I am Maike (pronounced Myka), mother, yoga teacher and more recently and somewhat unbelievably, author.
​
I first trained and worked as an actress, but eventually got frustrated with the sporadic nature of the work. I went on to work for Relate as a Couple and Young People’s Counsellor and as an advocacy and support worker for Witness Against Abuse, supporting people who had been abused by health and social care professionals.
​
Training as a yoga teacher felt like a natural progression and an opportunity to integrate my previous fields of work. I am a believer in the healing properties of yoga on a physical and psychological level.
I volunteer for the Reigate Survivors of Bereavement by Suicide (SOBS)
​
I have written a book: The Confession – A Journey to Acceptance, which charts my childhood growing up with a father with mental health issues and is published by Mirror Books
​
It is currently impossible for me to define definitively the services that I offer as I am still growing and creating my offerings, so always ask if you have a request or idea.
