ABOUT

Over the years, Yogamoo has grown from a local Yoga company to a successful Training company who is passionate about helping school staff and support children in the areas of mental and physical wellbeing.

Yogamoo™ is owned and run by Laurence Turner.  Until July 2020, and for well over 10 years prior to this, Laurence was the proud business Owner, Manager and Lead instructor of Reigate Yoga Studio Yogamoo based on Bell St with a team of 10 well-respected Yoga Teachers and friends.

Together we cared for the need of our community of local students. Our ethos as a team has been to make Yoga approachable to all those who could enjoy its benefits.

As well as reaching out to a wider audience of children, Mums and Babies, teenagers, pregnant students, in and out the Studio, our presence has been extending to local schools, corporate companies and the NHS.

Laurence has been specialising since 2013 in the provision of Specialist Children Yoga Teacher Training Courses, Pregnancy Yoga Book, Suite of Yoga for Core Strength DVDs and Pregnancy Yoga DVDs.

In July 2020, having been closed for 4months due to COVID 19, Laurence made the difficult decision to relinquish the Studio premises at Bell St to continue to specialise in the following areas:

  • Specialist Children Yoga and Mindfulness Teacher Training with emphasis on Online Courses for Yoga Teachers, and School Teachers
  • Private Classes: face to face  1-1 sessions and small groups (individuals or organisations/corporate companies)
  • Group Yoga Classes: for individuals and organisations /corporate companies in-person or zoom

In the last few Years, Laurence trained with the following well respected Yoga worldwide instructors:
