Entering my 4th & final year of my yoga teacher training with the IYA

This is the only four-year yoga teacher training in Ireland and the only one recognised by the European Union of Yoga European Union of Yoga . Before beginning this journey, I completed my 200-hour yoga teacher training with Himalaya Yoga Valley in 2021. By the time I graduate, I’ll have completed 747 hours through the IYA course and over 1,000 hours of yoga training when workshops are included.

But for me, it’s never really been about the hours or the qualifications.

The beauty of such an immersive course is having the time to truly live yoga, to explore it, question it, experience it and slowly make it my own before sharing it with my students.

Yoga is so much more than movement and postures. It’s an ancient system for understanding ourselves more deeply, exploring the physical, mental, emotional, energetic and spiritual layers of our being.

The more I learn, the more I realise there is to learn. And that’s what makes this journey so special.

I’m excited to begin this final year with a wonderful group of people who, over the past three years, have become very good friends. ❤️

One more year. Let’s see where it takes me.

Detachment in the Gita means feeling our emotions without letting them decide our actions. Arjuna’s fear, guilt, and heartbreak were so strong they blurred his judgement and froze him in place. Krishna wasn’t asking him to switch off or stop caring, just to step back enough so the emotions didn’t run the whole show. When we detach, we create space, the feelings are still there, but we try to steady ourselves enough to act from clarity rather than panic, pressure or ‘what if’s?’ It’s simply the skill of staying grounded while our emotions move through us, instead of being dragged around by them.

Yoga teaches us emotional regulation, the ability to observe and feel without the over-identification and overwhelm. We learn the message the emotion is trying to convey, we learn to translate the message, thanks the emotion for its information & decide to act or not. Emotions are information & signals, practice allows us the ability to extract this information rather than act from the energy of the emotion.

Mum & Baby Class. Tuesdays 11:15am. Some of the kindest words from the women I've had the privilege to work with. I never take it for granted. Mothers carry so much, often quietly, and being able to hold space for them is one of the greatest joys of my work. I'm grateful for every single person who has trusted me. Their honesty, humour, strength, and tenderness stay with me long after each session ends.

Well, what can I say about this experience? European Union of Yoga Annual Congress 2026 in Zinal, Switzerland.

What a week! Proud to be at a place both mentally & emotionally where I can welcome the experience of unlearning, learning, curiousity & questioning. That I have a body that works, that I get to move every day & grateful that I get to experience the jewels that yoga āsāna gift me.

This was a week that deepened the bonds of friendship, brought joy & giggles (and some epic teasing playing cards). A week of meeting new people, seeing new perspectives. And eyes widening with the calibre of lectures and talks, my ears, eager to drink in all their words.

A week that filled my senses with āsāna practice, Kirtan music, philosophy, conversation, nature - the Alps! First time on a cable car, almond croissants, coffee, meals in & meals out along with impromptu study group sessions!

Thanks to the amazing team at the . The amount of work that happens in the lead-up, background & then the colossal amount of work the week of the Congress itself is very evident. I know I speak on behalf of the rest of my Irish colleagues when I say we are incredibly grateful for all your hard work & are already dreaming of our next trip. 🙏

To the .iya & all my fellow students for being my spiritual home and introducing me to so much 🫶 I would not have had this experience without you!

And finally, to my trip buddies, and thanks for being the heart pump of this trip and being with me for my very first girls holiday! 💕
