Hi I’m Fiona
My love of yoga began in my late teens and it's been a daily part of my life ever since. I am passionate about movement and inspiring other people of all ages to move more. I am an anatomy geek and relish learning anything related to the fascial network. I love creating new sequences and finding fun ways to transition in and out of poses. I believe the practice really begins off the mat and the work we do on the mat is just preparation for creating a balanced lifestyle full of connection and purpose.
My teaching style is fun, creative and non competitive. I want to support you on your path to discover a practice that is sustainable and maintainable sharing with you the tools and techniques that I have found so beneficial and healing in my own life. I love incorporating yoga into my day even if it’s just 5 mins of articulating the joints or a simple 5 minute breath practice. I want to encourage you to do the same. I invite you to move with me on a journey of self discovery, observing the natural rhythm of breath, moving intuitively & intelligently to create strength, grace and ease of movement.
Trainings
I am deeply grateful for all my teachers and the knowledge they have shared. I will always be a student and will continue to study, learn and deepen my own personal practice under the guidance of my wonderful teacher Julie.
