Claire Robbie

Claire Robbie is a meditation teacher and yogi, ex-journo and newsreader, and Founder of New Zealand’s first multidisciplinary meditation centre The School of Modern Meditation (SOMM); Claire Robbie has combined everything she is passionate about into a varied and interesting career that she has evolved around being a present mother to her sons Jack and Rafael.

Her love of language, people and human connection has now segwayed into helping people incorporate the powerful practices of breathwork and meditation into their lives through SOMM: an online and in-person centre for therapeutic, inner-work modalities. Sobriety is also a pillar of Claire’s life and she also facilitates a powerful meditation-based program called The Alcohol Reset, and has worked with hundreds of people helping them drink differently.

"I owe my life to my practices and it has been the greatest gift to be able to share these teachings with more and more people."
