With a diverse background in pedagogy, HR, and sales management, I have spent years exploring the connection between performance, health, and personal growth. After running my own business in Portugal, I faced the challenges of chronic stress and an autoimmune condition, which led me to retrain in holistic health. I studied psychosomatic therapy, orthomolecular nutrition, yoga, and myofascial release, but the biggest transformation came when I discovered the Oxygen Advantage® and Buteyko breathing methods. These scientifically grounded breathing techniques helped me restore my health, improve my energy, and sharpen my focus. Today, I integrate the Oxygen Advantage® into my coaching, helping clients unlock better performance, mental clarity, and resilience.
I teach both online and face-to-face in Belgium, you can find me at Kiné Lier where I work with a team of physiotherapists and you can regularly find me in the gym coaching breathwork for sports. I love to work with individuals seeking high performance, people dealing with stress, anxiety, or breathing difficulties, as well as women looking to improve their well-being during hormonal transitions. I also work with children, teenagers, and teams in schools or companies who want to enhance focus, creativity, and overall health.

I am also available on Instagram and Facebook for updates, inspiration, and tips about breathing and holistic health.
