About Claudia Gutierrez
With Degree in Sport Sciences and Physical Education, Claudia has been working as a Yoga, Fitness Instructor and Physical Education Teacher for almost 40 years.
As a former Gymnast who represented her country (Argentina) in international competitions and coached a few champions herself, Claudia is a rare and skilled mix of knowledge (in anatomy, kinesiology, physiology, developmental and bio mechanical movement, yoga, fitness) combined with compassion and understanding of the limitations we can face in the classes but overall, the amazing opportunities that a Yoga class can offer us to reconnect with ourselves and discover who we really are and how strong and powerful we can be! |
Claudia’s classes are taught in a caring, fun and safe environment with her light hearted argentinean signature flavor!
Her classes are student-centred, adapting each class to the participants' specific needs.
You can expect feel comfortable and welcomed, even if you feel too stiff or too unfit, even if you have never tried before.
She will help you to make peace with yourself and your body and feel ok just being you!
From that starting point of acceptance of your present state of fitness, flexibility and strength you will be able to feel great, happy and relaxed.
You can also be sure that you will be in good hands if you like to advance in your practice!
She truly believe that Yoga is for everybody (not matter your age or size or your level of fitness!) for that reason she teaches
Yoga to adults, teens, Active Retirement, Men, Athletes, Special Needs and different styles
(“I don’t limit myself or my students to only one style of yoga, I love it all!!”) so everybody can do it!
(Regarding her fitness classes she has been told that she may suffers with a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde disorder as she transforms herself from a soft, nice and sweet lady for her yoga classes into a maniac fitness instructor! You need to experience for yourself and discover which Claudia you prefer! Some people choose both! Anyway! You can be sure that fitness classes with Claudia are great workout, fun and amazing music!)
She has worked in Argentina, Italy, Spain and since 2009 here in Ireland, teaching different classes and styles (from coaching international champions, to children in schools, to people all ages and walks of life) in different countries and environments that made her understand the undeniable truth that we are all in this together and we all want the same things: happiness, understanding, peace and love.
For that reason (and maybe because her mum was a Doctor in Philosophy and Anthropology too!) she is constantly learning about philosophy and psychology to try to help her students (and herself) to understand our human nature.
She trained this year to become Hay Louise teacher so she can help people (on and outside the mat!!) to overcame fears, low self - esteem and learn how to trust in the process of life and in our own personal powers.
She has passion for continue learning and training. She never stops!
During her career she attended hundreds and hundreds of workshops and courses with worldwide known teachers in Yoga, Gymnastics and Fitness.
She is also is Qualified Special Need Assistant, that helped her to develop and teach Yoga and Fitness classes to children, teens and adults with Autism, Down Syndrome and Learning difficulties, teaching and reminding her constantly the power of love, patience and understanding…
She has been featured in the Irish Times (twice!) for her Yoga classes for Men and for her Special Need Classes.
Also in the Positive Life magazine and for her Body Toning class was featured recently in Mintmag.ie as one of the 10 best fitness classes in Dublin!
Claudia is also the author of Yoga for Computer Users, a DVD, designed to offer a relief to the symptoms people get with long term computer use,
helping to improve posture, flexibility and general strength as well as increase body awareness.
