I took Claire’s 50 hour online yin yoga teacher training and Chinese medicine course (Yoga Alliance CEU). Claire’s calm and approachable manner invites you to learn and explore this fascinating course, and the attention to detail and thorough explanations of the concepts made them easy to understand and apply to my teaching. I was so impressed by Claire that I signed up for all her classes!!
