Jennifer Lauro, RYT
Jennifer Lauro is a Topsfield resident, and a Registered Yoga Teacher with Yoga Alliance. Jennifer's yoga practice seriously began 10 years ago, although she does remember practicing yoga poses at the age of 4 from a book that her mother bought in the grocery store!
As a full-time mother, lawyer and multi-tasker, Jennifer was initially drawn to yoga as a means both to reduce stress and to get into shape. Her practice has evolved over time: Iyengar, to Bikram, to Power, but for the moment, Jennifer focuses on Hatha-style yoga. She has come to appreciate the spiritual benefits of yoga, and believes strongly that yoga and meditation are essential to her own health.
Jennifer lives with a chronic illness, and is motivated to teach yoga so she can share the gifts of wellness and peace that yoga gives to her and offers to us all.
Lee Anne Pellegrini, RYT
Lee Anne is a resident of Danvers, has a Masters in Social Work and is a Registered Yoga Teacher with Yoga Alliance.
She also is in her final months of training preparing to be a Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy Practitioner. Her other specialized training is as a Life Force Yoga Practitioner, a practice that combines breathing and gentle yoga to help manage one's moods and energy.
As a trained social worker, Lee Anne was drawn to yoga because of its therapeutic qualities, with it helping her to manage her stress, mood and energy. After sustaining a broken ankle that required years of rehabilitation, she decided to formally pursue yoga to improve her strength, flexibility and range of motion.
Lee Anne loves to teach those new to yoga and also has been teaching yoga to seniors. She focuses on a style that is gentle and nurturing. Lee Anne considers yoga as an integral part of her life and loves to share it with others.
Lesley McCormick, RYT
Lesley lives in Boxford and is a Registered Yoga Teacher with Yoga Alliance. She first turned to yoga after the birth of her first daughter - 13 years ago - in search of some relaxation and to provide a balance to some of the other fitness activities in her life. Even in those early days she remembers having thoughts of teaching yoga. Yoga for Lesley is "like coming home to yourself". Through the practice of asanas, with the focus of the breath and through meditation she has discovered a deeper awareness that she finds helps her deal with the challenges of life. It is this gift of yoga that she would like to be able to share with others.
