MEET CLAIRE

Yang + Yin Yoga

Apart from being a yoga teacher, Claire is also a Kinesiologist with an absolute love for all things energy. The TCM aspects of Kinesiology weave beautifully with Vedic philosophy, providing a deep understanding that we are way more than the physical shells of our bodies.

Since her teens she has studied crystal healing, auro soma, energy healing, tarot, aura reading, EFT, flower essences, and feng shui. In her twenties she became a Reiki Master with her lineage back to Dr. Mikao Usui. At the same time she was also an aerobics instructor.

Claire found yoga when she was told she needed a knee replacement and hasn’t looked back… for her it is the perfect combination of movement and breath-work with an energetic and spiritual essence. Her classes highlight awareness of breath whilst maintaining a balance between strength and ease. She incorporates attention to the internal self, the mind-body experience, the signals from your body and also loves to bring in some philosophy/TCM to tie it all together into a truly holistic practice.

She is passionate about her family and friends, good food and wine, animals and nature, acts of kindness and an appreciation of all the simple things in life. She tries to live in gratitude every day.

“Yoga has been transformational in my own life and my aim is to empower my students to understand that it is a practice for every body and can meet each person exactly where they are on a particular day.”
