WHAT'S HAPPENING NOW?
AS PART OF THE IGNITE PROGRAMME (Cohort 5) I have recently launched SOHAM, a social enterprise dedicated to providing lifelong, practical mental health tools to young people, parents, educators, and youth service providers through yoga. If you'd like to learn more about SOHAM and our programs for teens and educators email me at [email protected]

The 'Teen Yoga' after school program has been expanded to a camp for the upcoming Spring Break in April! Thanks to the generosity of Sally Smith and Jenny West we have a beautiful location in the heart of town and mats for every participant! Spaces are limited and scholarships are available so email [email protected] today to register or apply for a scholarship!
It's a great opportunity for teens to earn co-curricular and community service hours while learning how yoga and mindfulness can help them feel better and thrive throughout the week. Camp will include yoga, art, field trips, writing, public speaking coaching and more.
Often we leave our teens to fend for themselves over mid-term breaks but they deserve and need opportunities to engage in fun activities and meaningful connections in new supportive environments. What's that saying about 'idle hands'? Yoga and mindfulness can help teens to decrease stress and anxiety, improve focus and attention, support mental health, improve physical wellbeing, and even support academic performance.
If you're a parent or teen interested in the upcoming Spring Break camp please email me today!

"If every 8 year old was taught meditation, we would would eliminate violence in one generation." - Dalai Lama
In 2018, I started teaching kids yoga and meditation because these tools have had such a profound impact on my life that my only wish was that I had discovered them as a child. I am committed to equipping present and future generations of children with practical yogic tools that will give them agency over their own health and wellbeing.
Since then I've successfully piloted a Kid's Yoga programme at the Dept. of Youth, Sport and Recreation which has been adopted into the Department's entire After-school Programme, island wide at over 12 public school sites.
5 BENEFITS OF YOGA FOR CHILDREN
1. Strengthens their bones and muscles
2. Enhances focus and concentration
3. Encourages compassion and respect for all beings
4. Helps to find inner peace and calm
5. Builds confidence and courage!

The Peace Within: Prison Yoga Programme
The Peace Within Prison Yoga Programme was the brain child of myself and one of Bermuda's most experienced and renown yoga teachers, Shanell Vaughn. It was launched in January 2018 with the support of the Bermuda's Department of Corrections and the Department of Youth, Sport & Recreation. Since its inception it has served over 6 cohorts of students and has been so well received that the Dept. of Corrections is currently in conversation on how we might expand the programme to the Westgate Correctional Facility. Peace Within currently runs out of the Co-Ed Facility in St. George's, Bermuda. For more information on the programme please send me an email.
