Join me in the Sacred Valley of Peru for a heartfelt Yin Yoga teacher training. This training is for those of you wanting to retreat into the depths of Yin Yoga.

I want to give this course because I feel inspired.  Everyday that I practice Yin Yoga, I feel more content, alert, joy, balance and peace. There isn't any part of my life that hasn't been positively affected by the practice of Yin. I would love to share that feeling with you, and more!

CONNECT WITH NATURE, RECONNECT WITH YOUR INNER SELF

Earth Tones is a private retreat located just minutes from the Plaza de Armas in Ollantaytambo, nestled in Peru's Sacred Valley. The property includes two charming tiny homes, a house with four suites, an open-air platform for yoga, and a spacious, scenic yard perfect for wandering. It’s an ideal space to soak in breathtaking views and connect with the beauty of nature.

PLATFORM 

On the open-air yoga platform, surrounded by the serene beauty of mountains and greenery, deepen your yoga practice and training while connecting with nature. The platform offers a peaceful atmosphere where fresh air and the sounds of nature enhance focus and relaxation, making each pose feel more grounded and mindful.

LODGING 

The rooms are thoughtfully designed with shared living in mind. 

Each room contains extra-large twin beds with soft cotton linens, spacious bathrooms (hot water 24 hours a day), and ample storage for your luggage and personal items. 

The quiet surroundings of the nighttime hours ensure undisturbed rest, leaving you refreshed and rejuvenated for the next day of your training journey.

Claire Beiersdorf enjoys yoga for the immersive experience. The movement of the body in sync with breath and music, the exploration of asanas, the self-education, the building of physical strength and internal calm. Claire has always been sporty and competitive and the discovery of yoga was a brand new experience: a way to train her body to move in ways she couldn’t even as a preteen gymnast, and an athletic pursuit where there was no competition, only a constant striving for self-improvement. Claire’s love for the practice of yoga led her to Cusco, Peru, where she completed her 200-hour certification at the InBound School of Yoga in 2013. As the practice of yoga has increased her physical strength and flexibility, the experience of teaching has increased her comfort in front of groups and made her a more confident leader, all of which she has carried with her into her personal and professional lives. In December of 2015, she returned to South America to complete her 500-hour certification at the InBound School of Yoga. 

Throughout the years of teaching, Claire has experimented with many different styles of practice. In the last 5 years, she has immersed herself in the world of Yin yoga. First, falling in love with the practice; and then falling in love with sharing it. She has completed two courses of yin; in 2020 and later in 2024

As an instructor, Claire strives to bring energy and to encourage her students to experiment with their own practices. She wants her students to feel safe, inspired and to have individually rewarding experiences. 

Claire is truly thankful for what she has gained from the community, and is thrilled to have the opportunity to contribute to it. Practicing yoga (in whatever form it shows up) is the most joyous and important part of her day. She feel so honored to have been guided towards this path and that so much lies ahead. It excites her to feel so young in her practice and teaching. There is so much more to learn and teach throughout this life.
