Moving Dynamics is about connecting body and mind to help you move with more intelligence, awareness and sensitivity. By exploring different movement practices and staying curious about the body, we can think in new ways, develop strength and mobility more strategically, and ultimately find balance.

I haven’t always been a mover. It took me 18 months to decide it might be interesting to see what was on the other side of the room- and get up and walk there. Since then, there’s been no looking back. I moved to the UK from my native France to train as a contemporary dancer at the Northern School of Contemporary Dance. There, I discovered yoga as a way to stay injury-free while developing deep strength. Later, I fell in love with the wider world of yoga: its variety, adaptability, physicality and spirituality. In 2013, I took the full leap, beginning my first yoga teacher training and running with it.

Moving should be fun, enjoyable and unconfined by the limits of any one discipline. I’m a firm believer in cross-training: the more our bodies and minds are informed by different practices, the further our physical boundaries can grow and the more intelligent, subtle, and expressive our movement can become.

I’m sometimes described as “the smiling assassin”, so come to class ready to work hard and have fun. I aim to help students cultivate respect for, and awareness of, body and mind in both dynamic and restorative practices. My classes have a strong physical focus, developing an expressive, strong and flexible body. Use it, or you’ll lose it!

Over time, my love of yoga in all its versatility has become the heart of my teaching. I help students embody their most powerful selves by bringing together work with the physical body, breath and mind. My knowledge of multiple disciplines shapes my classes, with intelligent movement at their centre - and a good dose of self-belief.

Through movement with a playful edge (it doesn’t need to be so serious!), I hope to help you feel more available, alert and alive, so you can enjoy life to the full.

I’m grateful to the wonderful mentors and yoga teachers I’ve trained with, including Allie Hill and Toni Roberts, Joy Kunkanit and Ricardo Martin, Uma Dinsmore-Tuli and Nirlipta Tuli, Sharon Gannon and David Life, Jason Crandell and David Kyle.

I’m honoured to teach anatomy on yoga and Reformer teacher-training courses with yogahaven, the Reformer Room, Power Yoga Company, Kindred, Mission, A Fine Balance and Good Life Yoga School, and to lead and create advanced training courses for yoga teachers.

My passion for the moving body also led me to begin training as an osteopath at University College of Osteopathy in 2017, where I now work as a lecturer. You can see me for osteopathic treatment Pureform Bromley Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. I have also recently completed a Masters in Sports and Exercise Psychology and am a qualified sports massage therapist and STOTT Reformer teacher.
