What I love about yoga

I love experiencing and exploring the stillness and the movement within my breath, body and mind. I love the grace and the beauty of the dance, I love the sense of peace I get from moving deep into my body with my breath as I explore my practice. I love the connection to my heart, the clarity and peace of mind, and the flexibility and strength it provides my entire being.  

I teach yoga because:

I teach because I want to share something that I love, something that has moved me deeply. It is a beautiful experience watching people transform and connect to the light within. 

I’m inspired by:

Love

My favourite music to do yoga: 

I love moving to the sound of my breath. It becomes an artful meditation and dance when I allow myself to move with the sound of my own rhythm.

Beautiful places I love to visit:

I would love to re-visit Sri Lanka. I haven’t been back in a very long time, but my memories are still vivid and bright and they call to me often. 

What I like to do in my spare time: 

The obvious answer is asana practice, I really enjoy being in class with friends. Any chill-time and play-time with friends is always a plus. I also enjoy being creative. Sometimes I’m inspired to paint and sometimes I’m inspired to cook.  I also enjoy being in stillness.

My favourite quote: 

So many to pick from, but here is one that speaks to me right now.

 ”If you think you can do a thing or think you can’t do a thing, you’re right.”  ~ Henry Ford
