Nepal and Tibet, both in place and connections are very close to my heart. This morning I watched footage of bridges I’ve walked over with friends and, on later trips, crossed with my son - blow apart in seconds.

The link I’m sharing here is for the Nepal Prime Minister’s Natural Disaster Relief Fund, shared by a friend who lives in the region. For other ways to help, consider organisations such as the Red Cross.

💗 boon for a opening up the - accessory muscles of breathing.
This is one of those poses that practise never feels complete for me without.

A great shoulder strengthener, big front hip opener and a long belly stretch that energises both physically and mentally.
While you’re up - try some reverse push-ups! Remember to keep the engaged.

An article every yoga teacher, yoga student or inspiring teacher trainee should read. This is the truth of what we are dealing with.

Discernment in any discipline is required and Yoga is no different.

“Expand your reading list. Follow teachers on social media that challenge the accepted yoga dogma. Attend workshops by teachers you trust to be critical” - Sarah Dittmore 👏👏
I couldn’t agree more.

I first discovered the Yoga Sutras the way many yogis do; through a lecture on the 8-Limbs of Yoga as a part of my 200-hour yoga teacher training. It was one of our two workshops on the Yoga Sutras; the other was a more general look at the first ten or so sutras. That, a short lecture on the story o...

So... this happened. Have a read if you're in need of a little yoga/movement nerd out. If you like it.. please give it a little share. Big Love, Laura.

A cheesy line but… fascia is fascia-nating! To date, nothing has informed my observation process in client patterning as much as an understanding of the main fascial lines and how the tone, or lack...

Introducing to you some of your newly graduated yoga teachers (with the rest of the cohort just around the corner from hatching 🐣 so exciting!) 🥰

Watching this group of ladies flow through sequence over the weekend was a delight - fully immersed and present they move with intelligence. They have deep, felt awareness and understanding of this thing we call Yoga.

Training began the day of the bushfires, our beautiful Rani even lost her home that day (despite this, she’s the first to hand in her assignments!) Throw in a pandemic to the disruption out the other side of it we persisted with coming together in preference to online. These ladies have done the work and are ready to guide and support you. They are safe, knowledgable and grounded teachers.

Fierce, passionate and strong, they embody wisdom, express with grace and have fantastic humour! They all connect to the power, peace and truth within themselves, and share their love of yoga from their own unique embodied experience. I’m really proud! But they don’t need me to say that but still...

Yoga is about so much more than flexibility, the asana, “doing the pose right”, looking a certain a way, the Lycra and many other misleading marketing ploys. These ladies live the practice. They serve community, are devotional parents and family members, meditation experts amongst other things. Mostly, I love so much that the dare to be themselves and I think they will help you to do the same.

Special thanks to for your support along the way. ☺️☺️

Yoga is to work with energy, so if we are at deficit or there’s a lot going on, we have to respect that.

At this time of year, so many of us just keep pushing. Here’s the permission if you need it, to slow down, to feel however you feel and cultivate rest.

By stopping, feeling and becoming aware (present) of the sensory state we can begin to build up our stores again. Your nervous system runs the show, respect that and it will be kinder back to you.

Pics of some of my favourite use of props/modifications and progressions for when I want to move but vinyasa is not the best option.

The spiritual community has some screwed perspectives about energy (and emotions for that matter). There’s a fault in our thinking if we expect to be high vibe all the time. Honour where you are at and mindfully support your shifts. Sequence in comments xx
