My daughter has been a yoga student of Ms. Kirtan for 15 years now.  She has cerebral palsy and needed yoga to help her with strength and balance.  Ms. Kirtan has helped her with her physical strength and mental strength, and built up her confidence and self esteem.  She is a wonderful, kind, compassionate teacher and a beautiful human being.

Kirtan makes you feel welcome and supported; no matter your yoga experience, abilities, age or flexibility.
And finally, she is funny! I always leave a yoga class lead by Kirtan feeling a little better about life.

Kirtan has taught with Yoga Yoga since 2004 … it never fails that when I see, talk to or even just get an email from Kirtan, I smile and it makes that moment bright. Thank you to Kirtan for all that you do as a teacher, mother and in our community.

Studying with Laura was a big draw for me. Not only her years of experience teaching Kundalini/Hatha yoga within the field of addiction, but also her light hearted "take what you need" approach to practicing yoga, meditation and self care.
