About Me

Hi! I’m Kelly.

Through teaching yoga, I help people to slow down, relax and look after their wellbeing.

I’ll let you into a secret though… the old me was not a calm, happy, chilled out yoga teacher! I used to work long hours in jobs I didn’t enjoy, feeling constantly stressed and overwhelmed. I said yes to everything and put too much pressure on myself. Life felt busy, I wasn’t happy and my mental health suffered too. I realised something had to give, so I left my job at the time, took a step back and dived into all things health and wellbeing. 

Little did I know, three things would change my whole way of living.  

First, I found yoga. What started as 30 days of Yoga with Adriene on YouTube (highly recommend!) turned into a regular practice, and I realised how amazing it felt to properly slow down and take care of my mind and body in this way. Yoga has made me stronger, happier and more myself. It’s given me a way to find peace amidst the busyness of life.

As I learnt more about yoga, I started practicing meditation regularly, and found that it gave me an even greater sense of mental clarity. Meditation has taught me how to become present and cultivate a calmer, clearer mindset. I love to share this with others by starting every yoga class with some meditation.

Lastly, I discovered mindfulness. This is perhaps the most valuable practice I’ve learnt, and weaving it into my daily life has had a huge impact on how I feel and experience the world around me. Mindfulness has helped me to appreciate my life more fully and find a balance between doing and being, and has become integral to my style of teaching yoga.

Movement. Meditation. Mindfulness. 

These practices have become the three M’s I live by. They’ve improved my life more than I can say, and I started Space to Balance as a way to share them with others. I hope you’ll join me and find my yoga classes a welcoming space to slow down and relax, nurture your wellbeing and connect back to yourself.

Please reach out anytime, I’d love to hear from you.
