She has been working on bodies for just as long and is certified in Swedish massage, acupressure, skin therapy, aromatherapy + master-level Reiki, which can come out during hands-on assists and savasana.

Born in Toronto, she left Ontario at 19 to travel the world for 4 years. Annik lived in Vancouver for a decade to build a somewhat-solid biz foundation for her storefront CoalitionSkin, til 2017 when she decided it was time to permanently leave Canada to move towards the warm life she had been working towards creating.
She has a passion for serial-learning + then sharing what she has learned + embodied. She shares tools that help her on her journey such as core-awareness, pranayama, bandhas, lunar cycle work, yoga philosophy. With her extensive experience teaching students often comment on her cueing being the best they've ever heard and have been able to enter poses + variations w more ease than ever before.
