I'm a forty something single mum of two girls who has recently gone through a divorce. I am in a new committed relationship with a man who lives across the road from us (with his two kids) and we are co-experiencing and co-creating all that comes with blended family living, bringing up our four children, from two separate houses. It's mostly fun, but can seem hard sometimes to try and keep everyone happy. Our happy place is anywhere away in our Caravan (sometimes we just stay in it on the driveway)!
I have been on a personal journey to relight my spark of magic within and to breathe life back into my innate creativity. It has led to me writing my first book and training as an mBIT coach so that I can help other women who feel a call to adventure into something new, grow spiritually or who may suspect that they are neuro divergent and want to care for their energy and mental health without diagnosis or medication. I personally identify as a perimenopausal women who has discovered and self-diagnosed ADHD in myself and recognise neuro divergent tendencies and traits in many of my family members. I love learning about myself and growing into a more confident, creative and capable woman.
I love to move with this community and am proud of the Movement Foundations course which helps people understand more about their human body and to move it more - the easy way! These days I enjoy more and more time alone at home to write my book, journal, paint, practice tarot, sing songs and learn about Human Design.
In my coaching practice I help you to discover wisdom that is already inside of you to help overcome problems in life which may hold you back from feeling fully present in each moment and fully expressing yourself. I help you to create healthy boundaries for yourself and shifts in perspective so that you can connect to and trust your own intuition and feel empowered in your choices and your relationships, whether at work or at home.
Time devoted to my self-care gets me through, and you deserve that too!
To discover my blend of unique magic and practices and to help you discover your own, you can book a discovery call with me to find out more about my 1-1 coaching offers.

I have been teaching Pilates since 2010 and have been blessed to work alongside some great Osteopaths, Physiotherapists and Movement Professionals in London, Bristol and beyond. I'm excited by natural movement but also recognise what works for an individual in their own body and is expressed in their own unique way is what is often best. Helping people feel good and discover the benefits of mindful movement is what I love to do. You too can move with more ease and less pain through embodiment practices and a practice that encourages gentle experimentation, exploration and playfulness. I offer a seriously low pressure 'can't get it wrong if you tried' experience which helps people feel welcomed exactly as they are.
Through my previous work experience with Jeannie Di Bon who created Zebra Club, for hypermobility and EDS clients, I realised the potential for a gentle approach to teaching movement 'as a foundation' and how providing heightened awareness of breath in the body allows for movement without tension or pain. This led me onto studying with Evolve Movement Education and The British Fascia Symposium and now I regularly study Fascia, Breath and the Nervous System and keep myself informed about practices for increased mobility, benefits for neuro divergent people and reduction of chronic stress and pain.
I'm Bristol based and super excited to grow kind community through my work online and in person in the South West, and beyond.
I set up not-for-profit venture Movement Foundations School Program in 2019 and through this company have created a 5 week course to help bring more movement education and embodied self-care into schools.
In the past few years I have taken the Movement Foundations approach and ethos to groups of people with learning and physical disabilities at Choices 4 U in Active Centres around Bristol, to residential retirement homes and other community centres for The Bristol Bears Foundation and for SEND students and teachers at Warmley Park School.
I'm always thrilled to share my passion and inspire others by speaking at educational and business events on wellness and the important role of more movement for physical and emotional health, as well as to create a culture which celebrates and nurtures inclusion and diversity. Please contact me if you're interested in hearing what I have to say to help empower your people at a speaking event or workshop, I would love to make it work!
