Info Evening - 300hr Embodied Yoga Teacher Training January 2025
Meet Laura Wynne
Director of Aruna Yoga Academy and Studio
BSC, MSC, BA(HONS PSYC), EYT1000, IREST®, SOMATIC COACH
Master teacher, spiritual LEADER and Storyteller, a specialist in Embodied Somatic Yoga, iRest, Meditation & Yoga Therapy
"I am passionate about making yoga available to everyone, and I believe that whether you are a serious athlete or a “groovy granny”, whether you have limited mobility or superhuman strength - the beauty of yoga is that it is a personal journey. So, what you can't do… is irrelevant. Everyone can become stronger, more flexible, and enjoy more balance in their lives."
"Born a stress bunny, I was introduced to meditation while still in school, (Thank you, Mr. Levey). I discovered yoga in college in 1988 and have been practicing it ever since. In 1996 I trained in the practice of Transdential Meditation. I later studied with Yoga Therapy Ireland, initially as a yoga teacher and later as a yoga therapist. To my husband’s dismay, I am continuing my lifelong journey of further learning. I was one of the first teachers in Ireland to train in Yin yoga and in 2018 qualified from the first iRest® teacher training in Ireland, then went on to complete a further 3 years of study to become one of very few fully Certified iRest® teachers in Ireland. "
"I now specialise in Embodied Somatic Yoga. Initially completing a 500hr Advanced Teacher Training in Functional, Somatic, Embodied Movement, which traces how human movement is evolving and the inner blueprints to allow us to move with ease, grace, poise, strength, and balance. Later I trained as a Hannah Somatics Excercise Coach. I continue my training now each year with programs led by Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen of Body-Mind Centering® and Gill Hedley of Integral Anatomy. I have also trained with Leslie Kaminoff (Yoga Anatomy), Amy Matthews (Co-Auther of Yoga Anatomy, Director of Movement Practices & The Baby Project), John Sharky (Anatomist & Editor of The Muscle Book), and Tom Myers (Anatomy Trains). "
"In short, I Love Learning, and love discovering new ways to see what we think we already know or understand. And most of all I love sharing what I learn in a way that is useful and fun. This being human is an adventure, and I love being an explorer, and a storyteller."
Come and visit us online or in person at the Studio, take time out for yourself to relax and regenerate your mind and body. Or better still join us at the Academy, to explore & learn more about this being human.
