STRONG BODY, CALM MIND, EMPOWERED LIFE...

Helping Women Thrive Through Movement & Mindfulness

I believe that movement is one of the most powerful tools for managing stress, improving strength, and feeling your best—especially during life transitions like perimenopause. As a Personal Trainer, Yoga Instructor, and Clinical EFT Practitioner, I help busy women incorporate effective workouts, mindful movement, and stress-relief techniques into their daily lives.

With a holistic approach, I focus on building strength, balancing hormones, and reducing anxiety—because true health isn’t just about fitness, it’s about feeling good in your body and mind. Whether it’s a 20 minute strength session, a grounding yoga practice, or EFT tapping to release emotional blocks, my goal is to provide tools that help you feel stronger, calmer, and more energized.

My mission is simple: to empower women to move, breathe, and live with confidence - no matter their schedule or stage of life.  Let's create a routine that works for you!

EFT is a simple yet effective way to reset your nervous system and feel more grounded. Let’s tap into a calmer, more confident you!



Testimonials

I really enjoy Laura’s Friday morning yoga class. The relaxed online format make it easy to participate and the focus on stretching and joint mobilization is a great way to release stress after a full week. I always feel lighter and more focused when we are done.  ~NL

Have absolutely loved joining Laura’s Friday morning yoga class. Each session is thoughtfully designed, offering a perfect balance of challenge and relaxation. I’ve noticed improved flexibility, better posture, and a much calmer mind. It’s the highlight of my week, and I can’t recommend it enough for anyone looking to reduce stress and improve both their physical and mental well-being.   ~SR

Hi Laura, I've been feeling so much better about myself since our session on Friday and I lost a couple of more pounds too! :)  Thanks for all of your support, EFT IS MAGIC!!  ~ED

I’ve done both movement and EFT tapping with Laura in a group setting and she is so kind, approachable, and patient.

She really works with you as an individual to come up with sayings that you can wrap your brain around and guide you to feel what is going on in your body and mind during your hangups.  With movement, she is wonderful at allowing you to make modifications as needed and just getting you to start moving rather than making you fit into a little box of “you must work out hard for at least 30 minutes to see any results”. Because whenever I’ve tried that in the past, I end up quitting.  Laura’s approach toward health and mindset clearly comes from a place of experience and heart.  I cannot recommend her services enough.  ~LL

To be honest, I’m surprised at how much I am enjoying Laura’s yoga class! I have very little experience with yoga and was worried (intimidated!) by starting but liked the idea of viewing/participating from the comfort of my own home. Her guidance is easy to follow and she encourages you to do what works for your body and what is comfortable. I know my balance has improved (didn’t know it was that bad lol) and overall flexibility. Still a long way to go but i look forward to the classes and feel a sense of accomplishment when done!  ~KM

Before trying tapping, I had a sugar addiction, hardly moved my body, and had gained a pile of weight.  I felt sluggish and gross and exhausted all the time.  I have had so many shifts in the last several months after tapping & exercising with Laura.  With her guidance , I have been able to make some deep connections  about some resistance I was holding about creating new healthy habits.  I have been able to create new habits such as looking for joyful movement instead of viewing exercise as a punishment,  becoming part of the 5 am club,  having  time to meditate, make a healthy breakfast and move my body daily.  I cut out sugar successfully , lost 15 lbs by just doing that, and it now feels  so easy to maintain that habit.  ~MH

Working with Laura has literally changed my life. I had surgery after an old injury which I had hoped would solve all my problems but I was so out of shape that I still couldn’t do all the activities I wanted to do with my kiddos. As a result, my boys never got to see that once athletic side of me. I basically gave up and resigned myself to the fact that I would never get to experience that lifestyle with them. Last year, one of my friends (who has been going to Laura for years) encouraged me to join some of Laura’s sessions. I decided to give it a try and it was one of the best decisions in my life! Long story short, my family and I bought downhill ski memberships last winter and we finally skied together (well, they are slightly more adventurous than me but that’s old age wisdom, not capability!), and we go hiking and biking and I can usually keep up with them and do the harder trails again. Next up is re-starting tennis although I now play pickleball with friends and am really enjoying that! I also have to mention that to top it off, not only can I do these things, but I am pain-free during the activities and, also, the next day!  Thank you, Laura, for being so supportive and non-judgemental and I look forward to continuing to work with you!  ~JF

I am a working mom with two young boys, so needless to say, my days are stressful and exhausting, the majority of the time. In the past, “self-care” didn’t really exist.  Late last year, Laura came along and helped me to realize how important it is to step away from my work (and family at times) and make time for myself – without feeling guilty.  Our meetings are a combination of strength, cardio and mobility and a lot of fun!  The time flies by and I forget all about my stress and worries, even if only for the hour.  Little by little, these sessions are helping me change the way I think, feel and deal with my busy life.  Thanks Laura – you’re the best!   ~BB

I love my sessions with Laura, from both a physical and mental perspective. I have a very busy mind and a very busy life with work and two young kids but working with Laura allows my mind to calm and stop overthinking. She pushes me where I wouldn’t push myself but also allows me to embrace what my body can do in a healthy, positive way. Since working consistently with Laura, I have found that I’ve been able to bring a lot of those skills and learning into my everyday life through my focus on breathing, learning to let my mind rest, keeping my body moving more regularly, and making the time for it. There are always going to be challenges in having the time or energy but by spending the time with Laura I feel more positive and have a lot more energy.   ~AC

Laura’s yoga classes are great. The class length is perfect—long enough to feel like you’ve had a thorough workout without being overwhelming. She has an incredible ability to remind you to breathe at just the right moment.  She gently points out small adjustments that make a huge difference in maximizing each stretch. The class is accessible to all levels, and I’ve already noticed an improvement. Highly recommend!   ~KL

Before starting to work with Laura, I struggled to move consistently.  I did not have the discipline to show up for myself regularly.  Laura = accountability and a safe place for me to be me.  Laura is not only a fantastic personal trainer but also an excellent listener.  And THAT makes the workout days that much more effective as body and mind are intertwined.  The days I go and workout with laura, I feel like I manage to reset my body and mind.  The consistency has been the key to turning my workout routine into a habit I don’t ever want to break.  I need these ‘resets’ to live my every day life with more clarity and ease.  Thank you Laura, for doing what you do because you are making a difference in my life.  ~AI

For many years I've been up and down with my weight and with training. Between work, and kids and everything else in life, I find that I always put myself last and don't make any time for myself unless I have "that" appointment. That appointment with Laura that hold me accountable and gives me the time I need for myself. Mentally, physically and there are days emotionally.

My time with Laura is MY TIME.

For many years I was only training 1x a week but over the last few months, Laura partnered me up with another mom and we bumped up our training to 2x a week. Laura understands how life as an entrepreneur is challenging and then adding the mix of a mom, who has time? She thought that going to 2x a week would benefit me in more ways than just my muscles. The additional training is amazing. We hold each other accountable, we push each other to go longer, harder, with heavier weights. There is no competition, just 100% support for one another. I am also finding myself doing walks on my own, or if I miss a work out I make it up and I am holding myself accountable now.

Thank you Laura. I am so grateful having you in my life.  ~SS

I've been attending Friday morning yoga class for a few months now, and it's been an incredible experience. Laura creates a welcoming and supportive environment, and has helped improve my flexibility, balance and mindfulness.

As someone who has recently moved into the 50+ club, I really appreciate how Laura offers variations, making it accessible yet effective for all levels.   ~SW

Laura is an amazing yoga instructor. I love her Friday morning classes. After each session I feel refreshed , energized and ready and ready to take on the day. Laura is incredibly supportive and welcoming for beginners and individuals in all body types, including those of us in bigger bodies. I always feel encouraged and empowered in her class. Highly recommend!   ~MH
