Hi, I'm Clare

Yoga teacher, health coach and soon to be Ayurvedic Health and Lifestyle Consultant. 

I love teaching beginners, gentle flow, yin and chair yoga  and I have a passion for bringing well being into your community.   

I’m also a certified Cosmic Kids Children’s Yoga teacher, working in schools and with children’s charities.

I juggled with bringing up our adopted son, having a stressful full time job, caring for a menagerie of rescued fur babies, losing my Mum to cancer and my husband’s cancer diagnosis. 

Yoga saved me. I return to yoga to release physical stress and knots from my body, and find always that it offers so much more. My spirit, mind and emotions settle.

I trained as a yoga teacher at 54, and it’s my ambition to teach a class on my 86th birthday, just so I can say my second career ran for longer than my first!

I use all of my experiences to teach from a place of understanding, warmth and practical compassion.

And when I’m not practicing yoga?

MY YOGA JOURNEY

The photo shows Clare smiling. She is looking directly at the camera. She is wearing a blue cardigan and a bright pink scarf. Both have bold floral patterns.

I’ve come back to yoga time and again, since being a shy, overweight teen, because it steadies me when life gets hard, and when life isn’t. 

It’s helped through redundancy, parenthood, illness, bereavement and even a very stroppy pony. Yoga taught me to plant my feet, breathe, and make peace with myself.  It’s given me strength, calm and joy. 

I trained as a teacher in 2022 and I’m still learning, not just yoga.   I’m currently immersed in training as an ayurvedic health and lifestyle consultant.  Watch this space!

So here I am! On an incredible journey of learning and discovery.  Just like you.  

My Light

Every body deserves health, wellbeing and a life that feels deeply fulfilling.

My Vision

To share the gentle wisdom of yoga and Ayurveda.

My Values

Clare is in a triangle shape.

Live gently. Love deeply. Laugh together.
