"I must say I have learned more about proper alignment in yoga posses in the few months I have been attending Lauren’s classes than I have for years of practicing Ashtanga. Lauren's classes are challenging, fun, light, and often very humorous. Lauren is a very consciences teacher who genuinely cares for her students. Her teachings inspire me to lift my practice to a higher level. It has been a real eye opener to not experience pain in some of the old posses I had been doing incorrectly for all these years. Lauren's DVD on the proper alignment for the upper body has been a great compliment to my practice and to Lauren's classes. I have many yoga DVD’s by some serious senior yogis but none of them compare with Lauren's teaching of proper alignment. Lastly, watching Lauren perform demonstrations of difficult posses is in itself inspiring."

"Your DVD is wonderful. I've always had neck problems and although I've taken a few workshops with John Friend, I still didn’t “get” moving the head of the arms back and down. With your DVD, I could see it and do it. That changes everything and my neck already feels relief. I LOVE the DVD. I hope you will consider doing more. Your demonstration is graceful, beautiful, and inspiring. You are a lovely person.
Thank you for offering this gift to the world."

I’ve been studying with Lauren for about a year. Her intense focus on proper body alignment has helped me overcome chronic back pain and deepen my practice more than I ever thought possible. As a physician I’ve often recommended yoga to my patients, but without much confidence that they would find a teacher with real therapeutic skill. In Lauren, I found that teacher for myself.
