Hey my names Ciara,
Welcome to Wild Wave Yoga.
I was exposed to yoga as a means of alternative healing when I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis in 2015. Yoga offered an avenue of self exploration and freedom during a time where I felt anger and resentment towards my body. Yoga gave a real feeling of returning home, to both body and mind. It wasn’t until I deepened my practice that I became aware of how movement was the medicine I really needed. So this journey inspired me to complete a 200hr teach training to share yoga as a path to health, healing and happiness.
Why ‘Wild Wave’ you might ask? The idea was born after a van trip up the west coast of Ireland during a time I felt like I had lost direction after walking away from an overwhelming full time managerial role. Life can be a series of Wild Waves, waves of emotion and this matched with my love for the sea is what inspired the brand.
It’s where I draw inspiration from and just like a yoga practice - it brings me mental clarity and peace.
I teach various styles of Hatha and Yin style classes online, in studio and on the beach in Cork. I also have a side hustle making candles, which originally started as a way for students to have a little piece of yoga studio at home, while we were navigating a pandemic.
My hope is to provide enjoyable classes allowing space for students to strengthen their bodies and calm their minds as we learn to ride this Wild Wave called L I F E.
Hopefully I will see you on the mat :)
Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti
