WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

Lara is a gifted teacher able to lead by both instruction and example, with a healing touch and common sense. Many yoga teachers have elements on that list, but Lara has the whole package!

It is very obvious that Lara has a true passion for this, truly cares about sharing her passion for it with all of us. One can tell that she has a vested interest in seeing each & every one of her students succeed & gain the benefits of practice. More than that, she does not try to push people beyond their capabilities & treat it like an aerobics class (like some “yoga instructors” that I’ve heard about), but rather makes you strive to get the most out of what you can personally do…& then makes you go a little further each time. She is a blessing & we should all be very grateful to have her among us.

When I first came to Lara everything in my life was heading in a myriad of competing directions. I was very stressed, reaching a sort of critical mass in regards to both personal and professional balance. I had lost my sense of center, there was no inward peace or place in which to turn. I felt restless, tense and displaced. I knew something had to give.

With an intuitive, inspired and supportive spirit Lara has helped me regain control over my life. She is a wonderful instructor who possesses great patience and understanding. Yoga is now the core of my day, creating an inward calm and focus that permeates everything I do. It has given me new found physical confidence as well as renewed mental clarity. Most importantly yoga has given back to me, simply speaking, myself. But not only that, a new improved self – and that’s probably the best and most fulfilling gift of all. I am deeply grateful to Lara and Land Yoga for helping me untangle all the ‘knots’ I had created. I feel great everyday, even when life is less than agreeable!

I had tried coaching models before that were expensive, ineffectual, and ended up being rather lecture-y and blame-y. Because of this I was very hesitant to enter another coaching dynamic, but I knew that Lara and I had aligning values and knew I could trust her to hold my truth and help me make meaningful evolution happen. She uses specific, action-oriented planning, is always realistic, validating and empathetic. She is also generous to commiserate and share things that have been a challenge for her as well, validating my experience, and then helping to form a system of organization to overcome that challenge. I cannot recommend Lara’s coaching program enough.-

I smile immediately when I think about Lara! I think she will continue to have this effect on me throughout my life. She is just a bright light that brings a sense of peace to my mind when I think back at our coaching sessions. I hope to see her soon so I can hug her to show her my gratitude for all she has done for me. Lara – thank you!!

It was very comforting talking to Lara. I felt comfortable to share my fears, thoughts and anxieties with a “stranger” over the phone and did not feel judged. I was able to speak to Lara and she did not tell me *what to do*. At the end of the call, there was always a plan with what to do for the following week. Lara was able to give me confidence to brainstorm ideas and situations that may be easier for other people. I couldn’t thank her enough, and I’m so grateful for the opportunity.
