Lara Van Oerle

Lara is a yoga and pilates instructor, baby-waves surfer with a deep love for movement, travel, nature and meaningful connection. Her journey with yoga began at a young age, while exploring different movement classes – yet yoga stood out immediately. There was something about it that felt different, something that kept calling her back again and again.

Over the years, yoga has deeply transformed her life – mentally, spiritually and physically. It has shaped the way she meets stress, listens to her intuition, and moves through the world. Teaching yoga has since taken her across the globe, guiding diverse communities in studios and retreats in places such as Belgium, Australia, New Zealand, Sri Lanka, Indonesia and Morocco. Each experience continues to broaden her perspective, her practice and her sense of connection.

Lara’s teaching weaves together different styles – from stronger, more dynamic practices that cultivate discipline and focus, to meditation and yin yoga that invite stillness, softness and deep listening. She believes yoga offers many doorways, and encourages students to feel into what they truly need in each moment.

Her classes create space to reconnect with the body, quiet the mind and return to a sense of inner knowing – meeting yourself exactly where you are.
