The Practice behind Of This Body
Of This Body grew from a desire for a way of practising that could hold more of what it means to be human.
A practice grounded in the body, but spacious enough to hold feeling, change, uncertainty, pleasure, grief, effort, rest and the wider lives we are living.
Drawing from embodied yoga, somatic practice, meditation and non-dual Tantra, the work is an invitation to pay attention — not only to how we move, but to how we meet ourselves, each other and the world around us.
The Body Behind Of This Body
Hi, I'm Claire.
I've been teaching yoga since 2017, primarily in London and through retreats across the UK and internationally. Over the years my teaching has become increasingly interested in what happens when we move beyond simply learning shapes;
How movement changes when we pay closer attention.
How philosophy becomes useful when it meets real life.
How stillness can sit alongside intensity.
How practice might help us become more available to experience rather than trying to rise above it.
My work is particularly influenced by non-dual Tantra, alongside years of study in yoga, somatic movement and meditation. I tend to teach rather than demonstrate the whole class alongside you, creating space for people to explore rather than copy.
The practice can be strong, spacious, playful, quiet, philosophical and deeply felt.
