“My mind, body and soul benefits from doing yoga with Laura. She has a great passion for yoga and loves sharing her gift with all, no matter what your level of movement is. Her instruction helps me stay present and not do more than what my body can do at the moment. I was suffering from chronic sciatica and doing yoga with Laura has strengthened my muscles and helped release tension in my piriformis muscle which gave me the hope and the freedom to safely move again.”

“As a beginning yoga student, I am so fortunate to study with Laura. Her clear cues and creative flows have helped me deepen my relationship with my body and appreciate all that it can do. Laura's joy and positive energy are contagious. She makes me look forward to pre-dawn yoga classes! Laura brings all her skills to her classes - breathwork, sound bath, props, chakra exploration. She is constantly growing and broadening her skillset, and her students benefit from her commitment to self-development. One of my favorite Laura-isms is "practice makes progress." I carry that adage with me to the mat and into the world as I grow in my yoga practice with Laura's support.”
