Lauren’s  life-long love of movement is evident in her classes.  No matter the modality, she creates a non-competitive, nurturing atmosphere for learning, growing and having fun!  She is skilled at clearly breaking down movement and making it accessible to all ages and learning styles. She feels that each person’s life is a work of art and an epic learning adventure.  She loves to support and inspire others on their path of self-exploration, growth and healing by weaving together her unique blend of skills and abilities.

Besides holding certifications in yoga, Tai Chi and Qi Gong, and Sound Healing, Lauren has studied African and Middle Eastern Dance, Creative Movement, Shake Your Soul (the yoga of dance) folk herbalism, regenerative living and holistic healing and is currently in training to become a somatic therapist.

Lauren is also a certified massage therapist, holds a BA in Fine Arts and MA in Special Education.  She has a passion for cooking for vitality (Gaia Macrobiotic cooking), and meditative/intuitive fine arts. 

“I design my classes for deep relaxation, self-reflection, and healing. I like to bring a casual playfulness and open attitude to my work because laughter is sometimes the best medicine! I have spent decades practicing holistic healing in many modalities, and have a strong foundation in energy work, and yet I am constantly amazed by the power we each hold to heal ourselves. I love nothing more than to share these things with others.”
