Discover your Yoga Experience in Raleigh North Carolina

Claudia C.

Since the year 2000 I have been a Certified Paramedical Aesthetician (Skin Care Specialist) working with Dermatologists and Plastic Surgeons in the Fort Lauderdale area. I found my speciality in Acne and working wtih pre-cancerous lesions. In 2003 I opened up my own private practice and achieved outstanding results with clients. I loved taking care of their skin and seeing their confidence build. The first impression people see is your skin. It is your shell. One of the most important ideas that I learned was that your skin being your largest organ, it is there to assist your body not only in regulating its temperature, but to assist your body in the constant process of detoxification. We can tell so much by one’s skin. At that time I also began to study Herbology and began referring a lot of my clients to Eastern Chinese Medicine Doctors.

Detoxfication….Purification….Clarity

In 2003 I began to practice the art of yoga. As a child I remember my god father practicing different asanas on my native island of puerto rico. I could remember my great aunt wearing a bandana around her head and practicing thai chi on the balcony overlooking the ocean. It was always so enticing to see these beautiful postures and try to understand the philosphy behind them.  You would think they were just breathing and stretching. But there was more….

Yoga Offers Health, Peace, and Happiness for the Body, Mind, and Soul

In Septemeber of 2008, the time arrived for me to take my yoga practice to the next level. I wanted to teach yoga.  After much research and thoughtful consideration I found Elizabeth Hoffman. She is an extraordinary instructor and I am very grateful that we have crossed paths.  It was the right time and the right teacher for me.

Raleigh NC Yoga Testimonials

"When the mind settles on the mountain, it becomes the mountain."

~Thich Nhat Hahn

For some Yoga may be considered a philosophy, a practice, a work out, a way of life or just yoga. We are born into this world with an inhale and we leave with an exhale. Life is a cycle. Everything comes to us in cycles. With yoga, one is able to enjoy these cycles of life with the use of breathe, also known as Prana. Pranayama is the art of practicing your breathe to control the obstacles created by your actions in this beautiful world.

Yoga helps your mental, physical, and spiritual being.

Yoga give your mind a constant clarity by nourishing your physical being with the fresh flow of oxygen throughout your veins, organs, muscles, and mind.

As you inhale your body takes in pure oxygen. On your exhale your body releases toxins and everything negative. This oxygen is carried throughout your body and mind which helps to purify all of your senses. You start to taste, feel, and smell things differently, hear and see more clearly.

Your body becomes alive. You begin to feel more peaceful within yourself. More than anything you will begin to notice they way you view life and the way life views you seems different. Better.

Come and experience the beauty of yoga. Come and discover the peace that has always existed within yourself and this exciting world.

Awaken!

"Claudia, you are so real and authentic and every class is just so "in the moment" and I just LOVE that.. I love the resonance of that"
