Hi, i am Lauren!
I initially practiced dynamic styles like Vinyasa and Power Yoga, but as I deepened my practice, I realized I needed to balance my Yin and Yang energies. This led me to explore more mindful practices, including Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, meditation, and pranayama. These practices profoundly transformed both my personal journey and my approach to teaching.
I’ve been teaching yoga since 2012, and I believe that to be a great teacher, you must first and foremost be a student. I continue to learn through teacher trainings across various styles and love sharing what I’ve gained with my students. As a co-lead of the Yoga Bliss 200-hour YTT, I bring a blend of experience, passion, and dedication to all my teachings.
I’m so excited to share my love for Yin Yoga with you and look forward to guiding you on your journey into stillness, mindfulness, and balance.

NUSA LEMBONGAN
This course will be held at Yoga Bliss Lembongan, located on Nusa Lembongan island, 30 minutes away from Bali by boat. As a lot of travellers say Lembongan is similar to what Bali used to be 20 years ago. White sandy beach, blue clear water, quiet and a perfect spiritual place. This island paradise begin to be a must to visit from Bali away from the traffic jam or the hawkers. A perfect place to relax, where the only things to do are diving, snorkelling, surfing, sunbathing and of course yoga.
THE SHALA
Yoga Bliss is in the heart of Nusa Lembongan close to all commodities. The beach is only 5 minutes walk away, but as you will see everything is really close on the island as its size is approximately 7km².
We have two beautiful shala: one indoor shala with air conditioning and an equipment room (for our mountain of props) and an open air shala equipped with props and fan to enjoy the wind.

FOOD
Food is important as it’s what keeping us functioning. We choose what we eat but sometimes we loose track and it can be hard in our busy world to take care of ourselves.

The Restaurant is located just at the front of the shala.
