Claire is most accomplished as an instructor relating well to her students and passionate about her craft. She communicates regularly by email snd also holds yoga events throughout the year to supplement regular weekly classes. I especially love doing yoga outside under the stars!!
I can highly recommend Claire! 🙏
Pregnancy- Before coming I was concerned the pregnancy class was going to be too "wishy washy" or too gentle for my taste, but I found it to be a decent workout. Claire always starts with a check in, asking about any aches, pains or symptoms and makes suggestions for adaptations to work with your body. We also work on pelvic floor exercises which is really helpful for pregnancy. We also covered breathing exercises. When it came to my labour, I could use some of the positions we learnt to stay active and help ease the discomfort. I also met other women with a similar due date and stayed in touch with one. All sessions ended with a delicious relaxation exercise.
Postnatal- I started coming to this class when my son was 6 weeks old. Claire helps create a very welcoming, non-judgemental space for new parents to venture into with their new babies. I've felt comfortable breastfeeding and changing nappies in the middle of classes. I've gradually got more comfortable about my baby screaming in the class or allowing myself to take a few minutes to relax. Classes involve gently stretching the babies, gently stretching ourselves and using our babies as props/weights as we stretch (and the babies love watching us do strange positions). We also cover pelvic floor exercises. After an hour of yoga, we have herbal tea and a home baked treat, as we chat together for half an hour. I find this class has helped me ease into being out and about with a small baby, bond with my baby and nurture the relationship with my body and all the changes that have happened.
