My Yoga Journey

My yoga journey began n January 2011, with Bikram Yoga. It was intense, burned calories, detoxed the body, and promised flexibility. It felt like the ultimate workout. Convinced I’d eventually turn myself into a pretzel! Then something unexpected happened. While I never became a human pretzel or fit the stereotypical “yogi” image. I managed to quit smoking after 15 years of failed attempts. Something I never imagined possible. It wasn’t the habit that fell away. I realised yoga was transforming how I faced challenges and cared for myself. That was a powerful turning point.

“When you finish one of Liz's classes, you are a state of yoga bliss. Liz has incredible knowledge and weaves this with her love of yoga to create an amazing restorative environment for yoga and for magic to happen. I really enjoy the combination of yoga nidra and restorative yoga in Liz's classes, it gives me time to take care of myself, in a safe supportive environment.”

Sue McShane - Former Yoga Studio Owner

“Having attended over 40 classes with Liz, I can say that she is such an amazing teacher. Be it Bikram yoga or Vinyasa or Pilates or Yin yoga, Liz is always encouraging and guides very well. At one of my early classes, she corrected my downward dog yoga pose and since then I had no difficulty practising it ever again. Liz always gives us a lot of variations with a single pose that can suit anybody. I’m a big fan of her Yin yoga class. One of the best.”

Yoga For Mental Health

Later, during my first of many teacher trainings, I discovered other styles of yoga taught in the West. I thought the only way to practise was by showing up to a studio class. Little did I know that yoga was not about any of those things. It’s not about performing perfect poses or fitting into a specific image. There’s no such thing anyway! It sparked curiosity. Could there be more to yoga? I discovered the many myths, due to how it's marketed. hat the only way to practice was by showing up to a studio class. All of this sparked curiosity. Yoga is not about mastering perfect poses. There's no such thing anyway. I discovered that Yoga doesn’t need to happen on a mat or in a studio. You can practise it in small, meaningful ways throughout your day. Through mindful breathing, meditation, self inquiry, or postures. It’s not about sweating or burning calories. That's an exercise class. But about cultivating mental clarity, inner strength, and resilience. Who would have thought? If you have the knowledge and tools, home practice can be as powerful. If not more. Because it’s personal, adaptable, and time-efficient.

Why I Do What I Do

That’s why I created my programs. To guide people toward positive change. Mentally, physically, and emotionally. I meet you where you are. Helping you listen to your body and build sustainable routines that fits into your life. That it's mind training.That was the moment I understood that yoga is about far more than movement. It is a spiritual practice. Postures are a very small part of it. Unfortunately it's marketed in the west to make most feel it's necessary.It wasn’t the sweat or the calorie burn that did it. It was the mental clarity and inner strength I built on the mat. Meditation, or gentle movements. In fact, home practice can offer the same benefits. If not more. Because it’s personal, adaptable, and time-efficient.rough my programs I offer he opportunity for transformation through yoga. Mentally, physically, and emotionally. I believe in meeting you where you are. Teaching you how to listen to your body. And creating sustainable routines that truly fit into your life.
