I started writing this part in the third person and got about two sentences in before the act of talking about myself as if I’m someone else, like a salesman detailing technical specifications, made me want to wretch. That first sentence probably tells you more about me than what is to follow.I am definitely Scottish, and very proud of my nationality but not to the exclusion of all the other wonderful nations of this world. I live in Melbourne, Australia but I’m always wandering, visiting friends, teachers, sacred sites and beautiful beaches across the world, so you might also find me in your neck of the woods at some time. If not, invite me over and I’ll see what I can do.I’d like to say that I’m a Yoga and meditation teacher and bodyworker, but while that is true it seems too limited to describe all the wonderful things that have come my way. In my time I have also been an accountant (my University education) and finance manager, a police officer (including many years as a detective), a photographer, a leader of sacred ceremony and for a time worked for a well known fruit-based technology company. Now it seems that I am a writer too, assuming I can continue to drag myself away from Facebook long enough to write another book or three. I suppose that all I can do is say that right now I teach Yoga and meditation group classes and one-to-ones, all of which is a big disguise for what I love doing best which is talking with other people (usually humans).Over the years I’ve had the pleasure of working in Yoga with a number of wonderful teachers both at a local and an international level, including Richard Freeman, Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, T.K.V. Desikachar, Paul Harvey, Ateeka and my former teacher, Kausthub Desikachar. My main focus in practice these days is in unfolding the wonders of embodied meditation practices under my former teacher, Dr. Reginald Ray of Dharma Ocean Foundation. I tend to spend a relatively long period of time each year in meditation retreat, so please don’t be surprised if you try to get in touch and find I’m gone for a few weeks.I love movement of all forms, especially dance, and have such a wide and varied taste in music. I am a Tantsu practitioner and love promoting this beautiful and healing approach to bodywork whenever I can, usually by randomly insisting that anyone who shows the slightest interest in it shares a session with me. I am such a foodie it is hard to believe, and with my particular specialisation in devouring desserts I am also very glad for a fast metabolism that keeps me in shape. I love walking in nature, one of the many brilliant aspects of living in Scotland that keeps me here.Last but not least, I am always deeply grateful for my students, which now includes you. In the Yoga Sutras of Patañjali the deeper meaning of the very first sutra reminds us that the student comes first, as without students there is no teacher. Thank you all for your interest and commitment.
