Our Story
Sprouting Yogis came into creation in the fall of 2017-as a way to bring Laura's two loves together; yoga and education.
That's me, just relaxing. In my very own yoga studio!
I am an imperfect mother to two amazing humans, a supportive wife since 2006, a loyal sister, a resilient daughter, a mindful yogini, a devoted teacher, an advocate for peace, a lover of change, and a forever student.
I have my masters degree in Education and was a classroom teacher for 9 years. My love of teaching children has now combined with my love of yoga.
I am a registered yoga teacher, obtaining my 200 hour certification in April of 2014 and my Prenatal Yoga certification in January 2015 from Sanctuary Yoga Studio in Nashville, TN. I have a variety of training in children's yoga and development from The Asheville Yoga Center, Cosmic Kids Campus, and Kidding Around Yoga. In the summer of 2020 I completed my 95 hour Advanced Children's Yoga Training. Kidding Around Yoga is the style of yoga I teach everyday to kids that walk through the studio doors, and to the kids I travel to. Kidding Around Yoga "didn't invent kids yoga, they just perfected it". I am always looking for more ways to learn and improve my knowledge of yoga. I have been teaching adult and children's yoga for over 7 years.
Testimonial
This morning on the way to school, my 8 year old started talking about how much she loves Wednesday Yoga Club... how it helps her feel “stronger and calmer to finish out the week” and how much she looks forward to it. If that isn’t an endorsement, I don’t know what is! Sprouting Yogis is the best!
