About Lauren

Lauren worked for 30 years in a school district in Maryland outside of Washington, DC.  She was a special education teacher for 10 years and a professional school counselor for 20 years.  Lauren discovered yoga 20 years ago when her son was frequently ill due to a delayed immune system.  It helped her reduce stress and anxiety while gaining physical strength and exercise.  Lauren received her 200 hour Registered Yoga Teacher certification in July 2019 with Breathe for Change an organization that promotes wellness for educators.  In September 2020 she obtained her Children’s Yoga teacher certification.  Currently, Lauren teaches yoga to adults and teens with diverse abilities as well as gentle yoga classes for adults. Lauren works with the following programs:

  • Prince George's County Park and Recreation Therapeutic Department

  • The Connection of Southern Maryland: A nonprofit that bridges the gap between high school and adulthood for individuals with mild to moderate intellectual developmental disabilities.

  • Yoga In Action: A nonprofit that provides yoga classes to individuals that would not typically access yoga. 

  • North Beach Senior Center

  • Private Yoga

  • The ARC of Southern Maryland

Lauren is passionate about making yoga accessible and fun to anyone willing to try it.
