🇬🇧 Originally from London, I was raised by disciples of the Indian Guru Sri Chinmoy which from a young age gave me a thirst for spirituality without any dogma. Playful, passionate and vastly experienced, I am an eternal student who is constantly seeking to grow as a light worker. This has led me to study with some of the most influential teachers of our times and base myself in India for 3 years to extend my understanding of the art of yoga. Having trained in Ashtanga, Hatha, Vinyasa, Bikram and Yoga Nidra, I incorporate 20 years within the yoga world by making creative, intuitive, student-focused classes. It's my mission to bring the transformative qualities of yoga to everyone through fun, accessible and progressive practices that everyone, regardless of how long they have been doing yoga or how flexible or strong they are, can benefit from. Yoga gives us all space and time to cultivate more well being in our busy lives. This is why I love offering my devotion and expertise of this ancient art and cannot wait to share them with you.

🇫🇷 Originaire de Londres, Jo a été élevée par des disciples du guru indien Sri Chinmoy qui lui a donné dès son plus jeune âge une soif de spiritualité sans aucun dogme. Joueuse, passionnée et très expérimentée, Jo est une éternelle étudiante qui cherche constamment à grandir en tant que travailleuse de la lumière. Cela l'a amenée à étudier avec certains des professeurs les plus influents de notre époque et à se baser en Inde pendant 3 ans pour approfondir sa compréhension de l'art du yoga. Formée à l'Ashtanga, au Hatha, au Vinyasa, au Bikram et au Yoga Nidra, Jo intègre ses 20 années dans le monde du yoga en proposant des cours créatifs, intuitifs et axés sur l'étudiant. C'est sa mission dans la vie d'apporter les qualités transformatrices du yoga à ses élèves grâce à des pratiques amusantes, accessibles et progressives dont tout le monde, peu importe depuis combien de temps ils pratiquent le yoga ou à quel point ils sont flexibles ou forts, peuvent bénéficier. Le yoga nous donne à tous de l'espace et du temps pour cultiver plus de bien-être dans nos vies bien remplies. C'est pourquoi Jo aime offrir sa dévotion et son expertise de cet art ancien et a hâte de les partager avec vous.

I’ll be honest… as a yoga teacher, I don’t always follow my own advice.
This month I pushed way too hard—teaching 20 + classes a week, running a studio, retreats, being a single parent… and then being told I had to move out of my home by Christmas… packing mode went Boom 💥

My body went straight into fight mode and I just kept going.
I didn’t slow down.
I didn’t listen.

And eventually my back made the choice for me.
Two bulging discs later… I finally got the message the universe had been whispering: stop. listen. soften.

People rarely talk about getting injured within the wellness world—because we’re often busy promoting the light. But the truth is, this has cracked me open in real, uncomfortable, but necessary ways.

I’m still teaching, but on a limited schedule, and I’m cueing everything without demos.
It’s given me the chance to really WATCH my students—to support them, protect them, and guide them so they don’t move in ways that could harm their own bodies. It’s deepening my teaching more than I ever expected.

This experience is forcing me to look at how I live, how I push, and how I care for myself.
It’s giving me a whole new level of compassion for anyone who walks into class with pain in their body.

So now… I’m listening.
Really listening.

My body asked for rest.
This time, I’m giving it. 💛🧘‍♀️✨

Rocket Beats Teacher Training — completed! 🚀✨

What an incredible 5 days filled with laughter, sweat, learning, and connection with some of the most genuine, hardworking yogis out there. Huge thank you to for such an inspiring experience!

I was definitely pushed beyond my comfort zone physically, and the yoga geek in me absolutely loved diving deep into the anatomy and mechanics of the practice.

I’m still buzzing from it all and can’t wait to bring these new skills, insights, and drills back to Somerset. Let’s see what you make of them! 💪🧘‍♀️

Whatta 8 days ! This was fun, hard and emotional 😂..: at least for me 🤣🤣🤣 But I kinda like these challenges for that… to see myself through the lense of this peculiar little portal.

Today I went for a backbend because yoga is a devotional practice for me, … and I had wanted to do an but already did it another day 🤣.

Thank you everyone 💛💚🧡❤️🩵🩷

Handstands are so cool but it’s pincha that captured my heart. The only issue really for me today was this going to be today or tomorrow’s asana. So I couldn’t wait, and it is 🧡🩵💜💚🩷

There is something about backbending in the this inversion that just feels so nice.

I really didn’t want to practice today but I really did enjoy this. Whilst I was doing it I had the idea to take a picture for tomorrow and cheat as I know people do that… a quick change of the hair and outfit and no one would know.
Accept me.
However strong the desire for short cuts can be there is no real short cut as the whole point of this challenge for me is that accountability. And if I was faking it I would rather opt out completely.
Strangly, this challenge has been a challenge 😂🤣😂🤣 so feeling rather happy with all I’m learning from it.

Feeling so stiff as cold 🥥 after 3 hours of ecstatic dancing yesterday, but my goodness it was worth it!

Went forwards today as my back body was asking for some stretching after all the activation it’s been getting for this challenge 💫
What would you call this? It’s kinda a twisted chair in my mind 🤪

In a world that is so busy, there is nothing quite like a slow soothing Sunday filled with self care.

These supported variants were perfect for my body and me today.

Supta Vajranasa is like a VIP lounge for your diaphragm 🎉💨 — it gives it all the room to party (aka expand + contract like a pro). It’s a long time fav.
Perfect for anyone wanting to level up their deep belly breathing and actually feel their breath from the inside out. Your lungs will thank you 😉🫁✨

I couldn’t pick between and so went for both 👩‍🎤

M is for Mummy power 💫

Honestly, if I didn’t bend I would break 🤪.
Whats your fav? 1, 2 or 3?
So here I am showing up in the only way I know how when life gets intense. Yoga challenges force me to get on my mat and make space for my practice. Very often when the juggle gets too much it’s the first thing to drop.
So I am powering up with this little challenge:

2 Kneeling Bend
3 Seated Bend
4 Reclined Bend
5 Prone Bend
6 Balancing Bend
7 Inverted Bend
