Originally from Portugal, I moved to London to further my training in contemporary dance at Trinity Laban Conservatoire.

Taking good care of my body was a big part of my routine. However, my first 'true' encounter with yoga was in 2011 while working as a professional dancer. It was a key component to my rehabilitation after sustaining a knee injury and so, after that, I continued my practice alongside my work as a dancer.

Finding inumerous benefits in the practice - from the most obvious such as strength and flexibility to more concentration and better dealing with frustrations and stress of the daily life of a freelancer - I felt compelled to share these breakthroughs with others around me. I then finally took the plunge and went training in Ashtanga Vinyasa and Rocket with The Yoga People in London and never looked back.

​Living in London gives me the opportunity to study with truly amazing teachers. I gives my thanks to Jamie & Dulce from The Yoga People, Marcus Veda for all his teachings and guidance and Alaric Newcombe for my newfound love for the Iyengar method.
