North Shore Yoga

I was born in Bristol, England on March 31st 1967, making me an Aries.

While there, I earned an NNEB, a child development and psychology degree. After working as both a pre-school teacher and nanny, I moved to New York in 1988, to work as a nanny. I was fortunate enough to work for a lovely family whose work took them around the world and we traveled to Norway, Japan, Australia and England.

As luck would have it, I met my husband Mike shortly after moving here and made the USA my permanent home! We’ve traveled around the states and have finally settled in Hixson, TN. We have two beautiful children, Liam aged 9, Cerys aged 5 and a yellow lab named Ted.

I have continued to teach pre school children, but most recently worked as the director of Kids r Kids School of Quality Learning in Hixson.

I discovered yoga in 2002, 6 months before discovering I was pregnant with my daughter and found it to be wonderfully restoratorive, stress relieving and strengthening. I actually learned how to do headstand while pregnant with her! I continued practicing throughout my pregnancy and to this day have been an avid yoga student and lover.

In 2005, I studied with Jodi B. Komitor at her studio in New York City, and am now a certified Next Gen Teacher.
