In my previous life living in the fast-paced London corporate I used my love of dancing, yoga and music to let off steam whenever I could. A diagnosis of breast cancer on my 40th birthday changed my life dramatically, but my love for movement never died. It was during my recovery that I followed a life long dream to study Dance Movement Pyschotherapy as well as yoga teacher training to strengthen my previous children’s yoga, dance and meditation experience. Five years on and now living in Ibiza I wholeheartedly believe that all my training has had a big part to play in my recovery and working with my own inner child has made me realise how important it is to a provide safe, fun environment where children can learn, express themselves and find joy in movement. It was this that led me to create the Supercala concept combining yoga, dance, mindfulness, massage and other fun things to lighten up everyone’s inner child.

I am a concert cellist and I stumbled across the Method later on in my performing career. Initially I was amazed at the transformational and liberating effect a few Functional Integration lessons had on my relationship to my instrument and performance. With longer experience of the Method, through learning how to learn, I am constantly delighted by my ability to tackle new challenges and sense my expanding potential. I am frequently surprised by unintended benefits such as faster reactions and my life has opened up at a time when it might easily have slowed down. I offer classes, workshops and one-to-one lessons from West Hertfordshire while continuing to give concerts at the highest level and cello lessons. I also run a world class concert series, Tring Chamber Music.

My original career path originated when I studied A level computer science, leading me into the world of software programming and IT and culminated in my graduating from the OU with a BSc(Hons) and becoming a Database Administrator. It was during this period of my life that I began to look for something different. In 1996 I re-started my career after several years as a full-time mother and wanted to discover who I am. This was the beginning of my interest in crystals and holistic healing. My very first workshop was a Crystal Massage weekend with Denise Wichello Brown and that became the launchpad for my desire to become a complementary therapist. I began with a VTCT Diploma in Anatomy & Physiology, followed by a number of different crystal therapy courses ranging from correspondence course to formal classroom (VTCT) to a 2-year course culimnating in an ACHO accredited ICGT Diploma. Alongside this I began my Reiki path, initially for personal reasons, and achieved Reiki Master Teacher in 2005. I worked part-time in the world of IT as a qualified tutor, having gained my PGCE, for nearly 9 years before taking voluntary redundancy, during which time I continued to develop my skills as a therapist and further my knowledge in complementary therapies. In 2012 I added VTCT Level 3 Diploma in Reflexology Techniques to my skillset and intend to follow other avenues which this has opened up for me, possibly combining crystals in the reflexology treatment. In recent years I have completed studying for a Level 3 Diploma in Holistic Massage, Thai Foot Massage, On-Site Massage & Acupressure & Stress Management Practitioner Courses, ITEC L3 Aromatherapy and Hot Stones Reflexology. I also finally took all the nudges and hints from the Universe to teach! Currently delivering Reiki Level 1, 2 and 3 MP evening classes, Meditation for Beginners, accredited courses in Crystal Therapy and one-day workshops on topics such as Meditation with Mandalas and Introduction to Crystals etc. Website: Dreamstone Holistics Facebook: @Dreamstoneholistics Pinterest: Dreamstone Holistics – Therapies & Training

It is my purpose in life to encourage and support people who have a desire to improve their self-worth, and confidence and therefore make positive changes in life.
