Yoga has been at the center of Laura’s life for the last 20 years. She has studied and taught multiple styles of yoga ranging from Yoga Nidra to Ashtanga Yoga. Laura’s dedication and curiosity continues to guide her into further knowledge of the body-mind traditions of Yoga. Her love of language, chanting and philosophy recently lead her to complete a Sanskrit Teacher Training with Zoe Mai.
•
Laura uses her diverse yoga experiences to nuance her teaching method which includes variations, props, and inquiries in support of building a foundation that allows each student to experience confidence and joy in their practice. Laura creates a sense of belonging and community that encourages students to cultivate a relationship with their own unique and sustainable practice. The balance of observation, demonstration, and hands-on assists for each individual is a talent Laura has honed over her years of teaching.

💛 David Garrigues Yoga

Recently, in my Instagram stories, I have been inviting students to ask me questions and I’ve enjoyed responding to them so much that I’m creating a live version of my Asana Kitchen Podcast to further delve into your questions.
I’m calling it ‘Dear DG’ because the questions that I have been receiving from you fondly remind me of the famous Dear Abby advice column.

🔥You can submit your questions two ways:

1️⃣ By emailing them before the event to asanakitchen@gmail.com

2️⃣ During the live podcast

I’ll do my best to give you a bit of heartfelt, practical advice based on my three plus decades of practicing and teaching yoga. You can also just listen in without submitting a question.

👉🏽You need to REGISTER on my website to receive the zoom link.

Story-time was one of many special aspects of the teacher training experience with Tim Miller at the Ashtanga Yoga Center. After lunch we'd circle around Tim and listen as he read aloud his favorite excerpts of the Rāmayana, Mahābharata or Śrīmad Bhāgavatam. I keep this tradition alive with gratitude in my heart for those who came before.
•
Story-time and chanting meets on Saturdays from 7:30-8:30am just before the Mysore Style class. I am currently reading aloud from Ramesh Menon's modern retelling of the Mahābharata. This is followed by chanting a chapter from the Bhagavad Gītā. A HYBRID class, if you aren’t able to join us in-person at the studio, perhaps you can join us online via Zoom? No chanting experience required. Texts are provided. Everything you need to know to join us for practice in our new home at can be found at the Shala’s website. Link in bio.

Nataraja, Shiva as the Lord of the Dance, symbolizes cosmic cycles of creation and destruction as well as daily experiences of rebirth and death. The last few years have been hard but we rise nonetheless and take heart in new connections. The Shala has settled into its new home at . Breathing, moving, laughing and sweating together - picking up having never missed a beat (of Nataraja’s drum).

Welcome to the Tahoe Yoga Shala

Tahoe Yoga Shala is a vibrant yoga shala in the heart of the Sierra Nevada Mountains of South Lake Tahoe, California.

The very name, shala meaning “home place,” invokes the power and kindness that can be found at the studio. Nestled into a corner space at the Tahoe Keys Village business complex, those who come will cross over from the external world to internal resonance of a true yoga space. Locals and visitors alike are awed by the view of the boats swaying in the marina, a view which is only enhanced by the shelter of trees which wrap around one side of the building. The intimacy of space, diversity of classes, and generosity of the teachers create an opportunity for practitioners to breathe deep while moving in concert with the environs around them.

As South Lake Tahoe's premier yoga studio, Tahoe Yoga Shala aspires to be a home where students of all levels can direct their attention inward. There they can meet and greet the full spectrum of sensations, emotions, thoughts and beliefs that arise in the body-mind during their practice. At the Shala we cater to a wide range of experience with therapeutic classes accessible to beginners and athletic classes for veterans seeking to advance their practice. Be it stress reduction, fitness, self-awareness or like-minded community - the Shala’s 30 weekly classes offers something for everyone.
