Claire Strauss Yoga Instructor
#73-986 Range Road 
Whitehorse, Yukon Y1A 4V1
(867) 393-4541 synella75@hotmail.com

I am certified with the Moksana Yoga Centre. This certificate is a professional badge, but my actual style comes from my own lifestyle. I support the Fireweed Market, I participate in youth projects and I enjoy out of town visits as a teacher. I am studying early childhood development and I am an independent dancer.
I offer classes that encourage and stimulate self-awareness and self-compassion. I customize my classes for each student’s needs to explore their potential. I use traditional literature, journalling, Gentle Yoga, Ashtanga Yoga, Hatha Yoga principles, knowledge in anatomy, nutritional advice from years of self-teaching and the freedom to have fun in an atmosphere of sound, smell and natural light.

I don't have a polished marketing strategy, but I polish my life daily. I encourage aphorisms such as "you get what you want by not wanting what you don't need". I am vocal about the attitude towards Yoga that has limited people to be self-reflective. Focusing on health can be narrowing when you can't focus on honesty, feelings, trust and goals.

I have taught at the Northland Yoga Studio, but this Fall and Winter I will only be available for private classes as I am working and attending school full-time, and dancing part-time.

I charge $20 an hour.
