I was born in 1978 in France. I graduated from Poitiers University where I studied English, Chinese and the History of Medicine.

I came to Brighton in September 2000 to complete a three-year training with the European Shiatsu School, Brighton, with Markus Grasser as my main teacher.

After qualifying in October 2003 I followed the equivalent of one-year post-graduate course in Healing-Shiatsu with Sonia Moriceau. I have also studied Classically-Based Shiatsu with Tim Mulvagh, and Plant Spirit Medicine with Elliot Cowan.

I am a registered member of the Shiatsu Society and a senior teacher for the European Shiatsu School, Brighton.
