Clare Yoga Pilates is a vibrant and welcoming yoga studio and village hall located in Northwich, New Zealand. Founded by Clare Curtis, a highly experienced instructor with over 30 years of experience in the health, well-being, and fitness industry, the studio offers a modern approach to yoga and pilates for people of all ages and abilities.
At Clare Yoga Pilates, the emphasis is on creating a fun and friendly environment where everyone is welcome. The studio provides a warm and inviting space for individuals to come as they are and discover the transformative power of movement and mindfulness. Clare believes that movement is a natural and instinctive part of our being, and through yoga and pilates, we can reconnect with our bodies, calm our minds, and improve our overall well-being.
Clare's classes focus on integrating the mind, body, and breath through mindfulness practise. Each session offers a varied practise that includes relaxation, sitting, standing, lying down, balances, and postural awareness. Participants have the opportunity to engage in moving and still meditation, mindfulness exercises, and breathing techniques that help to restore and enhance function, strength, mobility, and balance.
In addition to the physical benefits, Clare recognises the importance of social connexion and community. Therefore, the studio organises regular social lunches, providing an opportunity for participants to bond and enjoy non-yoga and pilates time together. This social aspect is integral to the overall well-being of individuals and adds an extra dimension to the classes at Clare Yoga Pilates.
To ensure the comfort and convenience of participants, Clare recommends wearing comfortable warm clothes that allow for easy movement. It is also advised to bring a nonslip mat, a blanket, and a water bottle to stay hydrated throughout the session.
Clare understands that finding the right fit in terms of yoga and pilates classes and instructors is crucial. Therefore, she encourages individuals to explore different styles of yoga and teaching until they find a practise that they connect with and feel inspired by. With Clare's wealth of experience and dedication, participants can expect a supportive and nurturing environment that enables them to grow and flourish on their yoga and pilates journey.
