"Laura is an excellent teacher. With her clear and calm guidance, I have become much more confident in my ability. I have become stronger and more flexible. I always leave with a greater feeling of well-being and am much more relaxed." - Chris J.
I teach Hatha Yoga as well as iRest Yoga Nidra (both group classes and "dyads"). I teach groups as well as private sessions. Please contact me for more information.

Hatha Yoga is the most widely practised form of yoga in the world. It combines postures and conscious breath-work to develop awareness, strength, flexibility, and relaxation. I teach a gentle style of Hatha Yoga, which is slower-paced and well-suited for beginners, those with health concerns, older bodies, or those who simply want a gentler practice.

iRest Yoga Nidra is a guided form of meditation that provides a supportive path into deep meditation. It was originally developed to help veterans with trauma. However, iRest proved so helpful with stress and anxiety that it is now offered in a range of settings, such as schools, correctional facilities, addiction treatment centres, cancer clinics, and yoga studios.

An iRest "Dyad" is a facilitated one-on-one meditation experience. During a dyad, the student is completely supported by the teacher in welcoming and inquiring into layers of experience. These sessions offer the opportunity to meet what is arising in the present moment from a place of openness, acceptance, and safety.
