Claudette has been practicing yoga since 1999, and is a graduate of the
YogaWorks 200-hr Teacher Training Program. Her training has greatly enriched
her own practice; deepening her understanding of yoga asana, its philosophy
and lineage; and has provided her with the ability to create a safe, joyful
and inviting space in which to guide students toward a rich experience that
illuminates yoga's many benefits.

She has an extensive background in athletics, dance and theatre, and was drawn to yoga because of its integrative approach; emphasizing the connection between body, mind and breath; key components of her earlier pursuits.

Her teaching style draws from a love of being both physically active and mindfully engaged in the learning process. She has a genuine passion for introducing new students to yoga and finds joy in encouraging her students to open themselves to the vitality of life. Her classes focus on alignment, philosophy, self-study,
cultivating awareness and exploring freedom, both on a physical and mental
level. Claudette is grateful to her many wonderful teachers and mentors,
especially to her YogaWorks instructors, and The Yoga Tree colleagues for all of
their support and encouragement.

Come play, laugh and explore as you cultivate a beneficial practice that will last a lifetime.
