Hello, Clare!
Clare completed her 200 hour training in 2014 at Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health and loved it so much that she continued her training there and graduated with her 500 hour certification in 2018. Currently she is working towards her 1000 hour certification at Kripalu and has also earned her certification as a Meditation yoga teacher.
Clare is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and has practiced social work in a variety of settings for over 3 decades. She began to practice yoga in 2007 as a way to cope with stress and to improve her physical health. As a cancer survivor, she wanted to find a practice that would help her heal from the side effects of treatments in addition to preventing recurrence. She believes yoga helps people to obtain physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health.
In addition to teaching yoga Clare loves to practice so you will often find her at Soul Yoga hitting all the classes she can. She loves the diversity of all the teachers and what they uniquely offer as well as the compassionate and friendly environment that Soul Yoga offers.
