Laurel is known in Windsor for being the foremost prenatal yoga teacher as well as for her warm, gentle and compassionate approach to helping students enjoy being in their bodies. She believes that any student, no matter the level, can benefit greatly through yoga. She aims to make her classes accessible for all.
Laurel has been practicing yoga for 10 years and has recently begun diving deeper into her own meditative practice. She has trained with some really talented teachers. Her teacher training was completed at the Center for Yoga in West Bloomfield, MI (www.centerforyoga.com ). She has also completed Vinyasa teacher training and many intensives with Seane Corn (www.seanecorn.com) as well as assisted Seane with her teaching at national yoga conferences. Laurel has also completed her Prenatal Yoga training with Janice Clairfield (www.urbanyoga.ca). Laurel is now offering prenatal teacher training and doula services as well.
In addition to her yoga practice, Laurel is very involved in non-profit work. In 2009, she travelled to Cambodia with Seane Corn, Suzanne Sterling and twenty other beautiful yoginis to volunteer with the Cambodian Children’s Fund.

Laurel is now teaching yoga to at-risk youth in Windsor, Ontario and believes that bringing the tools of yoga to this population will give them the much needed tools to help improve their lives.
