My work is rooted in a deep interest in how we experience ourselves and engage with the world around us. Through the Alexander Technique, I aim to offer practical skills that people can bring into their daily lives, helping them develop greater ease, awareness and choice.

​

I first came to the Alexander Technique seeking relief from anxiety and physical tension. I didn't know what to expect, but I left those early lessons feeling calmer and more grounded. That experience stayed with me and my interest in the work grew. After several years of regular lessons, I decided to train as a teacher.

​

Today I offer one-to-one lessons and small group workshops in Glasgow and elsewhere, and teach the Alexander Technique at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland.

​

Following my Alexander Technique training, I trained with Karla McLaren in Dynamic Emotional Integration® (DEI) as I became increasingly interested in the role emotions play in our lives.

​

Art has been a thread running through my life for many years. I originally trained in Drawing and Painting at Edinburgh College of Art and worked professionally as an artist for many years. Today, I maintain a studio practice alongside my teaching.

​

Yoga has also been an important influence. My first teacher was Ernest Coates, who introduced me to classical yoga practices that I still draw upon today, and later I studied with Sophy Hoare, a direct student of Vanda Scaravelli.

​

I welcome people from all walks of life and aim to create a space where each person feels met and supported. I value the richness that different ways of experiencing the world bring to this work.
