Lauren Aimée - Yoga, Movement, Macramé

Bedford based Yoga Teacher and movement practitioner celebrating free movement and body diversity th Hi! Through this I developed my Yogance Playshops. x

My name is Lauren Aimée and I am a Yoga teacher and movement practitioner based in Bedfordshire, UK. I have a passion for free movement, which began when I was dancer at University of Lincoln. Whilst studying, I completed my Yoga Teacher Training in 2017 (Bahia Yoga Studios) to investigate how I can unite the fluidity and expressivity of dance, with the mindful awareness of Yoga. I progressed on to achieve an MA in Dance, Performance & Choreography (University of Bedfordshire) where I was able to explore these ideas more creatively. I love to experiment within the realms of moving unconsciously, improvisation using the senses and thinking with the body. In a typical class, you will be guided to listen to your body, listen to the internal sensations and allow them to manifest in movement. Learning to let go of what that movement might look like but observing how it feels. Yogance is a practice, not only for dancers, but for anyone who want to move. It combines the focus, alignment and structure of the asanas with the freedom, expressivity and fluidity of dance. Mixing this with music allows us to explore what it is like to move from within. This has also since been condensed in to a weekly Mindful Flow class, my signature class where we explore these themes on a smaller scale. No dance experience is required, I simply encourage my students to move and express how they are feeling, I am there merely as a guide. Nowadays, I continue my movement research, but whilst also making it accessible for everyone. My classes are open to ALL. Every shape, age, race, gender. Everyone is welcome and I strive to provide an inclusive environment. I’m a firm advocate of body positivity. You don’t need to be a specific size or shape to begin your practice, and I encourage all to observe your body and all the wonderful things it can do. Have I convinced you enough to join a class yet? Message me to get involved! Hope to see you on the mat soon!

I never do photo dumps… mostly because the end of the month comes around so quick and before I know it another has been & gone 😅

but the start to 2026 has been nothing but sweet vibes!

I love that I get to be my weird & whimsical self with you lovely lot, I love how you all continue to show up, for yoga, for yourselves - and I love it even more when you bring cake too hahaha 😋

enjoy the questionable selfie at the end, I can’t remember why I took this but it looks like I was questioning another do-it-for-the-plot moment or something 👀

from your wellness bestie, pink lil pixie, frolicking fairy, your favourite yoga teacher, lauren ###xx

this workshop felt like a soothing balm to my creative & curious soul 😍 2026 is the year I get my wriggly ass back in more studios, meeting more creative folk and soaking up all the fun & freedom like sponge!

thank you .limon_moves for responding to my one and only message on that whatsapp group for like 2 years and .a.lamb it was lush to connect with you!

aiming for one workshop a month, so stay tuned to see where I end up in March! 🦋

Louise Delaney first mentioned this idea to me at an event in december, but when i first received the email a few weeks later it honestly blew me away

I’ve always said i love the pre-amble before a yoga class, where people slowly arrive, share smiles and have casual chats over a herbal tea whilst settling in, probably lasting no more than 5 minutes before we begin…

but in those precious 5 minutes, connections form & new friendships are made 🫶🏼

everyone has a story, life has a way of throwing us curveballs and challenges that shake us, and it’s yoga that grounds us, and its connections like this that encourage us to keep going

I’m so grateful to louise for trusting me with something so special as this, for wanting to put on an extra yoga class for others purely from the goodness of her heart

it’s people like louise that make this community as special as it is 💜

to every soul that walks through those studio doors, know that you are so so welcome and you are becoming a part of something so magical 🥹💫

A gentle FREE yoga series exploring devotion beyond self-love - not a challenge to complete, but an invitation to return to yourself with presence and care 🤍

From movement to reflection, breath to ritual, this week is about choosing what truly matters and letting devotion become a practice that stays.

✨ Welcome to the 7 Days of Devotion Series! ✨ - full schedule and trailer is already up on patreon ready to get you all excited hehe!

🗓️ Free on Patreon | starts tomorrow!

Come as you are, and I shall meet you there! 🫶

An ordinary voicenote between two wellbeing besties that becomes the spark for something really special… 👀

I’d actually love to gather an album of mine and Dani’s voicenotes where all our thoughts and inspiration lie… this is one of me riffing on devotion, a word that has been echoing throughout my mind for weeks. A word that tickles my eardrums in the most satisfying way, a word that goes beyond self-love, how it feels deeper, steadier, more committed. Not performative. Not trendy. Just true…

And from that little voice note, another collaboration began to unfold 🌱

On 27th February, 7:30–9pm, we’re coming together for our 90-minute yin & restorative Calm Collective Collaboration - infused with new duo assists, new essential oils, and held in the energy of devotion.

Devotion to your body, your breath, your nervous system, your becoming 🫶🏼

This practice is slow, supportive, deeply settling - a space to soften, receive, and remember what it feels like to truly show up for yourself 🦋

There are just 8 spaces left, and we’d love to hold one for you!

ever thought of coming along to a shamanic cacao ceremony? ❤️

I truly love how each ceremony follows a similar structure, but are entirely different each time!

Each one surprises me in some way, delivering exactly what I need (although it’s perhaps not exactly what I want 👀😅) I love listening to everyone’s stories, findings and wisdom, we all have entirely seperate journeys but we all come together for a collective experience 🫶🏼

Our next gathering is the 26th April, with only 3 keen bean tickets left! So if you are feeling a lil cacao curious - come along! 🌱🔗 in bio!

the heels flashbacks from the night before are reaaaal 😅

but tbh I love being the yoga teacher who can hold space for softness, regulate the nervous system and absolutely throw it back on the dance floor 😜✌🏼

it’s the best of both worlds, and I will not stop shouting about how every women needs to go to a heels dance class atleast once in their life!

I fully blame and for unleashing this sassy queen! 🫶🏼

movement deets below ⤵️ oooft some delicious movements your going to want to add to your next sequence/self practice asaaaap ✨

• revolved half split 🔁 tiger
lots of warm up for the hamstrings and heart needed here but once you are feeling spacious, it’s a delightful movement to cycle through. keep the front leg hip back and knee soft in the revolved half split and kick the foot in to the hand in tiger 🌱

• revolved TT 🔁 half puppy ➡️ thread the needle ➡️ mod wild thing
awareness of weight placement can make this oh so juicy. in the revolved TT, shift weight into the opposite knee and keep the knees level, taking the twist away from the hips and more so into the thoracic spine. indulge in that slow drag back, pressing the armpit to the earth, hello lats 😍 and in the thread the needle, again shift the hips to the opposite direction 🌱

• half childs 🔁 half malasana
a great one to wake up the hips and inner things!

save for your next self practice or for your next class! 💌
