Claudia was introduced to yoga when she was 16 years old, but it wasn’t until after studying ballet for over two decades, teaching ballet, and enjoying a marketing career for 5 years, that she came back to her mat. After some lower back and knee issues, and a need to calm her active mind after long hours at work, she sought out many different forms of exercise that could help her stay active and give her some stress relief. All paths led her back to yoga.

Falling in love with the tranquility and physicality yoga gave her, Claudia enrolled in the 200-hour Teacher Training with Just Yoga to bring that joy to others. Though she also teaches classes in Los Angeles, her home is Corona and she is thrilled to be teaching here in her community. Claudia loves Star Wars, making people laugh, and creating playlists for her classes… so don’t be too surprised if she puts a little sway in your tree pose.

Claudia has a B.A. in Dance Performance and a B.A. in Communication from Chapman University. She and her wonderful and equally silly husband recently moved to Corona where they are raising two fur babies.
