Portsmouth’s pioneering Claire McBride delivers at Canva HQ.
Claire McBride, The Mindful Movement Coach is a Mother, Holistic Health Expert, Presenter and passionate Educator. This week she put Portsmouth on the map, prestigiously delivering her Mindful Movement Method at global giants Canva HQ, London.
This week, Claire made Portsmouth proud, as she headed to Canva HQ to guide leading Educators, driving change in education with the Edufuturists, with her award winning Mindful Movement Method.
A passionate Teacher of English for over a decade, Claire now works with a host of schools across Hampshire, is an Entrepreneur in Residence at University of Portsmouth and shares her holistic health expertise with other loved local communities such as New Theatre Royal and on her radio show at Express FM.
‘I loved being a Teacher, but I believe in being human first. I could no longer watch the mental health struggles and statistics rise with our young people and in tandem watch my colleagues and leaders drown in a broken system focused on exam results and league tables. We need to act now and make emotional health an integral part of the curriculum. I knew that I needed to be the change I wanted to see. That’s why I founded The Mindful Movement Mission and now support young people, staff and whole communities.’ Claire McBride
Claire took her Mindful Movement Method to Jaipur, India late 2025, working with single Mothers and children at Faith school, devastated by HIV and AIDS.
She has spoken in Parliament on wellbeing in education, backed by Great Ormond St and MP Steven Morgan. Claire also received the Inspirational Women of Portsmouth Role Model Award for her services to education and community.
In early Spring this year, she begins her work with the Duchess of Goodwood as their leading holistic health expert, while serving local schools and community events. Canva are global giants in the marketing world and this week’s event puts Clare’s unique and innovative mission on the map, watching her rise as a recognised pioneer of emotional health in education and holistic health.
