Maya Musings: Finding the Divine in the Mundane
Flowing with Life’s Unexpected Currents “Flow with what is, create from where you are, and watch as the ordinary transforms into something extraordinary” When life presents you with unexpected challenges, do you fight against the current, or do you flow with it? This week’s journey has revealed some profound insights for me about the alchemy […]
The Power of Inner Truth (and following our intuition)
I am writing to you from Leeds (I let out a sigh of relief because my body feels so at home here and it is so nice to be out of the big smoke!) I am up in Leeds for various completions connected to teaching aerial, my beautiful marriage, and an amazing ancestral visit […]
Your circumstances (and other people’s projections) do not dictate the outcome!
You can do whatever you would love if you listen to the whisper and follow your heart over your circumstances and ideas about your possibility! It was super exciting to teach my first aerial intensive this week, with a focus on all things The Rainbow Butterfly at a big London dance conservatoire. I found […]
Musings over the holiday period
Wishing you a wonderful closing for 2024, and I hope you have had a restful holidays? I have been enjoying loved ones in Mauritius (where my husband is from), on our second mini-moon (or maybe big-moon… or half-moon?), as well as spending time with my and his family over Christmas… but most of all recharging […]
Wholeness, Hibernation & Whyness?
I have been thinking “I should write”…”I should post”! But I don’t believe in “Shoulds & Shouldn’ts”, I believe in , “desires” “wants” and “would loves”… so I have been hibernating… and listening for the whisper of inspiration to strike Instead, I have been in a bliss cave of love and rest until out […]

What a great week!
This week, I realised I got what would normally take me 6 months (or longer!) done with some shared accountability! Here is what I learnt about how to get things done: 1: Creating can be frustrating & tense but magic comes from that… 2: Having a space that is not about pressure but offers support […]
Why squeezing the things we love leads to break-ups
Breaking was in the Olympics for the first time and I was there! It was beautiful (and epic!) to witness and show support for breakers (Breakdancers) worldwide who had qualified to battle… I shed a few tears: first at Bgirl Talash using the platform to protest as a refugee who has left Afghanistan, […]
It got worse before it got better… but I am so grateful that…
I am back from Colombia where I was a bridesmaid for a friend’s wedding and am feeling excited about teaching my first Ella Mesma Company aerial silks classes but also full of jet lag! I had all sorts of beautiful adventures (check my instagram for a sample), as well as deeply learning (via experiencing) about personas and […]
Expression counters depression!
This is why my course (Embodied Alchemy) is so important: To transmute the low feeling of depression we need to express ourselves (express our genius), in whatever form is most natural and true in our hearts. In a world that is so full of turmoil, powerlessness and contradictions, it can be easy to feel silenced, […]
