Yoga for Claire is beyond the physical asana practice and embraces mental calm and wellbeing. Her classes will help you to find your inner sense of peace as well as strength and flexibility
Claire is one of a handful of Level 3 Iyengar yoga teachers in Northern Ireland and has developed Maitri Studio as a base for Iyengar yoga in Belfast. Claire's training and practice has spanned many years (and continues!) and she brings her extensive experience to all classes. Many people will know that Iyengar yoga training is rigorous and thorough, covering all aspects of traditional yoga. In particular the Iyengar method is known to be helpful for all, whether already active and fit, or suffering from aches, injuries or various health conditions. Read more about Claire on her site, and about Iyengar yoga on the IY(UK) website.
