Art-making is another form of enquiry and another way of practicing and pursuing a state of peace. 

The plants speak both of abundance and loss. Ghostly white images left by printing with dried plants, parched of water and pressed.

The hexagrams are symbols from the I-Ching (book of changes) a 2,000 year old Chinese oracle. The maps and patterns are repetitious guides, like a mantra, another everyday practice which helps untangle knots and find a way through.

Yoga for everyone, everybody, everyday

With yoga practice, imperceptibly, your relationship with yourself, your body and with others becomes more nuanced and kindly.

I offer individual yoga sessions and a series of seasonal group workshops. All of which include simple everyday practices you can bring into regular life.
