Clare Brooksbank has been teaching Ashtanga yoga since 1999 after completing a teacher training course with the late Derek Ireland.
Clare provides several types of tuition to suit individual needs. She holds regular classes at the Deda Centre, as well as private classes held either at her residence or that of the student.
Regular Adult Yoga Classes
Ashtanga yoga uses familiar Hatha yoga asanas (postures) but in a set sequence that has been devised to help the body progressively open itself. This is combined with a specific breathing technique called Ujjayi breathing.
Once the student has learnt the sequence the teacher can
concentrate on refining it while the student, listening to the sound of their breath flows through the dance-like movements in a form of moving meditation.
Classes at DEDA, Chapel Street, Derby

Private 1 to 1 Yoga Tuition
