Breathe In, Breathe Out 'Asana is that perfect moment when the body is utterly still, effortless; sensation and breathing suspend themselves so that time comes to a halt.
Then: happiness in a moment of infinity.'

It took me a little while to adjust to this new yoga discipline but now I’m beginning to understand it and am starting to feel the benefits especially in my legs. I also think that the relaxation session is well thought out and practiced and creates an oasis of peace in a busy world. Thank you

When I practice Iyenga Yoga, I spend time in the postures and continuously make the adjustments that Laurence suggests are right for my body. At the end of the class I feel relaxed, knowing that I have worked hard. When I then take the Vinyasa Yoga class, I am able to put into practice the learned adjustments from the Iyenga Yoga class, whilst flowing through the postures. I love the energy I get from Vinyasa Yoga.

J’ai beaucoup aimé le stage, surtout le fait que tu ais adapté le cours selon les besoins et respecté les niveaux respectifs des différentes participantes. J’ai beacoup apprécié aussi que tu ais pris le temps pour répondre aux questions. Il me semble que tu maitrises vraiment l’alignement correct des différentes postures, et j’ai trouvé tes instructions très précises, claires et utiles.

I would just like to say thank you for your help and I have enjoyed the classes and despite the problems with the old knees I feel much better and more flexible although I will never be able to attain the banana pose (I don’t know the correct name but I call it the inverted banana pose) without your help!!!!

I have really enjoyed the two classes I have been to
and look forward to more. I like the pace that you take us at – you
seem very aware of each students ability and happy to spend time
tailoring postures and focusing on ensuring that people are working
safely within their ability.

Biography 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.
