My Story

I’ve always looked for deeper meaning in life. Growing up in a small northern town in England, I often felt overwhelmed by strong emotions and looked for ways to escape—through drugs, creativity, or simply disconnecting.

Over time, I found connection through understanding others who were also struggling—people dealing with illness, disability, addiction, and more. Their resilience sparked my curiosity about how we shift our energy and emotions to cope. This led me to explore new ways of being.

In 2012, a sudden loss hit me hard and deepened my search for healing. That path led me to 5Rhythms in 2015. This movement practice helped me reconnect with my body, emotions, and creativity. It offered a safe space to feel, even when those feelings were tough.

Supporting 5Rhythms teacher Neil Pinnock’s classes and diving into workshops helped me explore shadow work, ego, and healing on many levels. In 2018, I trained as a 5Rhythms Spaceholder and began offering inclusive movement spaces—women’s circles, outdoor dances, and seasonal events.

In 2024, I completed the 5Rhythms teacher training. Now, I’m passionate about sharing this powerful practice with more people—especially those who may not usually have access to it.

Your Story

The way we move through life is shaped by many things—how we were raised, where we live, our genetics, and the culture around us. These influences affect our choices, behaviour, and how we see ourselves. But underneath it all, we share something deeply human—something we all have in common.

Our bodies can help us reconnect with that deeper part of ourselves. Beneath the roles we play and the labels we carry is a wild, instinctive, and alive self that often gets lost in the rush of everyday life. Our bodies hold emotions and experiences that we may not even be aware of.

When we dance in a safe, welcoming space, we can tap into that part of us. We begin to notice how energy moves through us—where it flows easily and where it feels stuck. By paying attention to our movement, we can gently let go of what no longer serves us, allowing healing and freedom to unfold.

And what we discover in that space doesn’t stay there. We take it with us—into our relationships, our choices, and the way we live—grounding us in something real and true, beyond what society expects of us.
