Alura Yoga

Laura is a Yoga Alliance Professional accredited teacher based in South London, and teaches a blend of bespoke yoga classes in Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Hatha, and Meditation for group and 1-2-1 sessions.  

As a child she trained as a dancer, singer and actor, continuing these passions into her adult life, and she now works as a yoga teacher, actor, musician and writer.  The importance of the connection between body, breath and mind has continued with Laura from her dancing days, and deepened in recent years with her development in yoga.  She was fortunate enough to be awarded a scholarship to complete her Yoga Teachers Training Qualification in Rishikesh, India, and is accredited internationally by Yoga Alliance Professionals, to teach Ashtanga, Vinyasa and Hatha Yoga.  She teaches a range styles for different ages and abilities, provides cover classes as well as private or 1-2-1 sessions, and teaches bespoke classes including Yoga for Actors, Meditation, and Yoga for Children.

A typical class with Laura will begin with a centring warm up that draws attention to the breath, then will move into asanas (sun salutations and postures), followed by pranayama (expansion of breath) and will end with meditation and relaxation.  Classes are tailored to suite all abilities and provide a warm and welcoming atmosphere, as Laura strongly believes that yoga is a deeply personal experience that can be started at any time, and is focused not on how you look to the outside or on the mats of others, but on your unique journey looking inwards.  Laura loves sharing her passion for yoga, and feels it is a privilege to see people develop in skills, confidence and peace as their relationship with yoga deepens.
