Mysore Magic: A Jivamukti Experience in India with Clare Nicholls.
January 3rd – January 14th 2027
Start your new year with this immersion into Yoga and India.
Clare has been travelling to Mysore for more than 13years, before moving to Bern she spent more time there than in the UK. Now she wants to share it with you.
This 10 day experience will include asana, meditation, and philosophy. We plan to start the morning at 7am with a meditation followed by a 2hr asana practice, a delicious brunch and then a 2hr philosophy discussion. The curated component of the day is finished by 2pm so you have lots of free time to explore the city and the surrounding area. From her many years of experience Clare will offer recommendations for places to go and things to see.
We will be staying in the beautiful heritage building of the Green Hotel.
The Green Hotel is an ethically run, environmentally conscious, historically significant venue that Clare has been using for many years. Clare is viewed by the staff as an “Akka” which means aunty and the family vibe is tangible.
The cost is 808CHF, this includes accommodation, brunch, and asana, mediation, philosophy classes.
It does not include flights (Swiss now fly direct to Bangalore – the nearest international airport), airport transfers, daily excursions.
If you want to share a room the cost can be reduced please contact me directly if this is the case and we can calculate it accordingly. If you want to bring family members or friends who do not want to participate in the yoga this is also possible, again please contact me and we will make it work for you.
Clare’s years of experience traveling in India and specifically in Mysore make this a very special opportunity to escape the winter with a guide who you know and who will help you feel grounded and safe.

First do no harm
A 10 hour training about how to integrate pregnant people into asana classes.
Many yoga teachers feel uncertain when a student tells them they are pregnant. This course will remove that uncertainty giving you the confidence to teach people at any stage of their pregnancy safely and skilfully.
Over three sessions we will look at the anatomy and physiology of pregnancy, how to adapt common asanas and sequences. We will learn about how to keep safety as a priority without it becoming prohibitive.
Price: 300CHF

This is an area of expertise for Clare Nicholls who spent more than ten years as a midwife in the UK working with both high and low risk pregnancies and has been teaching yoga for over twenty years. It was exactly the uncertainty of pregnant people attending classes that led Clare to midwifery as she wanted to deepen and develop her knowledge and understanding of this important time in women’s lives so she could support them effectively though yoga.
Clare is a qualified Yoga for Pregnancy Birth and Beyond teacher with Birthlight, an advanced certified Jivamukti teacher and a holder of the Diploma in Yoga from The British wheel of Yoga. She has been present at over 1000 births and works extensively with yoga teachers focusing on professional development and mentorship.
