Claire’s journey to yoga started 25 years ago. She was in a high paced stressful job and needed to find something to balance her out. As a runner, Claire was used to moving through work and life at a brisk pace. Yoga asks you to do the opposite. The mental work of slowing down, becoming more present was a challenge. But, over time Claire fully embraced the practice. Seventeen years and many yoga classes later, Claire began her teacher training. Since then, she has completed her 500-hour yoga training, as well as training in prenatal/postpartum and yin yoga plus barre and mat Pilates. Claire’s approach is to make yoga as accessible as possible and introduce the philosophy of yoga in a relatable way. In April 2024 Claire became the Wellness in Residence at The Meetinghouse in north Ridgefield.

Kristy has over four years of teaching experience and advanced training in Power Vinyasa and Yin approaches. I am adept in creating meaningful teaching plans that are based on the core principles of the Eight Limbs of Yoga, the philosophy of the Yamas and Niyamas, and the The Path of the Yoga Sutras. Inspired by my Qigong and my Reiki practice, I like to offer unique meditation exercises, breathwork, sound bowl healing and with permission from the students, essential oils and hands-on-assist Savasana into my yoga classes. I am committed to providing clients a balance between strength and flexibility for all levels, as well as encouraging them to find true inner peace and their healthiest self.
