Clarity Barton is a Women's Empowerment Leader, Healer and Tantric & Shamanic Yoga Teacher who is following her calling and inner guidance in providing her Canada-based and growing international community with heart-felt, transformative and healing experiences.

After studying traditional Hatha Yoga in India, Clarity graduated from an international Shamanic Yoga School where she was initiated into the Shamanic, Tantric and Sound Healing Arts.
