Claire trained in India under Carol Murphy of Green Lotus Yoga and is a Yoga Alliance UK registered teacher with strong technical training in Iyengar, Ashtanga and Anusara yoga.  She is also a professional contemporary dancer with classical ballet training and has been performing with opera and contemporary dance companies since graduating in 2011.  

She loves to teach Vinyasa classes focussing on breath and graceful flowing movement threads, whilst emphasising strengthening the whole body and maintaining good technique, including a strong core section and toning exercises for a tougher work out.  Exercises taken from Claire's professional dance training, such as ballet barre techniques, can also be included.

She equally enjoys slowing down the practice with a gentler class, using her comprehensive anatomical understanding to instruct solid, safe technique which supports and strengthens the joints through beautiful alignment.

Claire likes to tailor classes to work with a student's needs and goals in order to bring about real change and progression in their practice and, above all, to make them stronger.
