About Lauren
Hi, I'm Lauren. I'm a San Francisco Bay Area based yoga instructor with a deep love for sharing the countless benefits of yoga. My flow-style classes are rooted in thoughtful sequencing and knowledge of proper alignment. My classes offer students the opportunity to reconnect with themselves through movement.
My Teaching Philosophy
My goal is to create a welcoming space where you can move, breathe, and come home to yourself. I lead with knowledge and compassion, offering classes intended to support both the physical body and inner self.
Training & Experience
I’ve completed nearly 1,000 hours of teacher training and continue to study with master teacher Mark Stephens. Over my twenty years of teaching, I’ve taught in gyms and studios, corporate sites, online, and one-on-one settings. Previous teaching sites include Yoga Tree of San Francisco, Equinox, the Jewish Community Center, Pfizer, and SAP SuccessFactors.
“Highly recommend”
Lauren's class is the one thing I look forward to all week. Her class has helped me heal back pain, balance issues, and stress. Lauren creates a very safe, calm, and inviting environment. I highly recommend her class!
“Brings love and heart to every class"
Lauren is a great teacher who brings love and heart to every class and every student. She integrates poses seamlessly into elegant sequences accompanied by beautiful music. I always leave her class feeling rejuvenated.
“A grounding force”
I have been practicing with Lauren for over 10 years now. She creates space for peace, healing and presence, and her classes were an incredible source of comfort during some tough times. Lauren is a grounding force. Her teaching is compassionate, authentic, and deeply nurturing—both for the body and the mind.
“Immediately relaxed and at peace"
The minute you walk into one of Lauren’s classes you feel immediately relaxed and at peace. She has a zen-like quality to her, coupled with a great class rhythm and perfect flowing poses. To top it all off, she most always has the best music playing in the background. I highly recommend Lauren’s classes.
Thoughtful & Supportive Sequencing
My classes are rooted in intentional sequencing, gentle guidance, and moments of stillness. My aim is to create a practice that’s supportive, accessible, and leaves you feeling more connected to your deepest self.
Years of Experience, Taught with Heart
I've been instructing yoga for twenty years and taught students in studios, gyms, private homes, corporate offices, and online. No matter the setting, I bring a calm and steady presence with the intention of supporting you on your individual yoga journey.
A Practice for Everyday Life
For me, yoga is about more than just movement. It’s a way to build strength, flexibility, resilience, and compassion that carries off the mat. Whether you join me in person or online, I hope the practice translates to you feeling more grounded in your day-to-day life.
