Yoga at Gravity Lab

Brian has been steady on the yoga path for the last 5 years since doing his 200 hour teacher training in India in 2018. He returned this past winter to complete his 300 hour teacher training in Ashtanga vinyasa / Hatha, And to deepen his knowledge of yoga philosophy (Yoga etymologically meaning an integrated, expansive state of consciousness.) Also being a passionate climber, Brian aims to create flows that open and integrate mind and body while helping to build overall strength that will support climbing.

Lauren started practicing yoga as part of her training regime as a varsity athlete in college. This practice eventually evolved from something purely physical into something that supported her mental, emotional and spiritual health in monumental ways. After various trainings in Hatha, Vinyasa and Yin yoga styles, Lauren has been sharing her love and knowledge of yoga with her community for the past 5 years. Her classes are centered on slow breath-based movement. Each class is unique and consists of functional and safe sequencing with the intention of enhancing strength and flexibility in both body and mind. All of her classes welcome all levels of practitioners, and many variations and modifications are offered to either spice up or mellow out the practice. Join Lauren’s classes for feel-good flows, as well as calming breath work and meditations.

Strength and Grace Flow: Balance and support your climbing experience. Cultivate inner strength through graceful, powerful transitions in sync with the rhythm of your breath and accompanied by inspiring music. Finish with deep stretches and restorative shavasana.

Kathryn (Kat) is a Chicago native and brand new to Colorado. She was trained at Hot Yoga Naperville 5 years ago and has been steadily teaching since. Her favorite styles to teach are 26&2, Vinyasa/Mix, Yin, and Restorative, and the more heat the better. The balance of movement and stillness and being able to sit with uncomfortable feelings is something she credits to yoga and tries to incorporate in her classes. In Chicago, she was also a Music Director at a School of Rock and still teaches private vocal and piano lessons. She came to CO because of how calm and healing the Earth feels out here, and the underlying silence that you can't get within the buzz of a city. Yoga is a very healing constant, both physically and mentally for her, and she mindfully aims to create an environment in each class where people can come and take what they need for that day and re-ground. Each day is different, and each class is a new chance to heal and reset.

As a “teacher”, I try to facilitate a space where people feel comfortable and safe (proper alignment cues). It is my goal to aid them in listening to their bodies, healing & hopefully feel better when they leave the room. At Gravity Lab I hope to focus on care for the hands, forearms, shoulders, hips, feet and everything else! People often “vibrate” at different energy levels and having the allowance of simple choices, modifications and experiencing less or more is important. This 2023 year, my focus is to be observant and go from there. Sometimes, there will be a backdrop of music and other times, I will invite time to drop into the sounds of our own breath and movement.

In my classes, I love to combine creative sequencing, a spirit of playfulness and a dose of inspiration to help you deepen your practice. I have been a student of yoga for over 20 years. My yoga practice deepened after an ACL tear while playing D1 lacrosse. My first trainings were with Baron Baptiste and YogaWorks in Paris, France which was mainly Ashtanga and Iyengar. Since then, I have studied with a variety of teachers and consider myself forever a student of yoga. It’s my Dharma.
