Lauren Alivia

Searching for healing, she found a home in the practice of Power Vinyasa in downtown Raleigh and the obsession was born. She graduated from One Heart Yoga just a year and a half after her first class in a studio and has since dedicated her days to learning and sharing the practice with depth and passion ~ studying Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin, Ashtanga & Rocket Yoga, Thai, hand balancing, partner acrobatics, meditation and breath work practices. As a teacher, Lauren has gained over 10 years experience in a variety of studios and gyms across North Carolina, Montana, Georgia and Puerto Rico - instructing students of all ages, goals, and experience levels. Lauren geeks out on anatomically sound movement patterns, alignment, mobility for functionality, and all of the many things the body is capable of. Her teaching methodology is rooted in helping students shed fear and attachments - to realizing that our greatest limitations are the ones we create in our own minds. When not teaching she can usually be found hanging out upside down, surfing or skating around the island.
