When children are struggling anxiety, low mood, overwhelm, or finding it hard to get through the day, talking about it can feel impossible.

Yoga therapy offers something different. A space where a young person doesn't have to explain themselves or sit still or get it right. Where breath and movement and rest do the work that talking sometimes can't.

I've spent over a decade in London schools, working with children and young people who were dysregulated, overwhelmed, or falling through the gaps. Because of this I do my best to create a space where children feel safe enough to be themselves, and not have to mask or pretend, where they don’t have to try hard, ‘be good’ or ‘behave’.

Sessions are playful, gentle, and go at the young person's pace. We might move, breathe, draw, play, rest, and notice how our bodies feel. Each session with each individual is different, and no prior experience of yoga needed.

I work with young people experiencing anxiety, low mood, emotional overwhelm, trauma, and neurodivergence including ADHD. My work draws on ten years’ in the classroom, specialist training in Yoga Therapy for Child and Adolescent Mental Health (Minded Institute) and Yoga on the Lane’s Yoga Club: Proper Yoga for Kids training, and a belief that every young person deserves a space where their nervous system can rest.

I have delivered yoga to hundreds of children at Dagenham Park Church of England School, St Paul’s Academy, Ambler Primary, Grasmere Primary, Avanti Gardens, Daubeney Primary, and The Excelsior Academy. In the past, I ran the Yoga Club at Yoga on the Lane.

The tools we develop collaboratively can be used at home, at school, and in moments when things get hard.

My rate is £50 (online/Zoom).
