your life is
your practice
Do you want a life that is more radiant, where your creativity flows freely because you are in touch with your inner truth?
Are you aspiring to integrate the gifts of your yoga practice into daily life? Are you interested in discovering ways to let your spiritual practice assist you with your life challenges? Are you ready to enter or deepen a process of self-inquiry that allows your unique self to emerge? Do you yearn for a safe space to explore?
In essence, do you want a life that is more radiant, where your creativity flows freely because you are in touch with your inner truth …. then you are ready for LivingYoga Laboratory!
So often there is a separation between our daily lives and our spiritual practice. Often yoga classes fail to offer us the skills, guidance, and support to make personal transformation a practical part of each day. This disconnection prevents us from tapping into the full potential of yoga and can even make one feel that ‘yoga isn’t for me’. In the LivingYoga Laboratory we know that a self-inquiring yoga is for EVERYone. We believe that ‘your life is your practice’ and that ‘doing your yoga’ all the time is not only possible but a profound avenue to a more vibrant, compassionate, and creative life on planet Earth.
LivingYoga Lab is a heartfelt invitation, a nourishing container, and a set of specific tools for you to embody and inhabit all of yourself.
Each day offers myriad events, challenges, tangles, and bumps on the road ...why not use them as a springboard for self-inquiry and spiritual practice! LivingYoga Lab is a heartfelt invitation, a nourishing container, and a set of specific tools for you to embody and inhabit all of yourself. I encourage you to bring all of you … the beauty, the muck, the deep feelings into your ‘on the mat’ practice. In turn, ‘radical self-allowing’ on your mat will feed the soil of your daily life. In the Lab, we take a curious approach, while being firmly supported by the age-old healing principles of yoga, so we collectively meet what life offers, more awake and alive.
Through the decades as a practitioner and teacher of yoga and other mind-body practices, I have come to understand that, just like life, yoga asanas aren’t to be “perfected”, but to be deepened and explored. I have seen that taking ownership of my practice has offered me freedom from the illusion that ‘truth’ lies outside of myself. I understand the frustration of getting “stuck” in your practice, not knowing how to adapt it to your unique needs, or losing your inner voice. I have been weaving the fields of psychology, yoga, somatics, dance, body-oriented therapies and restorative movement for 25 years and thus understand that the terrain of personal development requires an actionable framework and compassionate support. I honor your journey.

“Larisa is a skilled teacher and spiritual friend who weaves her knowledge into real and practical wisdom. Whether in a one-on-one session or a class setting she brings sensitivity, insight, and safety to the space. It is obvious that her devotion to movement and health are a priority. Each session I have experienced brings a restored and enlivened quality to my sense of wholeness. I am deeply grateful” — Deborah B.
Larisa is a truly gifted instructor and healer. Her knowledge of the body and movement is reflected in the way she teaches. She has a sharp eye and is able to offer solutions to imbalances and incorrect patterns that often lead to pain. Larisa’s “energy” is very powerful. I have worked with many instructors over the past 15 years and Larisa is one of the BEST. — Susan L.
