about
greta
I started practising yoga in 2005 for a very ordinary reason: I wanted to lose weight.
At the time, I was working in advertising — a fast-paced environment that could be demanding, frustrating and, at times, pretty overwhelming. What surprised me about that first yoga class wasn't what my body could or couldn't do. I walked out feeling like there was simply more space in my head. Nothing around me had changed, but somehow, everything felt a little less messed up.
That feeling stayed with me.
Twenty-one years later, my practice looks very different. So does my reason for doing it.
I've become increasingly curious about how our bodies actually move — and how easily we can go through movement without really noticing what we're doing. That curiosity has taken me from traditional yoga training into anatomy, yoga therapy, myofascial release, accessible yoga and many other approaches to movement.
how I teach
I like detail. I break movements down, explain what we're doing and offer different ways of approaching the same pose.
That doesn't necessarily mean making things easier.
Sometimes the right choice is to back off. Sometimes it's to stay where you are. And sometimes you're ready to challenge yourself a little more. I teach everything from inversions and dynamic practices to supported, restorative work — and I don't see those as opposites.
What connects them is awareness: knowing what you're doing, noticing how your body and breath respond, and making a conscious choice from there.
Your practice doesn't need to look like anyone else's — nor does it need to look like your own practice yesterday. Bodies change, circumstances change, and practice evolves with them. The aim isn't to compare, judge, or follow every cue perfectly. It's to pay attention, understand what's happening, and make the practice your own.
experience
I have been practising yoga since 2005 and teaching since 2010, working with people across a wide range of ages, abilities and experience.
My teaching experience ranges from classes of 80+ people to one-to-one sessions, and I previously worked as a Yoga Therapist in osteopathic and physiotherapy clinics in Hong Kong.
I've taught complete beginners through to yoga teachers, and worked with people navigating injury, surgery and physical limitations.
That range continues to shape the way I teach: there isn't one version of a pose — or of yoga — that needs to work for everybody.

My training spans Yoga Therapy, Functional Anatomy, Hatha and Vinyasa Yoga, Yin and Yoga Nidra, Accessible Yoga, Myofascial Release, Traditional Chinese Medicine-informed Yoga, Pre- & Post-natal Yoga and Yoga Bou.
