Clare was one of my first ever meditation teachers. Her gentle approach and deep knowledge of yoga and meditation is something that will stay with me forever. Thank you for starting me on this beautiful path.

I absolutely loved  teacher training with Clare! She’s very knowledgeable. Her tone of voice is so soothing, which makes any meditations even more enjoyable. She’s such a beautiful and kind soul and I am very happy we connected 🙏 I can’t recommend her enough to anyone interested in Pre- and postnatal Yoga as well as Meditation and Yoga Nidra. Thanks Clare ❤️

Julia Gast, Yoga teacher 

It’s true when they say… when the student is ready the teacher will appear, and Clare my meditation teacher showed up🙏
Loved this meditation teacher training with Clare, love her relaxed and gentle flow to her teaching. Plenty of time spent in teaching practice with lots of help and advice from Clare on how to hold a meditation circle. Experienced both in-person and zoom classes which worked really well for me. I have begun putting my teachings into practice especially how to structure a class and have since started my own meditation circle.
If meditation teacher training is calling you I highly recommend Clare.
Gratitude and thanks Clare 🙏                                                                                    Sharon Ennis, healer and meditation teacher
