Having trained in both ballet and contemporary, and later Flamenco dance styles, and subsequently performing internationally, her fascination with the transformative and healing nature of movement eventually led her back to her roots and thus she completed her formal yoga teacher qualification in 2017. Since then, Roxanne has enjoyed an international career teaching yoga full time and has completed further trainings in Yin yoga, Mat Pilates, Rebounding and is currently busy with an Advanced Diploma in Holistic Classical yoga practices.
