Adventure. Novelty. Joy. Imagine This...
You return home from Belize lighter, refreshed, and deeply renewed.
The jungle’s beauty and sisterhood’s warmth stay with you, along with a steadier breath, a kinder inner voice, and a rekindled sense of joy.
This experience creates not just memories, but lasting self-love that continues to bloom long after the retreat. Join me Feb 27-March 5, 2026! Registration is open! https://www.laurentoolin.com/ananda-shakti-2026

Now More Than Ever✨
The world needs yoga teachers and therapists who are steady, strong, and spirit-led. This training is designed to help you embody that—combining ancient wisdom with modern application so you can step forward with clarity, skill, and presence.

For decades, I’ve been passionate about raising the bar for yoga education, and I know how to guide teachers who truly stand out—professionals who not only know their stuff, but can share it in a way that makes a real difference.

We begin in November, and the next 5 to register receive exclusive VIP early-bird tuition. Will you be one of them?

Forget the six-pack—let’s build a soul-pack.

I'm offering CORE DYNAMICS this Saturday, June 28th from 9-11a eastern at Maitri Yoga in Troy or online via Zoom.

This isn’t your average core class. We’re diving deep into your energetic center with breathwork, movement, and meditation to light up your real power source.

Strong spine. Soft belly. Fierce heart.
Come get lit—from the inside out.

If you can't make it live, the replay will be available for 14 days. (Indicate this when you sign up).

Did you know that I have created and led more than TWENTY FIVE retreats since 2006? It truly is one of my favorite ways to offer the life affirming, expansive and super fun teachings of Yoga. Novelty and community are proven happiness boosters, and when you add the therapeutic experiences that yoga brings, well that’s just MAGIC.

My next retreat is this summer, July 18-20 at Wiawaka on the shores of Lake George NY.  i’ve been bringing groups of bad ass women here since 2012 and can’t wait to go back. Ladies, you need this! Let’s co-create  revived and resplendent YOU! .
