Hustle N' Flow (Line Dance)
Hustle N' Flow is inspired by the original Hustle, an energetic line dance where people perform a choreographed sequence of steps in sync with upbeat music, either facing the same direction or each other. Originating in the 1970s disco era, it combines smooth, rhythmic footwork with personal flair, and is part of the broader line dancing tradition that traces back to folk and European dances.

Restorative Yoga
Life can be challenging, right? Restorative Yoga is a magnificent practice that will help you get grounded, regulate stress and achieve well-deserved relaxation. During a Restorative Yoga session you will go over a series of deliciously slow-paced asana flow that nurtures the body with passive and gentle engagement of muscle groups, accompanied by soothing pranayama (breath practice) to calm the mind. Perfect for the end of the day.
Laura encourages students to embrace Restorative Yoga as a tool to achieve a sense of wholeness, finding love, kindness and compassion towards oneself.
