Wonderful program, good quality videos, lighting and sound. Many of the courses I have completed on other platforms have terrible video quality. Thank you, I would recommend this course to others if they are wanting to learn how to teach yin yoga and to just get the confidence to move forward in their journey. As well it is a great course for self improvement and just taking the time out to reconnect with your own mind and body.

Katy Ricks Willis

I had an amazing yin yoga online teacher training from Claire. She is not just only a knowledgeable & experienced teacher, but also a caring & compassionate life mentor. As english isn’t my mother language plus this is my first yoga training, at the beginning I was kind of scared of getting understand on all the lessons. However, her consistent encouragement & passionate truly inspiring me. The knowledge I’ve learnt from this training is more than I expected. Now I feel more confident to practice Yin on my own with awareness of what’s for me.

I had the most amazing time learning from Claire in the yin yoga online teacher training. She has a great knowledge of yoga in general & especially in yin yoga. She has a great way to provide her knowledge & to bring the theory into practice. I even learned a lot of things to integrate into my yang hours & personal practice.

After not long completing Yin yoga online teacher training with Claire… words can not express the gratitude I feel. On so many levels. I loved every minute of it. Claire is an incredible instructor, teacher & mentor. I would whole heartily recommend any of Claire’s retreats or training as she has a wealth of knowledge & her energy is so inspiring. She has the ability to transform & bring out the best in oneself. A very special soul indeed.

Ing Spence

I did the Yin YTT with Claire. Claire is a very experienced & competent teacher. I love her authenticity & her positive energy. She provided well structured & clear information during the theory lectures. Claire guided us through different practical classes which were designed in a way that we learned to respect & get to know our own body & mind better. This served as a foundation for our own authentic teaching & a deeper understanding of the Yin Yoga theory. Highly recommended!
