The Botanical Yogi, located in Galston, is a serene and inviting yoga studio that offers a feminine-based approach to yoga. Open to both women and men, The Botanical Yogi aims to create a space that encourages creativity, fluidity, and the opportunity to nurture, nourish, rest, and restore.
Led by Lauren, the founder of The Botanical Yogi, the studio is rooted in her love for and belief in the healing benefits of yoga and nature. Lauren's journey with yoga began as a way to manage the stress of working in the marketing world and quickly blossomed into a passion for the practise and its transformative effects. After completing her first teacher training in 2019, Lauren said goodbye to the corporate world and dedicated herself to sharing the transformative practise of yoga with others.
Lauren's teaching style is deeply rooted in the Shakti prana or Divine Feminine energy that exists within everyone. With training and experience in Vinyasa, Prenatal, and Postnatal yoga methods, as well as a passion for women's health and wellness, Lauren's classes offer a space for students to explore their own creativity, fluidity, and inner strength.
The Botanical Yogi offers a variety of pricing options to suit different needs. Students can choose to attend classes casually with a drop-in pass, or, for those planning to come more regularly, there are 5 and 10 class pass options available. The studio also specialises in Gentle Flow Yoga, Pre and Postnatal Yoga, and Women's Circle events, ensuring there is something for everyone.
The studio is located in the Galston Uniting Church Hall, in the heart of Darug and Guringai Country. The address is 11 School Road, Galston NSW 2159.

The studio pays tribute to the Elders past and present and aims to support true custodianship of the land through their work.
