Turning Chores Into Play
I’m a person who likes to have a system for things. I run my business with schedules and checklists, I plan years in advance, and operate the day-to-day and year-to-year with as much efficiency as I can. I do the same in my domestic life; I like an organised house. I’m soothed by having ‘a place for everything and everything in its place’. I like to count things; ..read more

With two yoga teacher training programs coming up in the next few months, this week I’ve been fielding a few emails from teacher trainees who are dealing with some self-doubt.

I’ve recently had a Canadian visitor for a few weeks, and we got up to lots of fun travelling, exploring, wine tasting, and learning some arts and crafts.

I’ve always been in awe..read more

So, in some ways it’s a bit hard to get overly excited about this new year. But, in taking some time to reflect on the journey of the past year, I can’t help but feel grateful for all the great experiences I have had, the lessons learned, the ..read more
Lessons From the Mat – Sequencing
I had a question from a new grad recently about sequencing, and she was feeling a bit pressured to be sequencing a new class every day and wanted to get some guidance. I have written a bit about this here, and will continue over the coming months to discuss a few of the foundations that I work with in my own sequencing. But, to get more ideas, I reached out to a few Trinity..read more
