About Lucy
The Gods have meant
That I should dance
And in some mystic hour
I shall move to unheard rhythms
Of the cosmic orchestra of Heaven.
And you will know the language.
— Ruth St Denis
I began my movement journey at a young age, in weekly ballet, tap and modern dance classes in Bedfordshire.
This soon turned into a love of contemporary dance, where I went on to train and gain a BA (hons) in Dance from the University of Lincoln. Here I was first exposed to yoga through my dance tutors, where it was used for strength and flexibility training. Post-university, I worked freelance performing and teaching dance, in and around London and the home counties.
Living in London, I fell into marketing, and got wrapped up in the hustle of city living. Here, my movement practice disappeared, and in a sense, I also lost myself. The challenges of the grind, made me loose sight of my unique and divine gifts, and I started to search for acceptance and love from external and often unhealthy habits.
I came back to yoga, and in reality, it saved me. I was no longer lost, as I rediscovered my body that is my soul’s home. Connecting back into a movement practice I rediscovered this body and spirit and started to value myself again. I completed my yoga teacher training in 2018 and haven’t looked back.
I use the tool of yoga (in its many forms), to keep me focussed, grounded, mindful to find some peace in the everyday. So I can keep coming home to myself, time after time, when things get tough.
Since becoming a mother in 2023, I returned to that feeling of being lost again, as my regular practice disappeared. What followed was overwhelm and anxiety of postpartum life. It was not until I carved out the time to connect to myself again that I felt the overwhelm quieten. I’m on a mission to help mums through movement and mindfulness and provide both physical and emotional support to those who need it.
“Yoga and meditation are tools for observation. Observation which in turn bring us closer to our true selves, and what it means to be.”
