About instructor claire

Claire Petretti has been practicing, studying, and teaching yoga in Southern California since 1999. Like many fitness enthusiasts, she was initially drawn to yoga for the physical benefits of strength, balance, and flexibility. Once she realized that serenity, peace of mind, and a general sense of happiness were predominant results of the practice, she was hooked. 

A RYT Yoga Alliance certified instructor, Claire teaches a dynamic Vinyasa flow, combined with fun, upbeat music. She utilizes her dance background in her flow sequences so that the movement never stops. Her passion for movement and her love of sharing shine through her teaching. Claire emphasizes establishing and maintaining one’s individual rhythm during class. Breathing and alignment are key. 

Pilates is the other mind-body practice that Claire is passionate about sharing. She trained with Julian Littleford of JL Body Conditioning. She is also a NASM certified personal trainer. Claire incorporates Pilates conditioning into all of her classes and private training sessions.
