After 15 years in hospitality and residential management I had the opportunity to travel to South-East Asia for two years, where I discovered the art of yoga. I was amazed at the level of physical and mental discipline required to master the poses and techniques, and the spiritual and emotional benefits that yoga could bring.

During my time in Asia I obtained several diplomas in Yoga Training (TTC 200), Thai Massage (5 levels), Reflexology, Face Massage and Aromatherapy.

On my return to London I started working at Battersea Yoga Studio, before becoming studio manager until November 2022, when the studio sadly closed its doors. It was at this point I decided to open my own studio – Casita Yoga Battersea.

I designed Casita Yoga Battersea to be non-elitist, and more accessible to a wider audience. Yoga is an ancient practice that should be enjoyed by people of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities. I wanted to create an inclusive studio that welcomes everyone, providing a safe and comfortable space for all.

My experience in South-East Asia combined with my professional experience in the hospitality and Yoga industry has helped to address yoga and yoga studio management with a new approach. And I am grateful for the opportunity to share my experience with others through Casita Yoga Battersea.
