Iyengar Yoga Classes with Claudia
Claudia offers two variations of Iyengar yoga, both emphasizing body alignment, precision, and mindful movement:
- General Iyengar Yoga Practice: A dynamic practice focused on correct posture and balance, helping to build strength and flexibility while refining asanas.

- Restorative Iyengar Yoga: A slower, deeply relaxing practice using props such as cushions, straps, and blankets. These classes encourage relaxation, breath awareness, and allow for longer posture holds.
Whether you are a beginner or an experienced practitioner, Claudia’s classes offer a space for exploration, growth, and well-being.
