It has been my pleasure to teach a weekly wellness class at Indigo Lounge Wellness + Eatery, specifically designed for Firefighters and their families, over the past seven months; I appreciate the experience and its positive impact on my teaching. Indigo Lounge Wellness + Eatery. Here is a little pat on the back from one of my students.
“Thanks to our brave green Yoga instructor who dared to take on our crazy group.
Laura every week the group raves about how wonderful you are. Your personality really meshes well with us , and your classes are challenging and enjoyable Your music choices are awesome, and we really enjoyed your intention setting at the start of class.
You have done so great and your confidence has grown so much since the beginning, we feel you have clearly found your calling ❤
It has been an absolute pleasure having you as our teacher, and we really hope that you are here in the fall when we return.”

New to yoga? Perfect. You belong here.
This beginner class is slow, supportive, and refreshingly judgment-free. We’ll move, breathe, wobble a little, and maybe even laugh at ourselves along the way.
Just show up as you are… that’s more than enough.
Come try it. Your mat is waiting.

I remember seeing you, so fearless and ready to go, and I thought, "How am I going to keep up with this beautiful storm?" Fourteen years later, I'm still trying. You've always been a step ahea...

Happy Birthday Jacob my Jacob! You are the star player of this week’s Weekly Seed.

Today, my son Jacob turns 22, and a part of me is doing a little celebratory dance. Not because I'm not thrilled for him, but because we have officially survived the dreadful teenage years. It’s a miracle, really, that we all made it out alive and with our sense of humour mostly intact.The Teenage...

Check out my newest post on “The Weekly Seed”.

Confession time: I used to think a "downward dog" was just how my dog looked when he was begging for treats. But here I am, a little older, a little wiser, and definitely a lot more bendy, having just wrapped up my 200-hour yoga teacher training. What possessed me, you ask? Well, grab a kombucha, be...
