Laureline is a hatha-trained yoga instructor, having graduated with the Life Centre in Manchester. She is passionate about how movement, breath, and mind can empower us to cultivate strength, stability, and confidence in our daily lives. Her classes emphasise breath-led movement, prioritising steadiness over speed. She advocates for inclusivity in yoga, breaking down the myth that flexibility is required. Her practice welcomes all bodies, using props and variations to support safe and enjoyable participation. Alongside yoga, Laureline is also a running coach. Through leading run groups, she creates an inclusive, supportive space where queer women and non-binary folks can safely experience freedom and joy through running, while building connection and community together. She believes yoga and running beautifully complement one another, empowering us to live the lives we want for ourselves. Whatever the medium, no one is left behind—whether on the mat or on the run.
