You can expect to gain a strong and stable foundation in Sophie’s classes, with opportunities to build and progress your practice.

“My journey inward through yoga informs the outward expression of myself in everyday life. It goes so far beyond a movement practice, but rather a way of existing and relating to the world around me. I love the humbling nature of yogic philosophy and the realization that the more you learn, the less you know. It is a never ending process of learning and self inquiry that I am honoured to share with others.”

Do you have a mantra/quote that you often turn to?

“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”
— Margaret Mead
“Nature does not hurry, and yet everything is accomplished.” — Lao Tzu

How do you fill up your love tank?

Walking in nature, time with my loved ones, reading, being creative, and quiet alone time.

What advice would you give someone wondering whether to try yoga for the first time?

Enjoy the experience for yourself and don’t be concerned with what everyone else is doing. Yoga is a deeply personal practice that does not need to be measured by external accomplishments.

Laurens's Story

A Legacy of Love

Lauren discovered yoga while running a PR agency in Melbourne. It awakened her soul and changed her path forever. She went from student to full-time teacher in just months, eventually opening multiple studios across Australia and launching A Live Yogi—the country’s first live online yoga platform.

As a speaker, teacher, and community leader, Lauren inspired thousands. Her mission was simple but powerful: for everyone to experience the life-changing benefits of yoga. For her, yoga wasn’t something you do—it was something you are. Like water, it becomes essential to life.

Lauren’s life was marked by authenticity, joy, and a deep sense of service. In 2022, shortly after giving birth to her daughter Lucinda, Lauren tragically passed away due to a rare complication. Her spirit lives on through her daughters, her husband Ryan, and the Zenko community she so lovingly built.

Her dream was to help every person uncover their purpose and live fully, courageously, and with heart. Zenko Yoga continues this mission—helping you connect with your true self, one breath at a time.
