She first studied Thai Massage and Yoga in 2000, however, she now offers sessions in abdominal massage, pregnancy massage and craniosacral therapy. Her transition into motherhood brought her to a deeper understanding of herself, of the need for community and alternative education and health for children. She enjoys writing, singing, dancing, being in nature and facilitates women’s gatherings.
