LAUREN MCLAUGHLIN

Lauren has been practicing yoga for over 20 years and teaching for a decade. Her classes are rooted in alignment, mindfulness, and embodied awareness—drawing inspiration from her deep background in martial and internal arts, including Praying Mantis Kung Fu, jiu-jitsu, tai chi, and qigong.

Originally from Canada and raised in Texas, Lauren has lived on Lake Travis since 2018 and now teaches at Ritual North Shore. Her teaching style is both grounding and expansive, combining intelligent sequencing with a focus on self-inquiry and presence. In Lauren’s classes, you can expect to explore new movement patterns, build strength and resilience, and leave feeling nourished—body and mind.

Lauren holds a BA in Developmental Psychology and an MA in Community Psychology. Outside the studio, she enjoys practicing yoga and martial arts, cooking with her wonderful husband, and paddle-boarding on the lake.
