You’ve come a long way baby

Or so they say.

But ask yourself a few of these pointed questions:

When was the last time you did something just for the pure joy and heck of it?

Do you have any interest in feeling more connected to your sensual self?

Is there anything missing from your love life?

Would you like more creativity at all levels in your life?

If you answer “yes” to any of the above queries, you may want to attend Lara’s “Yoga for Ecstasy & Pleasure,” (intermediate) to enjoy a fluid yoga flow, an activating breath practice, liberating movement and playful exercises as pathways into discovering new realms of embodied pleasure. The class explores different realms of pleasure including primal, emotional, sensual and spiritual.

Lara’s “Core Power Redefined” (foundational) is not about 100s of crunches to obtain a six pack. The class provides insights into to the subtle and intelligent dance between healthy alignment, breath and abdominal activation that defines true core power. Lara will guide students to learning how to use their diaphragms and inner corset or transverse abdomens for practice and daily life.
