Your Teacher
Growing up in the West Indies, Vonetta became acutely aware of the natural and joyful ways people healed themselves and each other through touch, dance, storytelling, simple local food, and a slow soul bolstering approach to life. This initial grounded upbringing was enhanced by the study of Social Anthropology at the London School of Economics, with a particular interest in shamanistic healing.
Subsequent study of Community and Youth Work at Goldsmiths and several years working with homeless people, those with mental health difficulties, unemployed and vulnerable young people further fuelled her compassion for human life and the desire to assist in a more pragmatic and direct approach. This led Vonetta to the study of yoga, acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine, mycology, Naturopathy and Osteopathic medicine.
