of their own bodies again and connect to the power of their mind. I am passionate about helping people feel good about themselves and aid them in accomplishing their goals. I take great pleasure in seeing my students progress in skill, strength and confidence."
