"I still can’t help but be filled with so much gratitude, love and happiness. Lauren Rudick brought together a new family through her yoga teachings and joyous light and openness as a person. I’m so glad to have met and learned from her. I’m so glad to have learned from every single person I met there. So many laughs and good times. What an amazing week. I left with a new outlook. I feel refreshed and focused on what I want in life."

"A six-day yoga retreat with Lauren Rudick – the twinkly eyed Canadian renowned for her practical and light-hearted approach to the discipline promised everything I could of wished for. Meditation, yoga and travel in a city bursting with magic and mystery. There was also a chance of meeting ten other women with the same interests, who like me were on a mission to find more balance in their lives. I had no idea what the journey would entail but this was the challenge. Instinct told me to take a leap of faith... ....Lauren’s main goal is to practice love while practicing yoga – something she radiates in every form from the moment she wakes up in the morning – and to push your-self without punishing yourself."
