I Am Yoga philosophy
Life is a paradox.
What I love about yoga and meditation is how it teaches us to move through life with grace and calm. No matter what.
Much like Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita, who didn’t want to go to war, yet was made to fight and in the end won a battle.
Sometimes in life we have to fight the fight or do things that aren’t so comfortable. Yet, when we approach things in a calm manner, however difficult they may be, that is when we harness our inner power.
Enter the healing modalities of yoga and meditation which can help with better mental focus, activate more drive, increase creativity and productivity.
It is my purpose (this lifetime) to help those generate more zest for life through overcoming obstacles by simply shifting perspective and mindset through yoga, breath work and meditation.
Together we will journey to help discover your truth.

I Am Yoga client reviews
For the last two years, yoga with Maria has been both a highlight to my working week (and during lockdowns with her virtual platform), as well as a grounding force for my 'monkey' mind. Her classes are intimate and test me in every respect, spiritually, mentally and physically. But its the feeling afterwards that keeps me coming back - the fog gets lifted, the weight too and I feel more present and appreciative.
Maria's yoga classes are life changing - she is always so intuitive and astute in exactly what kind of flow you need and that's a real gift. Couldn't recommend her classes more!

I have been practicing yoga with Maria for the past 18 months, both in studio and over video conference through Auckland lockdowns. Her classes are close knit yet open and friendly and help to quieten the mind and decompress. If it wasn't for Maria I wouldn't know of my yoga capabilities and gift in crow pose!

”….I could barely stand up, my arthritic pain was so intense that I couldn't focus. I tried various forms of Yoga, Feldenkrois, Pillates, etc but the instructors couldn't get their heads around the idea that my body just doesn't ‘go there’ anymore. I started taking Yoga with Maria Clift of I Am Yoga and she actually paid attention to my body. Where my body didn't go there, she adapted the exercises. And when Maria noticed things my body still does really well, she used that to help me expand my potential. This combination of understanding where I can't go anymore and appreciating that I was not entirely broken really helped and my body improved rapidly. I am now walking and dancing and enjoying life again. Thank you.”

“Maria is a true yogi through and through. I cannot recommend her classes enough. It's been a privilege starting my yoga journey with her and feeling my body's flexibility and capability grow under her encouragement and mentorship. Wherever you are on your personal journey, Maria is your ultimate guide!”
