About

I am a yoga teacher, movement researcher and neuroscientist interested in how the brain learns movement.

After years of teaching yoga, I became fascinated by why some movements feel intuitive while others remain surprisingly difficult to learn. That curiosity led me to study cognitive neuroscience at the MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit (CBU), University of Cambridge, where I completed my MPhil and am now continuing my research as a PhD researcher in the Plasticity Lab.

My research combines neuroscience, wearable technology and AI to explore how we can help people learn to move better. As a Cambridge NeuroWorks Frontier Fellow (funded by ARIA), I am translating this research into wearable neurotechnology that enhances body awareness and supports motor learning, with initial applications in pelvic floor rehabilitation and broader implications for rehabilitation, healthy ageing and human performance.

For me, yoga has always been a way to explore the relationship between movement, attention and learning. Whether in the laboratory or the studio, I am driven by two questions: How can we help people learn to move better? And how can developing greater awareness of our bodies improve our health and wellbeing?

My Journey

I discovered yoga in 2013 while training for my first half marathon after years as a competitive swimmer and swim coach. What began as cross-training soon became a lifelong practice, leading me to teach and eventually inspiring my research into movement, motor learning and the relationship between the brain and the body.

I am based between South London and Cambridge, teaching both online and in studios. I am available for private tuition, workshops, retreats, events and corporate bookings.
