The best way to learn a foreign language is to use it in real life, like when you travel or live in a foreign country.
As a native Spanish speaker, I offer you the opportunity to have conversations on all kinds of topics where you can feel comfortable, practise and improve your Spanish.

I can also recommend books and exercises to practise and even correct.

Nutritionist and Living-Well Coach

Hello,

My name is Jay, a Nutritionist and Living-Well Coach in London who is driven by a desire to help people live optimally and purposefully realise their potential.

Background

I have travelled and lived in London and Los Angeles, helping people with demanding lives to achieve what every health conscious individual wants - a fundamentally healthful, harmonious and fulfilling life.

Over the last fifteen years, it has brought me immense joy to share my accumulated knowledge and experience in nutrition and wellness, understanding that every person is unique in what they are going through and, accordingly, I adapt myself to line up with the client’s vision for him/herself.

It was an inborn desire that fuelled me to want to attain self-actualisation initially, and (now) self-transcendence (overcoming the limiting imposter, the ego). It has been a personal journey, which has been ultimately rewarding, reflected in a deeply necessary and satisfying transformation in all areas of my life.

I went from losing enormous amounts of weight (17.5 stones down to 8.7 stones) in my twenties, and took the decisive action to show the proverbial red card to ego in favour of establishing and welcoming peace and balance. It was the greatest act of love for myself, and for others by extension. My spirit changed, and my outlook and zest for life became beautifully heightened, so much so that I no longer wanted to go back to the old way of ego. Everything in my life began falling into place, harmoniously and abundantly.

The hardest is going it alone, thinking no-one can relate. Unless, of course, you find someone who genuinely can. I am here to help.

There is no substitute for personal experience and I cherish every opportunity to share what I know and trust will be of immeasurable benefit to you. The world is transformed through our kind choices to share from the wealth in and from our hearts. I want everyone to live well and optimally. It is the birthright of every individual!

I specialize in coaching adult learners in spoken and written English.

I hold a level 3 Adult Teaching Certificate and as a graduate of the full-time acting course at LAMDA, the use of English and the ability to communicate and understand has always been at the heart of my professional career as an actor for 25 years but also my business career for over 20 years.

I have always been passionate about the need of most individuals to optimize their
employability by their use of language in written and spoken communications. Once they have acquired.fluency of these key areas, they will develop the self-confidence that will get them past their first interview for a job and behavioural flexibility to secure and retain the job if they want it.

For many years, I have taught Voice to professional adults including politicians, marketing and sales executives and designers. This was derived from what I learned at LAMDA where I was taught by some of the best voice teachers in the world.

My class was designed to learn how to be more effective in spoken and written communication in English. How to engage, how to listen, how to understand, how to be dynamic etc... Each class is one hour. Many have told me that what they learned from this class has helped them to develop and grow their self-confidence
especially when applying for jobs.

I have enormous experience in communicating with people at all levels and from different
backgrounds. I strongly believe that communication is the key to employability.

I also have considerable experience of organizing and formatting processes which are
aligned to assessing and training requirements. For over twenty-five years, I have
assessed Parliamentary Candidates for a major political party and for the past twelve
years, I have been organizing and Facilitating them both face-to-face and since the
pandemic online as VADs or Virtual Assessment Days.

The biggest barrier facing any adult learner who is also in employment is trying to balance the conflicting demands of employment with the competing demands of a formal course which has its own timetable. Whether the employment is full-time or part-time, there are always just so many hours in the day. So rest assured, I can be completely flexible to suit your timetable.

Yoga Nidra is a sacred practice of conscious rest, where the body sleeps while awareness remains awake. Rooted in the ancient yogic tradition, this guided journey gently draws attention inward, allowing the nervous system to settle and the mind to enter a deeply receptive state.

The practice begins with breath awareness and body sensing, followed by the setting of a Sankalpa—a heartfelt intention planted in the fertile ground between waking and sleep. Gentle mantra vibrations and guided imagery support the release of physical, mental, and emotional layers, leading toward a sense of wholeness and inner stillness.

In this liminal state, the fluctuations of the mind soften, echoing the yogic understanding that true rest arises not from sleep alone, but from presence. Yoga Nidra nourishes clarity, emotional balance, creativity, and deep renewal.

Suitable for all levels, this practice invites you to rest, realign, and reconnect with your inner wisdom.

Want more clarity, calm, and better relationships — without the spiritual jargon or endless theory?
I’ve spent over 10 years studying Eastern mysticism and tantra. What I’ve kept are the practical tools that actually improve everyday life: how you handle stress, how present you are with people, and how clearly you see your own patterns.
This is not about becoming a monk or adopting a new belief system.
It’s about usable wisdom you can apply the same day.
What we cover (tailored to you):

Simple practices for presence and emotional steadiness
How to reduce reactivity and overthinking
Clearer decision-making and self-awareness
Better energy and connection in relationships
Grounded insights from tantra (without the hype)

Sessions are straightforward, down-to-earth, and focused on real results rather than philosophy.Ideal if you want more inner quiet and outer effectiveness — without the fluff.
