About me

My story

Welcome! I’m passionate about guiding individuals on their journey of self-discovery and growth through yoga, coaching, and transformative retreats. My path began with overcoming personal challenges, including toxic relationships, stress, and self-doubt. Through a dedicated yoga practice, spiritual counselling, coaching, and meditation, I rediscovered my authentic, resilient, and joyful self.

Over the past 13 years, I’ve been deeply committed to self-awareness and personal development. My journey has been one of patience, acceptance, and love—learning from my own experiences and the clients, coaches, and therapists who have supported me. From an unsettled childhood to a successful yet unfulfilled career, I’ve faced the same struggles many of us encounter. Selling my business was the turning point, leading me to travel through Asia, study yoga and meditation, and reconnect with my true self.
As a Senior Yoga Teacher and specialised Yin Yoga trainer, my teachings are rooted in the healing principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine. I offer yoga classes, workshops, teacher training, and retreats designed to create a grounding and transformative experience.

My coaching programme uniquely blends body-mind awareness, helping clients and yoga students alike to connect deeply with their bodies, recognise emotional cues, and respond with clarity. By fostering calmness, self-reflection, and inner awareness, I aim to empower others to navigate life’s challenges and embrace their authentic selves.

Whether you’re looking to deepen your yoga practice, train as a teacher, or embark on a retreat to recharge and reconnect, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

The most important aspects for me were about truly feeling the practice in my body and becoming aware of the profound therapeutic work we were immersed in.

The combination of practices created an incredibly powerful vessel. The days seemed to build towards, open us up to, and prepare us for the afternoon practice. Working with Helen and Verity together supercharged the energetic work and deepened my understanding both physically and mentally.

The six-day Yin training facilitated by Verity and Helen was more than just training—it was an experiential journey that inspired and invoked change on a cellular level. The space was held with honour and sensitivity, allowing us the opportunity to learn and grow. Thank you for this journey of feeling and growth.

Putting the theory into practice—feeling the postures and understanding the application of the meridian lines and acupuncture points—made the course deeply experiential and truly transformational. Beyond learning, it also felt like a retreat, nourishing for the soul.

The knowledge and passion shared by Helen and Verity were mind-blowing. They work so well together, perfectly complementing each other’s teaching. They held the space for all of us to explore the inner depths of ourselves with such humility and inspiration. Words cannot fully capture the power of the six days we experienced.

The wisdom of these two incredible women was truly inspiring. From the bottom of my heart, thank you both for honouring me with your time, patience, and pure love. You created a safe space where I could shed layers of myself and grow.

This course exceeded all my expectations—in the most wonderful way! Verity and Helen not only delivered an engaging and enriching learning experience in TCM and Yin Yoga but also created a safe and supportive space to delve into the five elements and the profound therapeutic benefits of Yin.

It was an incredibly valuable and unforgettable experience for me on a personal level. I’m excited to incorporate what I’ve learned into my healing work with clients in the future. Thank you both!

I am so grateful for this transformative training. What I expected to be an academic exploration of Yin Yoga and the five Chinese elements became a deeply healing experience.

The structure was perfect—sharing circles, insightful teachings, and practical sessions like meridian tracing, Chi Gong, and Yin practice brought profound connection and growth.

Whether for personal growth or teaching, this training is truly special. Thank you, Helen and Verity.
