I'm originally from the UK, and have lived in the US for 30+ years. I have two children, one who has mild learning disabilities, and the other who was adopted with a congenital birth defect. Even though I love teaching physical Asana, my life wouldn't be complete without my iRest practice, which I contribute to helping me stay focused and grounded through many of life's difficulties. I love to travel with my family and two dogs!
