She moved over to Cyprus in 2019 after living in Germany for many years and set up her Grace Yoga Studio in Oroklini. She said, "I trained as a Yoga teacher in 2018 after practising Yoga myself for well over 20 years, I travelled to India to train so therefore I am experienced in the very traditional methods and styles such as Astanga and Hatha, along with Meditation, Anatomy and Philosophy, I can deliver many types of classes such as Pre Natal and Rehab along with specialities tailored to specific sports for example ‘Yoga for Cyclists or Runners’ either in a group class environment or as a private one to one session. Yoga is my passion and I have been fortunate enough to have worked alongside the British Army community both in Germany and in Cyprus, offering both physical and mental wellbeing to the military personnel and their spouses, through both rehab courses and general classes, I also provide Yoga as part of the training for the Army Triathlon Team when they hold their training camps in Cyprus. With regards to rehab on occasions there had some physical limitations and injuries but with really gentle posture and movements I can help aid their recovery, in as little as 6 weeks I’ve seen amazing progressions where all embraced it and want to continue with their own personal Yoga practise which is amazing. When we moved to Cyprus, I was very keen to find a base for teaching Yoga and my friend offered me studio space, she then relocated back to the UK and I took over the whole studio creating a beautiful space where people can come and take a class in a friendly environment and then relax, have a chill out and a chat with healthy snacks and a tea or coffee. We’ve been visitors Cyprus many times and I fell in love with this island, with grown up children myself and husband didn’t want to go back to the UK from Germany so we came here, and it’s the best decision we’ve ever made”
