Who Am I?
Hi! I'm Lauren, and I come to LA from the San Francisco Bay Area with a background in dance and musical theater. With a BA in Dance from UC Irvine, I continued my education at The Alvin Ailey School in NYC, where I was encouraged to become a certified GYROTONIC and GYROKINESIS trainer.
I was first introduced to the GYROTONIC Method through my professional dance career, as a means injury prevention, cross training and restoring my body from the rigorous physical and mental demands of dance. I quickly knew GYROTONIC Movement was not only essential to me as a professional dancer but would also be essential to anyone from any background.
I personally enjoy GYROTONIC Movement as a way to integrate both healing and fitness. I am passionate about seeing people learn movement patterns that will help them in their daily activities, and assisting with graceful aging, pain management and freedom through movement.
I have received advanced certifications in Osteoporosis, Pre & Post Natal, and Shoulder injuries & applications.
When not teaching, I love getting outdoors going hiking or camping, cooking with my husband, and trying out southern California's array of taco trucks! ;)
