Sources of inspiration
So many people have inspired and influenced me since I set out on this journey of practice, learning and sharing.
I have clients who teach me so much through their own movement journeys. People who overcome setbacks, transform their lives and show me what’s possible with commitment. It’s a privilege to be a part of that.
And I’m inspired by the work of many other movement practitioners, professionals and organisations. Some I’ve been lucky enough to work with, others I’ve followed from a distance and never met, but still learn from and am inspired by. Here are a few of those, you might enjoy following too…
Tony Felix
Tony’s teaching started my movement journey. Later, he encouraged me to become a trainer, and I haven’t looked back. I’m inspired by his creativity with movement, his breadth of knowledge across so many practices and his eye for detail. He models strength in body and attitude. www.tonyfelixtraining.com
Kate Walker
To bring some quiet to life in London, I started yoga. Having tried many venues and teachers I discovered Kate. I love her knowledgeable, thoughtful and considerate style of teaching. Her flows feel at once gentle and strong. www.katewalkeryoga.com

Not a single person, but the MovNat system and approach was transformative to discover. It brings play and creativity into my practice, and encourages me to interact with me environment.
