Laura Doebrich
Laura is a certified yoga teacher (RYT 200 in Vinyasa, Hatha, and Ashtanga and 60h Yin Yoga) and is currently completing her 300-hour advanced training.
With a lifelong background in competitive sports, she first came to yoga as a way to balance physical training - but quickly discovered its deeper impact on mind and body. For her, yoga is a way to reset the nervous system and connect inward, integrating asana with pranayama, meditation, and elements of yoga philosophy into daily life.
Her classes are grounding and balancing, with a focus on releasing tension in the body, creating space for both physical ease and mental connection.
Description
After-Surf Yoga
Gentle – Grounding – Restorative
All Levels | Also suitable for non-surfers
Whether you’ve just returned from the ocean or are simply feeling the need to slow down—this class is your invitation to unwind, soften, and reconnect.
After-Surf Yoga is a grounding and restorative practice that focuses on releasing tension from the muscles used most during physical activity—especially surfing, but also hiking, walking, or working long hours. Expect gentle stretching, breath awareness, and long-held poses that calm your nervous system and support recovery.
We stay close to the floor and move slowly—offering your body a chance to release deeply and rest fully.
It’s not about doing more.
It’s about doing less—and feeling more.
This class is open to all levels and perfect for:
• Surfers looking to stretch and recover
• Active bodies in need of softness
• Anyone who wants to relax deeply and restore balance
• Yogis who prefer a slow, mindful pace
No experience is needed. Come as you are—tired, salty, sandy, or simply curious.
🧘♀️ What to Expect
• A slow and supported floor-based practice
• Stretches for shoulders, hips, lower back, and legs
• Gentle breathwork & guided body awareness
• Calming transitions & moments of stillness
• A short lying meditation to close
