Back to the Mat Challenge
A FREE 5-Day Yoga Challenge to get you moving, motivated and back into a routine which actually sticks.
21st–25th September
This is your gentle nudge to get back into it - without going from zero to full-on.
Over five days, I'll help you reconnect with your body, rebuild a little momentum and remember how much better you feel when you're moving regularly.
By the end of the week, I want you to feel:
STRONGER
Wake up muscles that may have been neglected and start building the strength that matters more than ever in midlife.
MORE MOBILE
Ease out stiffness, move your joints and get your body feeling freer and more comfortable again.
CALMER
Use movement, breath and slower practices to help settle a busy mind and nervous system.
MOTIVATED
Get out of the “I'll start again next week” cycle and rediscover the motivation that comes from actually doing it.
BACK IN THE HABIT
Most importantly, prove to yourself that movement doesn't have to mean an hour-long class. Small, consistent practices really do count.
Five days, a little movement each day and a much-needed reset.
Has your movement routine slipped over the summer?
This isn't a challenge that expects you to suddenly find an extra hour every day.
The practices are short, completely doable and designed to fit around work, family and everything else you're juggling.
Throughout the week, I'll guide you through a mixture of live and recorded practices, combining yoga with functional strength, mobility and nervous-system support.
The aim isn't to push yourself harder.
It's to remind yourself how good it feels to move and show you that a regular practice can fit into a busy life.
You can expect:
Short, realistic practices you can actually fit into your day
Yoga, functional strength and mobility
A mixture of live and on-demand sessions
Practices to help you feel calmer and more grounded too
An optional WhatsApp group for encouragement and accountability
And it's designed for REAL life…
This is for you if you:
✓ You know you feel better when you move regularly but you've fallen out of the habit.
✓ You're feeling stiff, sluggish or a little disconnected from your body and want to get moving again.
✓ You want to feel stronger and more mobile and look after your body as you move through midlife.
✓ You're busy and lengthy workouts or rigid exercise schedules just aren't realistic.
✓ You start with good intentions but struggle to stay consistent when life gets in the way.
✓ You could do with a little motivation and accountability to actually make it happen.
✓ You want movement to help you feel calmer too - not just fitter.
You don't need to be super-fit, flexible or an experienced yogi. You just need to start.
Hi, I’m Claire
I'm a yoga teacher specialising in functional strength, mobility and nervous-system support for women in midlife.
But I haven't always been good at slowing down or making time for myself.
Before teaching yoga, I spent years working in a busy corporate career, juggling work and family life and eventually finding myself close to burnout. Yoga became a huge part of helping me feel like myself again and completely changed the way I think about movement and wellbeing.
Now, in my mid 40s, my own practice has evolved too.
I'm much less interested in achieving the perfect yoga pose and much more interested in staying strong, mobile and capable as I get older - while having the tools to manage stress and feel calmer along the way.
That's what I bring to my teaching today.
My approach combines yoga with functional strength, mobility, breathwork and nervous-system support, with a big emphasis on making it realistic for busy lives.
Because you don't need to exercise for an hour every day or follow the perfect routine to make a difference.
Small, consistent practices really do count.
And Back to the Mat is the perfect place to start.
