Can you teach Yoga to children via television? Some BBC producers seem to believe it. Fortunately the reporter remains himself sceptic suggesting new TV series Waybuloo is only just another way of entertaining children.
Laurence qualified in Vinyasa Yoga with Gérard Arnaud, Paris, in 2008 after 12 years of regular practice in the UK, Japan and France. She also qualified in Pregnancy Yoga with the British Wheel of Yoga in 2011. For her own practice, Laurence regularly attends workshops at the Iyengar Institute in London and in Oxford.
Opened to various styles, Laurence has a preference for Vinyasa sequences which involve connecting postures with breath-synchronised movements. As a teacher, Laurence is aware that Vinyasa can be too strong for complete beginners or students with a medical condition. Her close experience with Hatha Yoga and Iyengar "styles" allows her to adapt her practice to mixed abilities. Her classes are up and running in South Oxfordshire, where she lives with her husband and three children. She loves teaching and hopes to share all the benefits she gets from yoga with her students.
