Meet Lauren

I am a long-time student of yoga, beginning my practice over 25 years ago, and a lover of all movement. I began a deeper exploration of movement after I experienced an injury while training for the Chicago marathon in 2006. I found that yoga specifically during this time was a type of movement that allowed my mind and body to be connected in a powerful way. I also became aware of the beautiful healing energy of community and how when people move together it can transform the relationship you have with others and within yourself. After my father passed away in 2007, my practice evolved even more as I started to incorporate mindfulness techniques such as meditation and breathwork into my everyday life. My nervous system, body and mind began to feel the wondrous effects of combining movement and mindfulness. I started to feel both strong and calm while navigating life’s challenges.

After investing in myself and completing various certifications and trainings I knew my passion was to teach women like you empowerment tools such as movement and mindfulness to help transform as well as support your body and mind.

I believe the combination of movement and mindfulness allows you to live the life you want and deserve on and off the mat. You will ultimately be empowered and inspired to care for and love yourself from the inside out. Creating a mind and body capable and strong to navigate life's obstacles. Virtually and in person I strive to create an environment where you can explore and expand your physical body and inner awareness, cultivate mindfulness, and learn tools to self regulate and create calm from within.

I feel very grateful to be your movement and mindfulness guide and I’m excited to start this journey with you!

See you on the mat! <3

Where do I even begin! It's nearly indescribable the impact that Lauren and her magical classes have had on my life. The energy she brings to a room, the sequences, the challenge, the affirmations, the music, it's just all so infectious! Her classes opened my eyes to the deeper dimensions of mindful movement and body awareness, blending the physical practice with the rhythms and energy of hip-hop music connection, it's seriously electric!

Lauren's classes have such a perfect balance of challenge and restoration that leave you feeling strong, grounded, and equipped with all the tools to move through life's challenges off the mat. Lauren has not only inspired me to become a teacher, but also to embrace my own teaching style and to stay true to my own authenticity and unique flavor :) I could go on and on - get in her class!!
