I continued to practice daily, and trained as a yoga teacher, whilst working in the financial world for fifteen years, and throughout my pregnancies. I now have a full-time yoga practice, based in Paris, where I live with my family.
In addition to my love of yoga, I have a passion for writing, dancing, and swimming, and I return to Ireland regularly to swim in the rivers and sea there.
Born in southern Ireland, my roots are deeply intertwined with the beauty and magic of the natural world. The connection between holisitc rituals and our energy levels, positive mood and beauty led me to recognise self care, and the use of of natural cosmetics, as an immensely nurturing and healing daily practice.
It was the desire to link these nourishing yoga practices and holistic skincare that brought me to Face Yoga. Face yoga addresses women’s and men’s needs to counter the impact of daily life with gentle and nurturing practices, carried out with a heightened awareness and consciousness, and ultimately introduce us to a more glowing, youthful and radiant skin.
Today I am delighted to design and teach facial yoga beauty routines and yoga practices for women and men all over the world.
As an experienced Yoga and Face Yoga teacher, supported by years of study in holisitic wellness and personal practice, my work maintains a focus on self-care and development, on a psychological, emotional, and spiritual level.
I share classes, workshops, retreats, and online programmes, as well as offering one-to-one personal consultations to develop programmes tailored to each individual’s needs.

"The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives the passion that she shows."
Audrey Hepburn
“I have been working with Sharon for around 7 years now. I have since left Paris but continue to work with her online weekly. I can not even begin to say how much benefit I get from her Face Yoga & Yoga approaches (which work wonderfully online), Always combining so passionately her knowledge of holistic practices She has a very nurturing, personal, genuine approch which that has become an essential part of my life and wellness and I use these Face Yoga on my own anywhere."

"Sharon is an Irish soul with a Parisian touch, teaching in franglais. She has helped me on so many levels from just basic daily life stresses, recovering in the post-partum period to supporting my pregnancy. Her yoga and facial yoga classes are always a full mind, body experience, she is very intuitive and I always manage to leave a session more renewed and at peace within. Her yoga classes and workshops have given me resources to help me bounce back from whatever comes at me."

"I am the longest student of Sharon’s and discovered yoga thanks to her. When I was younger I practised martial arts competitvely and today I rock climb. My yoga practice is an important part of my week and what I appreciate is she has a way of not just teaching and sharing her knowledge, but really embodying the principles she teaches. It’s about the spirit, it’s about emotions, it’s about healing and integrating the body, spirit, mind and heart using that magical voice with a good measure of Irish humour."

A face yoga class with Sharon is a breath of fresh air! My face looks well-rested afterwards and it always has a healthier glow. I have noticed that the same is true for everyone else who does her online class!

"I count on Sharons enlightened guidance when my tired mind and souls are in need of replenishment. I practiced both Yoga and Face Yoga with her, both are physical but spiritual. She constructs her sessions based on the seasons, and recognises the energies in the group which often makes me think of her work like that of a healer. She supports me throughout my year, season through seasons with much ressourcefulness (that I can use by myself) about health and wellbeing but also tips on skincare and oils and creams and beauty tools."

“I have been practising Yoga du Visage with Sharon for over a year now and time and time again, she has given me a much-needed boost, be it due to a busy schedule, fatigue or travel. Her knowledge of many holisitic practices are very ressoureful bringing an instant pick-me-up with staying power and are easy to adapt to everyday Skin routines. So happy to have found her and cannot recommend her enough.”

“Sharon shares and lives passionately what she preaches. She was recommended to me during an intensely busy time in my life and thanks to her I started to feel more balance coming in immediately, with better sleep and a deep sense of relaxation. Her calm and healing voice and personality is shining bright when she's taking care of you and her words of wisdom are a source of inspiration. I have been delighted to recommend Sharon’s work to many of my friends.”
Vicky Donnelly – Development Education worker

I have had the pleasure of attending Sharon's face yoga workshops online. Initially, I thought the workshop would be beneficial purely to the muscles in my face and while it definitely was that, it was so much more. Sharon creates a tranquil and calm environment so that it's the very best possible self care experience. Not only did my face get a marvellous work out but I learnt how to breathe properly, how to allow the energy to flow and the value of taking time out. She is tuned into the seasons and therefore, what our bodies need at any time of year, thus making the experience even more relevant and more holistic. A glorious, harmonious experience!

Best Possible Self-care Experience
"J’ai rencontré Sharon alors que j’étais en cours de traitement pour un cancer du sein. Depuis notre rencontre je ne suis plus en conflit avec mon nouveau corps et j’ai appris à « let it go »! J’ai trouvé en Sharon une des lumières qui manquait à mon chemin pour avoir le courage de guérir. J’ai appris avec Sharon que le yoga est bien plus qu’une pratique physique c’est une véritable thérapie qui m’aide chaque jour à viser mon mieux être."

Thanks to a private Face Yoga consultation with Sharon I can really see the before and after. My skin is more radiant and glowy like I have a permanent Instagram FILTER on my face! Every morning and night I really enjoy doing my mini face yoga rituels, my TIME OUT for very simple but specific exercises Sharon recommended for me. I work at my desk a lot & experience sleep and stress issues, Sharon also shared yoga related tips to help with all of this. Thank you so much Sharon!

Like a permanent Instagram filter on my face
Suite à ma consultation privée de yoga du visage avec Sharon, j'ai vraiment constaté un avant et un après. Avec un programme personnalisé de 5 minutes le matin et 5 minutes le soir, j'ai rapidement constaté que ma peau devenait plus radieuse et éclatante, comme si j'avais un filtre instagram permanent sur le visage! En plus de ces bénéfices visibles, c'est un vrai plaisir de prendre ce temps pour moi chaque matin et chaque soir. Sharon m'a donné une boîte à outils d'exercices simples et ciblés en fonction de mon mode de vie (stress, longues heures devant un écran) et de mes besoins et aussi des conseils et astuces de postures et de mouvements à faire en journée devant mon écran. Merci beaucoup Sharon!
