Why did you start yoga
I started yoga at a low point in my life after the unexpected loss of my mother. I needed something to help me pull myself out of the black hole I was sinking into. I had become restless and withdrawn, unable to share my deepest thoughts even with my closest family members. I needed to find something that would give me the strength and presence of mind, body and spirit. I’d always been inquisitive about yoga and began to study and practice at home. Eventually, a friend suggested we sign up for a six week ashtanga class at Yoga Haven in Clapham, which was the opening I needed.
