Deepening your practice and awareness on and off the mat
Clara always keeps the breath and awareness of the breath central to her yoga classes, tuning deeply to enable each person to respond according to their own ability and experience. In her classes she creates a mood of calm lightness and equally depth where you will feel both held and also challenged in delightfully, fluid practices.
Her morning classes are more flowing and dynamic and the afternoon classes are restorative.
In the restorative classes, the postures are more relaxing, and often we stay in the posture for a longer length of time. We use bolsters and blocks to help support the body in these comfortable postures.
There is a meditation class in the morning and evening each day, and one of the benefits of our retreats is that you can then take these practices home with you.
See top class yoga teacher Clara’s yoga bio at the end of this page.
The Burren Yoga Retreat is located at the foot of the Burren hills nestled amongst the hazel trees.
You are surrounded with a vast choice of special places in the Burren where we go for hill walks, Nature Trail walks, walks by the sea, beautiful beaches and forests to explore.
There are lovely places to swim in the sea or in our nearby lake which heats up during the summer.
‘Outdoors in the Burren’ on all of our retreats.
All our classes, outings and meals are optional, so you are free to join all or some as you please during the weekend.
However over 95% of people relish the freedom of not having to decide or choose what to do each day, and go with the full programme which is a well tried recipe which we have been running and improving on since 1999.
We are famous for our food and so many people have said they would come back time and time again just for the amazing vegetarian food. Our chef will prepare all our vegetarian meals with organic and locally sourced vegetables and the finest ingredients.
