A little about my journey
I was told I would likely never run again after years of contact sports and competitive running.
Sitting hurt, walking hurt, moving hurt.

I started doing yoga on, really, a whim.  I won't lie-
I . did . not . get . it.

Being still wasn't my thing, and RELAXING was not in my wheelhouse.  
I was meant for POWER, baby!  
Oh, yeah, and 
I couldn't touch my toes...
​
Little did I know, my strength would compound, and my injuries would subside
as soon as I learned to slow down.  
Who woulda thunk!?  

I also learned that
by repetition of proper alignment,
I could re-teach my body to have better habits, 
​resulting in improved posture, less pain, and a better overall attitude.


I now run multiple half marathons a year, and some are even straight up mountains.  (Yes, I am a wee bit nutty.)
​
My classes are inclusive and encouraging.
We all have different abilities, and we all benefit from cheering each other on!

All classes start with a short meditation at the beginning, and a relaxing savasana at the end

Mindfulness is an important part of the yoga experience, and it's a key component of my classes. 
Did you know that the physical movements of yoga were actually created
to prepare the body for long bouts of sitting meditation?!  


Linking body to breath in a meditative way is a beautiful experience that I love introducing to people.  
​Each time you find yourself dreamily moving in synch with your breath is just as fresh as the first time.

​I look forward to sharing a practice with you soon!

Laura is a very calming, professional yoga teacher. We had a couples yoga session. This can’t have been easy to plan as my husband and I vary in yoga needs and experience. Laura made us both feel very relaxed and found various ways to support and challenge our yoga practice. My husband who has a pressurized, desk based job, particularly enjoyed the relaxation and felt less muscle tension the next day at work. Having tried various yoga classes, DVDs and YouTube videos I found Laura’s approach refreshing. Especially the hands on adjustments- meaning you really get the most out of finding the right positions in poses. As we continue on our yoga journey with Laura we look forward to fulfilling our physical potential through a personalized programme."

Enjoyable yoga sessions held by a great teacher - strong and gentle at the same time.
The class was relaxing and helped focusing while getting a good stretch and a considerable workout.
Laura is very helpful at correcting poses and able to focus on areas that need special treatment. Highly recommended!
