Born in Ireland, Joanie originally trained in theatre design, working mainly with dance companies and doing site-specific work. While travelling in Asia, she started to use her creativity with young people, running classes and workshops in India, Hong Kong and Bosnia as well as the UK. On a visit to India for a yoga holiday, Joanie discovered Ayurveda. It changed her life. The philosophy of positive health and mind, body, spirit balance made so much sense that she quit her job and began her studies.
Joanie holds a BA (Hons) Ayurvedic studies from Thames Valley University and undertook her clinical training in Karnataka, India. She is a qualified Sivananda Yoga Shiromani and also holds a certificate in Integral Yoga from the college of Naturopathy and Yogic Sciences in Karnataka, India. Her aim is to use these tools to promote the importance of balance in life. Ayurveda, yoga and massage and creativity are all the tools you need to bring balance to body, mind and spirit.
Joanie is a member of the Ayurvedic Practitioners Association.
