I joined Blush in 2015 after I saw an actress performing silks online.

After finding Blush and attending my first silks class, I’ve never looked back!

Silks is my happy place, it allows me to be creative with movement as well as build my strength.

I love teaching students the sport I fell in love with. It’s a joy to see their development throughout their journey. I like to focus on core foundations and ensure conditioning is complete at the start of every class to build our strength for the more challenging moves to come. I do love seeing students succeeding in combinations I’ve put together❤️

I’ve danced throughout my childhood up until I started working when I was 18. I use to perform ballet, tap, modern, street and commercial dance. I also taught younger children throughout my teenager years. I am now a fitness fanatic. Over the past 10 years I’ve walked many mountains and completed lots of challenges. I do calisthenics and weights training on a regular basis. More recently, I’ve started competing in crossfit competition with my personal trainers group.

I love a holiday, I love to hear all about people’s holiday’s. Any travel recommendations I’m all ears, I’m always looking for the next country to visit.

I started Blush on my own back in 2015 and everyone welcomed me with open arms. I’ve met true friends for life through Blush and every teacher that has taught me has help craft the person I am today. Thank you all!
