Hi, I'm Clare

I’m a fully qualified yoga teacher, Reiki healer and writer. I teach beginners, gentle flow and yin yoga to people who want to stretch their bodies and their minds. I’m also a certified Cosmic Kids Children’s Yoga teacher.

I juggled with bringing up our adopted son, having a stressful full time job, caring for a menagerie of rescued fur babies and losing my Mum to cancer two years ago. Yoga saved my sanity. I returned to yoga online as a way to release physical stress and knots from my body, and found that it offered me so much more, mindfully and emotionally. My spirit started to settle and I found the courage to release the day job when redundancy beckoned at 54. I trained as a yoga teacher and can honestly say that I have never looked back!

And when I’m not practicing yoga?

MY YOGA JOURNEY

Clare is sitting on the floor in listenting. her legs are crossed and Her hands are on one knee. There is dark green leafy wall paper behind her and a wooden door that has been stripped of paint.

I’ve practiced yoga off and on ( to be honest, more off at times!) since I was an overweight, shy teenager.  I’ve found that I’ve come back to yoga time after time because it always helps when life is difficult, just not making sense, or when I just haven’t felt comfortable in my own skin.

It has helped me through career challenges, redundancy, parenthood, illness, bereavement and managing a very stroppy pony!  It has taught me to plant my feet and breathe.  To make peace with myself.  It has brought me strength, calmness and intense joy.

It’s never too late.  My love of yoga came to  a head and at the grand old age of 54 I completed my training to teach yoga.  And here I am!!  At the start of an incredible journey of learning and discovery.  Just like you.  Join me to take those journeys together.
