Dear Julie. Thank you, that’s such useful info to anyone considering out classes. Namaste!
I really enjoy Claire’s classes and I love how relaxed I feel after a session. Claire is an amazing teacher and her instructions are clear and concise. I always look forward to attending her classes and I very much recommend them!
Dear Gergana, thank you for very, very warm review. You’ve given some really useful insight as to how yoga can be so uplifting and healing. Thank you doesn’t really adequate! Om shanti.
A yoga class which changed my life for the duration of this wonderful experience. After a long day at work I found myself in Claire’s class as per friends advise. I had done some yoga before and had an idea what to expect. However, I was really not prepared of what was coming next. Claire’s approach and energy swept the whole room and I felt cared for and protected. The lady has a special power – a skill not only in yoga but in opening your senses and allowing you to let go. The yoga was wonderful and made me move in a beautiful way while feeling my whole-body twist and turn so gently. At the end of the session we meditated which allowed me to disconnect completely and few minutes later when the session was over I felt the feeling of confusion of where I was and what was happening around me. She lead me to complete relaxation and allowed me to let go completely. Every class I would walk in and be met by Claire’s wonderful soft energy and kindness which wrapped around me like a soft blanket. My body and spirit enjoyed every moment of the sessions I visited. To everybody considering this experience I would say: allow yourself to feel the magic offered to you.
Dear Sarah, thank you for sharing your considered thoughts. I’m certain yogis around and about who are considering my classes will find them helpful. Namaste.
The classes are beautifully thought out, calming and considerate to all abilities.
After every class I have always left feeling uplifted, open and a deep sense of peace. Would highly recommend Claire’s classes.
Hello and thank you. You have highlighted the planning that goes into a class, it’s lovely to hear that works for you. If you are able to, please drop me a private note as well.
Really enjoy attending Claire’s classes. I like the well thought out class plans which provide a good amount of stretch to encourage me to try new postures. They classes are calming and restorative and help me destress after a long day at work!
Hello Nao, thank you so much for your warms words and endorsement. We love having you in class, you have a lovely energy. Om shanti.
I am very much enjoying the Tuesday evening and Friday morning Hatha Yoga at Fresh Ground. Claire is incredibly warm and welcoming. Her calm positivity really resonates through her class. I feel very much at ease practicing with her. Great for fitness and relaxation.
I experienced a good balance of core, balance and flexibility exercise which was very relaxing. There is also a spiritual nature for those who are interested. Welcoming group, warm room and an excellent teacher. 5/5.
Claire’s classes take you back to a more gentle ‘cool in the kaftan’ time when there was less stress in the world. From the word go, her calm and gentle approach leaves the worries and stresses of the day far behind. Not only do you feel energised but also more relaxed. I have to say after every session I have a good night’s sleep.
Claire’s professional and gentle approach to her yoga classes makes you feel calm and relaxed from the word go. The whole session is controlled and gentle and by the end all the worries of the day have been washed away. Her approach to her classes encapsulates the feeling of stepping back in time to a more ‘cool in the kaftan’ 70s era, when yoga first became popular. As the session progresses, you can feel the hustle and bustle of the modern world being left behind, if only for a short while. And I’ve been sleeping better.
