Thank you Claire for inviting me to enjoy your sound bath.

I was a little unsure what to expect so it was great to hear what the session would entail on my arrival. The set up of your room was very inviting and helped me to feel relaxed from the start. You explained the experience was to be sleep promoting and indeed with a sleep promoting meditation i was very relaxed. I like the sound of the seed shakers that helped me to bring my awareness back to the room. The advice shared afterwards about reintegration to awareness was also very welcome, with your relaxing voice and gentle tones.

I very much look forward to experiencing another one.

Thank you Claire!

Fit Treat Oct ‘22: And what a treat it was! Claire and the team ensured we all had a fabulous day from beginning to end. I can’t say I wasn’t a bit apprehensive about attending, whether my abilities would suit the exercises but Claire made sure no-one would feel like this and there were adaptations for each exercise . Food was outstanding as was the wonderful experience of meeting new people. So highly recommended and will be there for the next one.

What can I say about Claire, well, she’s AMAZING! I highly recommend her, book now!
I’ve had 1:1 sessions with her for just over 4 months and I have thoroughly enjoyed them all, apart from the first Tabata session we did, really didn’t like that but came to sort of love them!
Claire takes time at the beginning to fully understand what you want out of your sessions and is professional, friendly, patient and motivational. All sessions are different and aimed at you achieving your goals, she fully explains and demonstrates techniques to you and her beady eye doesn’t miss anything, so you definitely get the most out of every session.

I started pilates in order to strengthen my lower back and work on my core stability. Claire has been an incredible teacher. She ensures you have a good level of challenge whilst working within your own ability. Having equipment to use within the session always adds an element of fun and keeps things exciting! Definitely the highlight of my week and would highly recommend.

From the moment the session began, I felt a sense of calm wash over me as the gentle sounds and vibrations filled the space. The soothing tones created an atmosphere where I could disconnect from the stresses of daily life and focus entirely on the present moment.

As the session progressed, I noticed my mind becoming quieter and my body feeling lighter. The sounds seemed to guide me into a state of deep relaxation, allowing me to release tension that I had been carrying without even realising it. I felt cocooned by the sounds which effortlessly flowed through my body; I found it easier to let go of racing thoughts and simply enjoy the experience without any expectations.

One of the aspects I enjoyed most was the feeling of peace and stillness that the sound bath created. The unique sounds blended together beautifully, creating a sense of harmony and balance. I felt both grounded and refreshed, and the experience left me with a greater awareness of how important it is to take time for self-care and relaxation. Additionally I enjoyed the poem at the end reminding me to be kind to myself.  

After the session, I felt calmer, more centred, and mentally refreshed. The sound bath provided an opportunity to slow down, recharge, and reconnect with myself. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would happily participate in another sound bath in the future, as it had a positive impact on both my wellbeing and state of mind. 

Claire provided an excellent well-being and stress management approach to bringing a team through a restructure. Corporate well-being objectives were exceeded and the team benefited from a combination of exercise, meditation and relaxation planning and expertise over a 12 week period. No absence or sickness was reported over the well-being period. Would highly recommend Claire, an engaging practitioner who always goes an additional mile to meet or exceed corporate expectations.

Over the last 6 years I’ve struggled to find a competent Pilates teacher in the Oxford area. I tried Claire’s Thursday evening class Autumn 2021, and became a regular ever since. Class sizes are small which means Claire can really focus on individuals needs. Claire knows how to push you enough so that each session you can see progress in your own abilities. Classes are friendly, fun and significantly contributes to improved mental health.

I was lucky enough to attend Claire’s Welsh retreat in 2024.  From the wonderful healthy food, which was so nourishing and filling, to a mix of very special Pilates classes bringing attention, focus and relaxation to the forefront.  Accommodation is on a shared basis and is set within stunning Welsh scenery.  If you want to give your mind body and soul a treat then you need this in your life.  Highly recommend.

Claire quite literally changed everything I thought I knew about my body! She took so much care and focus on developing a suitable programme that made me challenge myself and meet new goals each week. I feel stronger, fitter and happier. Thank you, Claire.

Claire was honest, reliable and filled with fitness experience and knowledge. Claire made me feel at ease, but was thorough and worked me hard for someone that had little or no excerise in their daily routine. She made me feel different very quickly about myself and gave me a spark back in my life that had gone out. I would highly recommend her and her training. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Having 1:1 sessions with Claire every week has been one of the best decisions I’ve made! Claire is just amazing! She keeps me motivated, makes fitness fun and goes the extra mile to help me be the best I can be. I feel myself progressing every week and she keeps me going even when I’m ready to give up. I highly recommend Claire to everyone!

I had a magical time on Claire’s April retreat. Whilst the venue and food were wonderful, it is Claire who made the retreat so special. She is such a caring and authentic teacher who created an inclusive, fun and safe space for us all to relax, recharge, share, and emerge afterwards feeling inspired and stronger in body and spirit. I am so looking forward to the next retreat.

Very popular experienced and motivational personal trainer. Being new to PT, I was fortunate enough to secure slots with Claire who took time to understand my goals and talk in depth with me about diet and areas to focus for my fitness and strength. Claire is always thoughtful about every session and has gone the extra mile with me since I have started working with her. My bad days have been turned into good days. I was lucky to find Claire, she is in demand so I recommend you get in touch ASAP. It will be worth it.

Great motivation to start me running and achieving my goal of 5k and running my first parkrun.

Flexibility with training times to fit around my work and contact between sessions to keep me motivated.

Excellent running advice and tips for style and stamina. It would have been difficult to achieve this without your support and encouragement.

Thank you.

Personal training and pilates with Claire has completely changed how I feel about my body. I’ve gained both in strength and confidence since training with Claire and know that she’s focused on me – ensuring that I’m training at a level that’s right for me, but is also challenging me to achieve more that I think I can.

I look forward to each session and afterwards always feel energised and motivated to continue. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Claire to anyone who wants to invest in their physical and mental fitness – she’s brilliant !

I went to Claire Hunt through Bark for 1 to 1 Pilates as I didn’t feel confident to join a class. Claire was very friendly and gave me the confidence boost to join a class. I have now joined Claire’s class. Claire’s classes are very enjoyable and effective. Claire covers all levels of Pilates within the classes. I would highly recommend Claire and thoroughly enjoy taking part in her classes.

Claire has been with me now over a year. She is incredibly patient and motivating and I’ve begun to look forward to our sessions together. I could not speak highly enough of her and would not hesitate to recommend her.

I had been attending Claire’s pilates classes for just over a year when I fell pregnant. Having known Claire had prenatal and postnatal qualifications in fitness I was keen to continue with my pilates journey. Claire is incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, explaining how each move or exercise will help with pregnancy and even labour! As my pregnancy develops, Claire has adapted the exercises to ensure I get full benefit and that both baby and myself are safe. The use of different equipment makes each week fresh and interesting. I would absolutely recommend Claire to any expectant or new mum. I know I will be continuing with my pilates journey with Claire’s help after the arrival of my baby.

We’re only 3 sessions in to our programme but so far I have been impressed with Claire’s professional knowledge and experience, together with her enthusiasm. I’ve noticed a difference already and am glad that I have employed Claire.

I do Pilates with Claire Hunt on a Tuesday evening and being a woman in my late 50s and not so flexible and carrying extra pounds, I have found Claire to be a totally brilliant instructor. She is supportive and encouraging, giving me tips and pointers all the time to help me. She has an amazing sense of humour making her classes a complete joy.

I didn’t think Pilates was for me but Claire has made me love it and I know I am improving. Just thank you Claire 😊
