BY/ WITH Lara
-
A professional jazz dancer until her early twenties, Lara explored a variety of movement-modalities and pursued her dreams as a performing artist before earning a Diploma in Movement Arts and Teacher Training certifications from Yoga Alliance and The Aerial Arts Association.
Fascinated by the many forms + sounds found in nature, Lara’s creative process + movement practice is a reflection of the elements in her environment and their interaction with one another.
Nearing a decade of guiding in-person and online movement gatherings, Lara’s offerings via UPSIDE continue to demystify what it means to tune into our feeling-bodies.
