Donna is a resident of Topsfield, and is the mother to three of her greatest teachers.  Her own yoga practice began at ABT YOGA in 2007 and has changed her life in extraordinary ways.  She received her 200 hour yoga training with ABT Yoga and is registered with Yoga Alliance.   Donna is also a graduate of Institute of Integrative Nutrition and appreciates their teaching of bio-individuality.  The connection of mind, body and spirit fascinates her, and has learnt that meditation is the porthole to this connection and practices regularly.  It is the deep felt gifts of yoga that Donna wishes to share with others for the growth, healing and strength, in whichever form it comes to them, in their own practice.

Jennifer Lauro is a Topsfield resident, and a Registered Yoga Teacher with Yoga Alliance.  Jennifer has been practicing yoga since the early ’90s and has been teaching at ABT since 2008.
As a full-time mother, lawyer and multi-tasker, Jennifer was initially drawn to yoga as a means both to reduce stress and to get into shape.  Her practice has evolved over time: Iyengar, to Bikram, to Power, but for the moment, Jennifer focuses on Hatha-style yoga.  She has come to appreciate the spiritual benefits of yoga, and believes strongly that yoga and meditation are essential to her own health.
Jennifer lives with a chronic illness, and is motivated to teach yoga so she can share the gifts of wellness and peace that yoga gives to her and offers to us all.

Wyndee has been practicing yoga and meditation for many years, but seriously returned to the mat after a physical injury in 2007. This motivated her to do the 200 hr teacher training program with Kim Valeri at Yoga Spirit. She particularly enjoys working with people who are new to yoga and adapting the postures to the needs of each person. Wyndee works with people who are facing major health issues teaching how the asanas can help you find the stillness among the challenges and chaos in their lives.

Anna trained with Ken Lidden at ABT Yoga, and received her 200-hour teacher certification in 2018.

Lesley lives in Boxford and is a Registered Yoga Teacher with Yoga Alliance.  She first turned to yoga after the birth of her first daughter – 13 years ago – in search of some relaxation and to provide a balance to some of the other fitness activities in her life.  Even in those early days she remembers having thoughts of teaching yoga. Yoga for Lesley is “like coming home to yourself”.  Through the practice of asanas, with the focus of the breath and through meditation she has discovered a deeper awareness that she finds helps her deal with the challenges of life.  It is this gift of yoga that she would like to be able to share with others.
