About the Teacher
Why study with them?
I started my yoga journey to practice yoga at home with my two children.
When I saw the effect it had on them, and the enjoyment it brought, I decided to take the next step and I got certified to teach children's yoga. Then, when covid hit, we needed yoga more than ever. Life as we knew it had changed dramatically and we were into the unknown.
When I saw the effects yoga and mindfulness had on my children, I started to branch out and teach my nieces and nephews online, and then Star Kids Yoga was born.
It has been a great success and it continues to grow. Currently, I teach a range of classes from primary schools to after-school clubs in Malahide, Kinsealy, Swords in Co Dublin, and Drogheda in Co Louth.
I understand how busy life can be with kids, especially when both parents are working full time and you’re trying to juggle the work/life balance.
My life consists of working part-time as a cabin crew for a busy airline. I am attending college five days a week and I teach a minimum of five children’s yoga classes a week, which I absolutely love.
Morzine holds a very special place in my heart. I lived and worked here for many years. I moved home to Dublin in 2011, where I finally settled down.
I and my husband celebrated our wedding in Morzine in 2019 along with our children and our closest family and friends. It was so magical. I have a burning desire to share this beautiful village with as many people as possible, and what better way to do this than through practicing yoga, mindfulness, fun, family bonding, and holistic and wellness treatments.
