Bloom Yoga & Fitness

Bloom Yoga & Fitness My name is Laura Martin, and I have been leading Fitness classes since 2006. Join me on the mat! I am so excited to share Yoga with my friends and family!

I am a full time teacher at White Hall Elementary School, but love to get in a great workout anytime I can. And everything's more fun with friends, so join me sometime! My Fitness Background:
In 2006, I began training to be a fitness instructor. After teaching Toning, Step, Kickboxing, Cycling and Boot Camp classes at Transylvania University and EKU, I found Yoga. Yoga felt so natural to me because it incorporates familiar elements of Gymnastics and Dance. At the time, I had completed my Primary Group Fitness Instructor Training through the Aerobics and Fitness Association of America, as well as initial trainings with YogaFit. In 2008, I completed my 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training with Erin Smith at the Om Place in Winchester, KY. Through the years, I have grown as an instructor thanks to incredible opportunities to connect with a group of fitness professionals, and folks that just enjoy a great workout. I currently teach classes at Fitness with Faith, Bluegrass Bliss Yoga & Bodywork, and privately to a group of hardworking ladies, and will continue to indefinitely as Bloom grows. Class details:
Classes are $5 per participant. In order to keep costs low, participants are asked to supply their own mat, blanket, and water. Classes will be scheduled in 8 week sessions, once a week to groups of 6 people or more. Choosing a location is very important; we can work together to do that. We can use privately owned businesses (after hours), basements (mine or yours), or maybe the largest room in your home (with the furniture pushed to the walls). I look forward to using Bloom Yoga & Fitness in a way that benefits our community. I would love to teach one time specialty classes, or host fundraisers. You can message me for more information. While Bloom only provides Yoga classes now, I hope to expand to Personal Training and Boot Camp style classes in the future. Let me know what you would like to try, and maybe we can work it out!

Yoga at EKU is on pause for a little bit. It’s been so fun to teach ESS 190/390 for the last couple of years. I have always loved teaching introductory Yoga classes, but this one has been especially fun, as I have had the chance to adjust each semester to figure out exactly how I want to teach the course. While it’s been a little different each time, I’ve stuck to the same tag line… I’m just showing up each class trying to change your life. 🤸🏻‍♂️😎

Breath work, intentional mindfulness, strong postures, gratitude… guiding these students through reflections about lifetime wellness and how principles of Yoga can impact life at every stage. As an EKU course requirement, they must find a peer reviewed article that advocates for the benefits of Yoga, and then reflect on the personal benefits they have experienced this semester. I love to read what they have to say, and I hope so much that our brief time together really does impact their life in the same way Yoga has impacted mine. 🧘🏻‍♀️💕

As another term of ESS 190/390 comes to a close, I’m pausing with so much gratitude. ❤️

Hope everyone is flowing into 2026!🧘🏻‍♀️🫶🏼

We’re looking forward to offering a few Salty Yoga sessions this winter. We’ll try to offer back-to-back classes when we can, and we may add in a Saturday here and there. Remember, we’re always happy to build a custom class for groups of 6-8. Hope to see you at Element soon!

Hey Yoga Friends! I’m in a season with a little less Social Media. It’s been nice to fill my free time in other ways, but I still miss my online friends! Just had to stop and snap a picture of my trunk after a busy week of all kinds of yoga. I’m so thankful for the opportunity to share Yoga with a crowd of happy kids, and a motivated bunch of EKU students. 🧘🏻‍♀️❤️

Do you struggle to get comfortable with yoga? A Mat-less Salty Yoga class might just be the class for you! 🤪 *no kids allowed 😂😇

{Seriously, though, Yoga in 4 inches of Himalayan sea salt has been a lot of fun. Join us tomorrow night for a Vinyasa flow style class with lots of opportunities for deep breathing, and 45 minutes of Halotherapy. Expect the full sensory experience; hand towels provided. A sense of adventure welcome!}

📸 My husband snapped this picture a few weeks ago while I was sequencing an inversion class, trying to fly under radar in my kids’ playroom. Unsuccessfully.

Hey Folks! Our Salty Yoga session for October start tomorrow! Join us at 6pm. No mats needed. ✨🧘🏻‍♀️

My favorite things about this class are the unique sensory feeling that comes with a little fun in the salt AND the easy breathing. Those post-salt room deep breaths during allergy season are great!! Let us know what you enjoy too!

🧘🏻‍♀️We have a few opportunities for Salty Yoga in October. Looking forward to seeing you in the salt during the second half of the month!

🗓️ Notice Tuesdays and Saturdays on our schedule!
