Greenshoots yoga

Greenshoots yoga Greenshoots yoga offers yoga and mindfulness classes to children aged 5-18 as well as families. This school specialises in trauma lead education.

I have been a primary school teacher for 19 years, working for 4 years at St Richards Primary School in Longsight and then 8 years at Alderley Edge School for Girls. When my boys were young I left full time teaching trained as a yoga teacher-for children aged 5 plus and Teenagers. I then started Greenshoots Yoga and in the past 7 years I have taught after school clubs, yoga in schools, as well as

staff training in chair yoga and mindfulness. Currently I work as part of a pastoral team at a primary school in Trafford. I have recently completed an online Trauma sensitive course and continue to develop my training in this area. I am affiliated with Independent Yoga Network, in teaching children yoga and mindfulness. Yoga has been a fundamental part of my life for over 19 years now. In a society where expectations are high, from a young age, the yoga mat provides children with a place where they can have fun, express themselves creatively and develop their self-confidence. My aim is to give children the tools of yoga and mindfulness to draw on throughout their lives. For example; in times of emotional stress or academic pressure. Yoga and mindfulness help promote mental and physical resilience, which can be applied to everyday life. Mindfulness is also done throughout the lesson, via breathing exercises, reflection and reciting positive affirmations. Greenshoots yoga offers fun and accessible yoga and mindfulness classes to children aged 5-18. For more details of classes and Family Yoga or Yoga in schools please contact me:

Hi Everyone,

I do hope you’ve all enjoyed some fabulous family time this Summer.

I’m excited to announce..
The next parent and child session will now be in September:
🌱-on Friday 11th, 6-7pm, St Paul's Church hall, Heaton Moor-🌱
£18 🌱( £15 if you book on before 24.08) 🌱

For those of you who are new to my yoga classes.
These family yoga sessions run every 6 weeks and include yoga, mindfulness and regulation techniques.
All parents and children gain tools to help them navigate difficult emotions and stress.
It's also a lovely opportunity to move together.
I believe in the power of music and always play tunes, according to the class, whether it be classical piano for a relaxation or 90’s dance for a warm up.
I look forward to seeing some of you on the mats in September !🌱😊

🌱I also run private 1-1 or family sessions in your home.
This is a bespoke yoga and mindfulness session to help support children and young people (aged 5-18) with their individual needs.

Thank-you for your support with my small business !

I also have some cute Greenshoots Yoga t-shirts and vest tops.
They are £15 and available in most sizes.

I look forward to seeing you soon,

Claire 🌱🧘‍♀️

Life with a puppy is sometimes tiresome and monotonous but then other times joyful and evocative of beautiful new connections.
Most of all their beguiling natures tend to leave you ( the human) with the puppy dog eyes.
It's almost like a microclimate for some kind of recipe for life in general..me thinks?

I was lucky enough to have the most relaxing reiki tonight with Ainsley Ainsley at the serene Di Faulkner | Studio 17
A year ago I couldn't have told you anything about reiki..
All I can say is for me..

It helps facilitate a deep meditative state, quietens 'the chatter' induced my societal pressures, family demands. This provides the perfect space to find your truth, with so much love and light thrown into the mix.

Ainsley has a true gift for providing this beautiful space for some of the most important work you'll ever do.
