Passion for storytelling through movement

My journey
🤸 Gymnast
I started my love for movement as a young gymnast, that identity shaped so much of my early life, the discipline, the drive, the way I saw my body and even my future. The gymnastic foundation has carried me through cheerleading, dance, acro, and aerial arts.Now, I don’t compete anymore, and sometimes it feels like I’ve let go of that version of myself. But truthfully, she’s still here. And now she shows up in new ways.

🎀 Gymnastics → Cheer → Acro → Aerial Hoop → Flexibility Coach
Performer
Whether it’s acro, cheer stunting, or spinning in the aerial hoop, I love exploring how strength, trust, and creativity connect us.
Each discipline becomes a way to tell stories through movement. Whether it’s acro, cheer stunting, or spinning in the aerial hoop, I love exploring how strength, trust, and creativity connect us.

🎪 Professional Work
Physio for Perfomers
Beyond training, I enjoy running flexibility and handstand workshops to help others expand their movement repertoire and feel confidence in their bodies.Professionally, I work as a physiotherapist with dancers, circus artists, musicians, and West End performers in Central London via Flexibility Matters.

I’m currently available for performances, training opportunities, and creative collaborations across acro, aerial, and movement arts.
