Yoga ✺ Breathwork ✺ Cacao ✺ Love ✺ Freedom People come into your life at the right time and you often find yourself in the right place (even if it seems random) - there are no mistakes in the universe and there is a reason why you are reading this page right now. If you want to know who I am professionally the answer would be yoga teacher, breathwork facilitator, author and retreat organiser. But if you want to know who I am beneath those titles, the answer would be:

I am a human being, on a spirtual journey - and so are YOU! Depression, severe anxiety, self harming, self sabotage, wanting to end my life... I was 18 years old and totally lost. This is when yoga entered my life and over the next 10 years I have been building myself up. One day at a time, I kept choosing to fight for my life, I looked for light over dark and I'm so grateful that I am still here. Today I teach yoga and breathwork classes, online and in person and organise and run international retreats all over the world. My role is to gently remind you that you are the creator of your life. At any given moment you can rewrite the story, let go of your limited beliefs and choose to let your inner light shine! I look forward to seeing you in class or on a retreat. Much love to you and thank you for being here.

Maybe your partner isn't interested. Maybe your friends want a five star pool holiday and you want something that actually means something. Maybe you're single and tired of waiting for the right person to come along before you let yourself live. Maybe you've never travelled alone in your life and the thought of it terrifies you.

I know this fear intimately.

I've been travelling solo since I was 20. A few small trips around Europe first, testing the water. Then at 23, I got on a flight to India by myself to do my first yoga teacher training. I didn't know a single person there. I had a dream and a pull I couldn't ignore, and nobody wanted to come with me, so I went alone. I was terrified.

I had the time of my life. People I met on that trip are still in my life today. It remains one of the most profound experiences I've ever had, and it ultimately changed the course of my life.

Freedom is on the other side of fear. Dreams come true when you live outside your comfort zone. Magic exists in the unknown you haven't yet experienced and could not have predicted.

So here's what I want you to know if solo is the only way you'll ever get to book this trip.

You will never actually be alone. I'm there the whole way through.

Strangers become friends. Not the kind you exchange a polite goodbye with at the airport, the kind who are still in your group chat a year later, the kind you plan your next trip with. Over 30% of the people who join me have been before, and they come back because they found a way to travel that actually fills them up, one that leaves them nourished, restored, changed from the inside out.

You don't need someone to say yes with you. You just need to say yes.

Come as you are. Come alone. You won't leave that way.

When was the last time you stopped chasing? 🌊

The whale shark is the largest fish in the sea, yet it never rushes. It moves slowly and steadily to where the water is rich, and trusts that what it needs will come.

I think about that a lot... how much of our year we spend pushing, striving, running after the next thing. And how much could shift if we simply slowed down and stayed open.

The whale sharks have so much wisdom to share with us. This December, on Mafia Island, we are going to learn from them 🐋

A week of respectful in-water encounters, daily yoga and breathwork, cacao and baobab ceremonies, and a beachfront lodge by the sea.

Two years ago I couldn't even equalise properly.

I remember sitting on that first freediving course thinking maybe this wasn't for me... my ears wouldn't cooperate, I felt clumsy in the water, nothing like the calm I'd built through years of yoga. Then on the last day, something clicked. 13 metres down, and for the first time I understood what everyone meant when they said freediving isn't about strength, it's about letting go.

I moved to Egypt for four months after that just to keep training. And now this is the retreat I get to share with you.

Our first Freediving Dolphin & Yoga Retreat sold out in under three months... so we're doing it again. 18-25 September 2027, back on the water at Sataya.

Seven days living alongside wild spinner dolphins, learning to freedive from Immy and Joe, daily yoga on deck as the sun comes up, and the kind of stillness you don't find on land. Beginners welcome, always. You don't need to be strong in the water. You just need to be willing to trust it🐬

I have only swum with whale sharks once... and I have never forgotten it 🐋

I remember slipping into the water, my heart racing, not knowing what to expect. And then this huge, spotted being appeared out of the blue, moving so slowly, so calmly, as if time didn't exist.

In that moment everything in my head went quiet. In moments like this you become so present, and nothing else matters but the incredible presence beside you.

That feeling is exactly why I am going back, and why I want to share it with you.

This December we gather on Mafia Island, Tanzania, where the whale sharks live all year round, for a week of swimming, yoga, breathwork and ceremony.

📍 Mafia Island, Tanzania
📅 4–11 December 2026

Swipe to spend a day with us on Mafia Island 🐋

Here the whale sharks live all year round, and in December they come right in close to the shoreline. They never rush, they never chase. They simply flow to where the water is rich and stay open to what comes. I truly believe they have wisdom to share with us.

As the sun goes down, we come together for breathwork, a heart-opening cacao ceremony, and the grounding Baobab Ceremony, drinking from the Tree of Life of East Africa, a bridge between land and sea 🌅

Weeks like this can and do LITERALLY change your life. I have felt it in my own heart, and I have watched it happen for so many souls in the water with me.

✨ The last few spaces are now open ✨

If you have been feeling the call of the whale sharks and Africa, you my dear, this is your sign. I would love to have you with us.

Freediving is often misunderstood. It is not about pushing limits or holding your breath until it hurts. It is about learning to be calm, trusting your body to do what it is naturally capable of, and letting go of the tension that holds us back.

The week is focused on building the foundations. It is not a formal qualification, so there is no pressure to achieve. Across a series of introduction workshops you will learn:

How to breathe properly for breath holds
Freediving safety, rescue basics and how to buddy properly
Equalisation technique and how to keep working on it
How to duck-dive efficiently so getting below the surface stops being a struggle
How to stay calm and regulated in and under the water
How to approach wildlife ethically and read a dolphin's behaviour
What freediving actually feels like when everything clicks
And around all of that: sunrise yoga on the top deck. Breathwork and pranayama workshops. Meditation as the stars come out. And the dolphins, twice a day, every day.

On day one you will lower yourself carefully off the back of the boat. By day seven you will be jumping off it. I promise you, you will NEVER have felt more at home in the water than you do after this week.

New dates Added!
18-25th September 2027!

Come and find out what your body already knows how to do. Remember you don't need experience, you just need to be curious and open to learn.

Do you want to swim side by side with marine animals and feel comfortable diving beneath the surface?

I KNOW THE FEELING!

Two years ago I could barely equalise. My ears wouldn't cooperate, I felt clumsy in the water, nothing like the stillness I'd built through years of yoga. Then on the last day of my first freediving course, something clicked. 13 metres down, and I finally understood what "letting go" actually feels like in your body, not just your mind.

I'm so excited to share this retreat with you! And no, it's not the first time. Last time we sold out in under 3 months! SO we decided to do this again, because clearly there are SO MANY of you who are water babies and dream of connecting to the part of you that feels most free, most like yourself, in the water!

I invite you to join me and Immy and Joe from in Sataya, Egypt. This is one of the only places in the world where wild spinner dolphins live year round.

Here's what a week with us and the dolphins looks like:

🐬 Swimming alongside wild dolphins, more than once a day, on their terms
🤿 Freediving taught from the ground up by AIDA-certified instructors Immy and Joe, in small groups so you're actually coached
🧘 Yoga on deck as the sun comes up over the reef
🫧 Breathwork, meditation and ceremony with me
⛵ Seven nights, eight days all inclusive on a liveaboard anchored in the middle of the reef
🍽️ All meals, snacks and drinks included
🚐 Return transfers from Hurghada or Marsa Alam

18-25 September 2027. Beginners always welcome.

Book before 1st December and save €200 with early bird pricing.

If this is calling you... comment DOLPHIN or send me a DM and let's get you on board. 🐬
