Claire Heywood
SunYoga Principal

Claire has been practising yoga over a 20 year period, teaching yoga for over 10 years and practising shiatsu massage since 2004.

She believes that in the hectic pace of modern life it is important to provide a friendly place for people to relax and connect with themselves in a kind, nourishing and enjoyable way. Her wish is to help people increase personal health and happiness and be the best that they possibly can through the art of SunYoga.

Claire is appreciated by her students for her diverse, creative and playful approach. Her work is informed by her rich history of bodywork as a dancer and theatre performer and her ongoing study of yoga and shiatsu.


Belinda Blackburn
Level 1, Pre-Natal & Children's Yoga


Belinda began her yoga journey as a student of Claire's in 2001.
 
She completed her Advanced Diploma of Yoga Teaching in 2008, is an
Accredited Infant Massage Instructor and also holds a Cert IV in
Breastfeeding Education.

As a mother of three Belinda has found yoga very beneficial during
pregnancy and with the ongoing challenges of motherhood. She enjoys sharing yoga with families through her pre-natal classes, children's classes and infant massage workshops( which include yoga for parents). By practicing yoga at times of great growth and change in our lives we are able to slow down, tune in and more fully experience the journey we are on.

Belinda's nurturing style allows students to experience yoga in a safe
and calming environment. She has a holistic approach to yoga and her
classes will generally include asana (posturework). pranayama
(breathwork), meditation and relaxation.

Belinda believes that yoga allows us to grow in physical strength and
flexibility as well as enhancing emotional and spiritual wellbeing.

With regular practice we can achieve our greatest potential in all aspects of life, both on and off the yoga mat.
