“Y Respira is an amazing find. Claudia and her teachers have perfected a balanced practice that connects the mind, body and brain. Through their command of the anatomy, they take you on a journey that explains the impact of each pose on your body and mind, seamlessly engaging your intellect in the process. The cheerful class environment spreads positivity and the serene setting is a fantastic reprise from the hustle and bustle of ones day. I highly recommend this practice for one and all.”

“I recently went to Claudia for Ear Candling, Cranial Sacral Therapy and a Relaxing Massage. Her studio is charming and the energy there made me feel like I was in a mystical garden (not in Ral, NC!). Everything about the experience supported my total relaxation and it was absolutely what I needed. I highly recommend visiting Y Respira and experiencing a yoga class or service with Claudia.”

A lovely place to be. Claudia is kind, patient and wise- she is always learning something new and sharing it with her students and loved ones.

Claudia was amazing. I loved the casual vibe of the class and all the extra effort she put into helping me get the most out of my stretches. I will definitely return! Thank you Claudia!

I had the great fortune to participate in Claudia and Jim’s Mindfulness Yoga and Natural Horsemanship Weekend Workshop in May. I’ve ridden horses since i was a child and had a serious accident about 10 years. Yoga became my new passion. The weekend workshop combined my passions and allowed me to release fears that arose out of my accident. I left with new found confidence as a result of Claudia and Jim’s authentic and hands on approach to yoga and horses. I always felt safe yet challenged and comfortable that the horses comfort and safety was also important. It was a truly beautiful experience. Thank you Claudia for organizing this amazing workshop.

Had my first class with Claudia this morning and it was amazing! I’m a total newbie at yoga and she helped me when she saw I was struggling. I was searching for a more personal yoga studio and that’s exactly what I found. The space is gorgeous and relaxing, I’ll definitely be going back.

I am so over the moon with this practice. The quiet hideaway. The amazing teacher. I am able to do more each class because because of Claudia. She teaches all of you. This is a class that helps you still your mind, bend your body and carry your practice to daily life. I will never go anywhere else. I am a better athlete and a better person because of this practice.
