Lauren continues to be supportive even after the training with recommendations and guidance to ensure you transition to teaching smoothly. The training was amazing and I would recommend it to anyone looking to become an instructor or further their own practice. This training was well rounded, extensive, and life changing. I LOVE that Lauren brought in experts on the different aspects of yoga, such as kundalini, anatomy, and the chakras.
And, I love that we went on field trips to experience different studios and different instructing styles. All three of our main instructors, Lauren, Britanee, and Anna, were so knowledgeable and articulate, and really seemed to care about the growth of our own yoga practice, as well as, the development of our instructing skills. She allows all of her students to attend her future training classes, without further charge, to promote continued education, writes letters of recommendation, and passes on information about studios that are hiring.
I could go on and on. Bottom line, this training was simply outstanding and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to deepen their yoga practice or to become an instructor! Where do I begin? From the time I was a young kid into adult hood I never really knew what I wanted to do with my life. Not only did my body change for the better, but I found something I actually enjoyed. I had signed up to take her Barre Training and caught my first glimpse of the phenomenal knowledge she has to share. I had been taking Yoga classes with the incredible teachers at YogaLux and other places and had fallen in love with Yoga.
Again her energy is incredible. I LOVE that she brings in experts in the various fields that we were studying. Each expert brought something amazing to the table. You really get in depth information and hands on learning and it is all FUN! I really feel empowered to take what I learned and share my love of Yoga with others. The cherries on top of all these incredible life changing training sessions are the amazing relationships you gain through all this.
You are given tools and contacts to stay in touch with the other experts Lauren brings in AND Lauren herself. She stays in contact with you and makes sure you feel ready and have what you need to move on and share you knowledge and love. Lauren goes above and beyond.
I definitely feel like I know more now about all different aspects of Yoga, than I ever have before. You will not regret it. To have this knowledge all provided in a one day workshop was amazing. Very grateful for this experience and look forward to teaching Barre classes in the future.
The team of specialists involved in the training are wonderful and made learning so much fun. Lauren helped me to grow in confidence to graduate and be ready to teach even before I finished the course. We sang, we danced, we ventured out of the studio for lunch and beach photo shoot not to mention all the great swag that came along throughout. After completing the course Lauren has been active in helping with job placement and following up with how I am feeling as new Yoga instructor.
I would highly recommend this course and can not get enough of the beautiful studio where its located. Not only was it FUN, it provided such a well-rounded, challenging and motivating experience. I had difficulty finding a program that would be convenient — as I have two young children and a full-time job.
I learned about yoga, about my own teaching style, met amazing women, and so deeply enjoyed the physical, emotional and spiritual growth. We had many experienced teachers who guided us through workshops, classes, etc.
As yogis in training, we appreciated all aspects offered by Lauren; yet the opportunity to practice teach was notably valuable. This built-in feature greatly helped us to become more comfortable teaching. With such a supportive, interesting and experienced group of instructors participating in the program, I feel well-prepared as I begin to connect with the community and share my own vision, love and experience. If you are considering becoming an instructor or just looking to enhance your practice, I lovingly and highly recommend Lauren and her crew.
I truly enjoyed the program and will miss you a lot! Lauren quickly became my favorite teacher, as I loved her teaching style, full of appropriate challenges, positivity, and encouragement. When I had the opportunity to go through Barre Teacher training I was ecstatic to find out that Lauren would be my trainer, especially because I had always admired her teaching style and was excited to hopefully pick up few of her tricks of being an awesome teacher.
It was a very well organized few days of excellent knowledge covering everything there is to know about muscle groups, the best order of a successful class, and how to communicate and encourage our students, and so much more. Sometime after, I encountered her as my instructor in a Barre class at a yoga studio where she taught in my opinion, the best and most challenging Barre Sculpt class I have ever taken.
Little did I know that I would soon be lucky enough to work closely with her in the training and development of my group exercise team. Over the last few months, Lauren has led both Barre Fitness and Sculpt Training workshops for my San Diego team and has created a renewed excitement for these formats in my instructors. Lauren was incredibly accommodating in the scheduling of these workshops and was meticulous in the planning and execution. She led us through lecture, role playing, practice segments and actual workouts that were fun, engaging and very informative, making what was quite a long day seem like an eagerly awaited get-together with a dear friend.
Anyone who has seen Lauren has no doubt that this amazing woman practices what she preaches — her discipline and devotion to fitness is evident in both her physicality and her attitude. The kindness, patience and care that she exhibits, leads everyone who comes into contact with her to be inspired and empowered. After the workshops, I reached out to Lauren on a personal level for nutrition advice and was amazed to find that she immediately offered to evaluate my eating habits and design a nutritional program for both myself and my son.
Despite having the time demands and restraints that we all face with relationships, children and business, she eagerly and graciously helped me with my concerns. Lauren has been the catalyst for a complete turn-around in my nutritional habits and I have so far, lost over 10 pounds following her advice.
I feel fortunate to have met Lauren, a leader and role model, in the fitness industry, and am looking forward to working with her in the near future on several programming projects and the continued training of my teams in Orange County and Tucson. I wanted to add some other formats to my skill set, and was introduced to Body By Lauren through Chuze Fitness—and I am so glad that I was!
We helped each other learn! After the day was over, Lauren made sure that we all had her contact info and encouraged us to write out our own class plan that week; I did that and sent to her for critique. She is responsive and motivating. I now teach private clients in this format and they love it. I think about this every time I set foot in the gym. As a PE teacher, I think this training will help my students become proficient at the movement but challenged and interested with the modification.
Your support and reach out for our future needs as teachers is so assuring. I feel so lucky to know you as an expert resource! I really learned from her what I was missing. My students are really loving my classes and they are coming back for more! I am so happy I decided to attend your Barre training! I started to really feel changes in my body! I was getting stronger and it was amazing!
I look forward to attending your next Sculpt training! Thank you so much Lauren! Lauren is truly so inspiring, from Day 1 when I took her class she is a light of energy that her students cant get enough of. She is very professional, but keeps her classes fun at the same time. I am not going to lie, I was a little nervous about the Sculpt training, but she is so good at guiding you, and making sure to be there every step of the way. Not only can you tell she is prepared before class, she also always shows you ways to modify poses allowing for all levels.
Class goes by sooooo fast, its crazy. I feel very lucky to have such a beautiful and fit instructor show me how to instruct so happily like her! I love learning from Lauren. Thank you Lauren for everything that you do for us, and our bodies! Over the last ten years I had found myself taking an array of group fitness classes to expand my knowledge and push myself to new limits.

I even went so far as to get certified in cardio kick boxing. Lauren is by far the most inspiring and motivating instructor I have encountered in my fitness career. Her classes are incredibly challenging but she magically never makes it feel like work. Not only does she encourage each person in every class she teaches, but continues to push each one of us in a way that we want to work hard for her, to make her proud.
She takes the time to get to know each one of her clients and holds them all accountable in the best way; with a smile or a wink. I am so in love with her style of training that I asked her to teach me her craft and have since become certified to teach Barre myself. I am so excited to have met Lauren and know that she will continue to teach me more and as I continue to study from her and take every class that she offers!
Her class has been so inspiring to me that I felt I wanted to do the same for others. I completed the Body by Lauren Barre certification. I learned a tremendous amount and hope that I can someday inspire and motivate others to meet there exercise goals as Lauren has done for me. I have learned that it is possible to sweat and work hard while having fun at the same time. Lauren is able to take a very complicated class concept and break it down so it is very understandable and well-defined. Her knowledge and attitude toward Barre, Sculpt and Yoga are amazing and awe-inspiring.
I feel very fortunate to have been able to participate in her teacher trainings! Lauren inspired me to want to become a Yoga Barre instructor after meeting her for the first time and after taking only one of her classes, I was hooked!
I am not going to lie, I was a little nervous about the Sculpt training, but she is so good at guiding you, and making sure to be there every step of the way. This is a perfect course to learn the fundamentals of instructing, and like form and physical ability, instructing comes with practice. I finally felt like I was doing what I was meant to do and I could not be happier! The cherries on top of all these incredible life changing training sessions are the amazing relationships you gain through all this. Not only can you tell she is prepared before class, she also always shows you ways to modify poses allowing for all levels.
Lauren has pure super powers and I hope she will find a way to reach many more who will benefit from her healthy lifestyle and be able to improve their lives to reach their best possible health! Her training is both fun and challenging. Lauren Griffith has done it again, and in perfect timing! As an experienced spin instructor, learning barre, for the first time, was a new style for me. The opportunity to practice our learned choreography, from the position of an instructor, made the in-person training experience that much stronger. This is a great training that supports an even greater style class!
Thank you Lauren for bringing this class to us! My experience with the Agility Barre training was super positive and a fusion workout. Easy breakdown from beginning to end. I cant wait to start teaching my own Agility Barre class. I got such great exposure to each of the topics in training and had the opportunity to learn from so many knowledgeable people!
I gained confidence in my teaching and feel like I have to tools to take my love of yoga to the next level of teaching! A huge thank you to Lauren and all of the wonderful instructors she brought in! Lauren is such a supportive and encouraging teacher and leader. She led a very impressive intense summer training program that provided all the key fundamentals to prepare me to teach yoga with confidence.
The vast knowledge that the variety of guest teachers provided was an added bonus to what Lauren contributed. In addition to leading a very well organized teacher training, Lauren continues to offer support and guidance! On the first day, I was feeling timid and unsure if I would be a good fit to be a Yoga teacher. Where I have practiced the art of Yoga on and off for 15 years, I knew I loved it but was unsure I could actually teach it. Lauren and the rest of the staff here at Fortis Fitness and Yogalux really made the program obtainable and achievable.
I really enjoyed how each workshop had a different instructor. The instructors that were chosen were phenomenal. They broke down each topic with ease and poise. My experience was very well-rounded and worth every moment I spent away from my family. I made new friends and found a new passion in life.
By the end of the program I felt ready to teach and inspire! The women I met in my training are very dear friends today and we formed true authentic relationships with one another. The training opened my mind to empathy, compassion and passion which were areas I wanted to improve on.
The training was different each every day with good healthy surprises that we adapted to very nicely. In San Diego we live in the Mecca of Yoga, so the field trips were the best you could find in the Yoga world. Lauren, as my guided teacher, is dedicated and has been supportive from the very beginning and continues to be an unconditional support system that I can rely on.
I strongly recommend the YogaLux Yoga teacher training because the experience will provide you with a connection between your mind, body and spirit! The class accomplished so much in helping us tread new ground with an unfamiliar format and helped us refine our teaching and communication style. Moreover, Lauren listened to us and helped us connect our past fitness experiences to what we learned.
All this plus a kick-ass workout! I will be back for sculpt! Not only did I love learning the foundation of Barre, but also truly enjoyed being able to learn from Lauren. I appreciate how organized the whole training was and how Lauren broke down each exercise, had us practice teach and gave constructive criticism. I definitely walked away from the training way more excited about Barre, working hard to grow as an instructor and finding my exact niche career wise. I finally felt like I was doing what I was meant to do and I could not be happier! She brings in guest speakers that will open your eyes to so many different styles and studios so you can really find what style resonates with you.
Lauren continues to be supportive even after the training with recommendations and guidance to ensure you transition to teaching smoothly.
