Cláudia is enthusiastic about life, seeing the good in everyone and everything she does, and always eager to learn.

She worked in international politics for a few years but never felt complete in it. Along the way, her yoga practice and surfing kept her grounded, until she knew that sharing her passion for the ocean and yoga was the path she should follow.

The ocean has been one of her biggest teachers, especially when it comes to surrender and letting go of control, as the more you connect with your breath and the flow of a wave, the smoother the ride.

She became a surf coach and applied for her first 200H Yoga Teacher Training with Manu School of Yoga in the same year, 2021, the year she met Manel and started practicing with him.

With Manel she found a structure for her practice, a place to grow and go deeper, and everything came together. She is currently studying to become a Precision and Flow Certified Teacher of Manu School of Yoga and starting a new 100H TT within the School, where she found a home.
