About And Now Yoga

Located at 152 W Long Ave, DuBois, PA 15801,
And Now Yoga, established in October 2021, is a small Yoga Studio offering public classes, private lessons and other wellness workshops. We share Yoga for A.N.Y body, all levels of practitioners, including Chair Yoga, Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, Hatha and Vinyasa based classes.

What does And Now Yoga mean, and why is it the name of our business?
It is the first Sutra in Patanjali's Yoga Sutras (the How-To guide on Yoga), which translates loosely into "And Now the exposition of Yoga has begun." And Now Yoga means to be fully embodied in an effort to unify the body, mind and spirit, finding the Yoga of each moment, knowing Yoga is a lifestyle of betterment and liberation and not a work-out program. It means to share loving kindness (first to ourselves and then unto others), staying active in the pursuit of self-knowledge and acceptance of oneself, and seeking bliss where bliss ought to be sought (everywhere).
Naming our studio after this idea proves to be a gentle reminder of these ideals,
letting Yoga and its magic of liberation permeate all aspects of our daily lives.

In our commitment to alignment, we don't believe in a "One Size Fits All" approach to sharing Yoga,
students can expect to be met where they are, sans judgement or pressure to perform.
You are already enough, and need not ever be "more."

Laura Beth ERYT-200
Owner of And Now Yoga

A 2019 graduate of Satya Yoga Teacher Training, LB has since received nearly 200hrs of training in different modalities, such as Chair Yoga, Yin Yoga, Kid’s Yoga and even more. LB utilizes the magic of the practice of Yoga to manifest physical strength, emotional control, and a deep connection with Source Energy as experienced through her own humanity.

On her journey of the practice of the Eight Limbed Path, LB offers teachings that support students both on and off the mat. Her classes infuse unique anatomical cues with philosophical ideas, inviting students to stay ever curious as they embark upon their own journey unifying their mind, body & spirit.
Tossing aside a One-Size-Fits-All mentality, LB has the unique ability to meet each student where they are in every moment, supporting and encouraging each student to find what works best for them in their body and their practice.


“My one goal in sharing Yoga is to honor our own individual human experiences, normalizing the multitude of ways in reaching the same collective goal –
Peace & Happiness.” 

Lauren ERYT-1000

Lauren began her Yoga journey at the age of 16, and then in 2016 completed her Teacher Training in Hawaii. In early 2024, Lauren completed an 820hr certification as a Certified Yoga Therapist with Purusha Yoga School. In exploring the Self through the study of Yogic philosophies, meditation, nutrition and even psychology, Lauren came to understand that even though life was out of her control, inside she had the power to harness this collection of tools to find peace, health & happiness.
 Lauren’s strengths as a teacher are easily expressed in her ability to create a container of love, allowing her students to show up as their most authentic selves, inviting each to drop their masks as “Human Doings” and join her in the art of “Human Being.” Lauren effectively holds space to permit a slowing down of life, inviting one to enjoy each sip of it, staying present with the thoughts of the mind, the voice of the body, and the energy of the Spirit. More from Lauren on this idea, “Yoga is more than just the movement, it is a lifestyle, it is our breath, the life force that moves through and within each and every one of us. I want to help you build up your tool box so the struggles of everyday life aren’t so taxing.”

 After a decade of practice, finding a tremendous amount of personal healing through Yoga, Lauren is still amazed at the wonders of this ancient practice and is fully dedicated to sharing this vibrancy.

Christina Pisani-Conway
MD, RPYT, RYT-200

The practice of Yoga has been a part of Christina’s life for over 25 years, continually helping her live her most authentic truth. Yoga encourages her to grow more flexible and fearless both on and off the mat. Her 200 hour training through the Satya School of Yoga and Children’s Yoga certification through Kidding Around Yoga have given her the tools to empower others to develop their awareness and gratitude with playful serenity. Her prenatal yoga training through Shining Light Prenatal Education has helped her unite her calling as a physician with helping others step into their personal wellness. She offers reiki as a first and second degree Usui/Holy Fire III Reiki practitioner. She has also trained in Ayurveda as an Ayurvedic Yoga Specialist and through programs at Maharishi University. Christina also has a special interest in sharing sound healing, having trained as a Sound Practitioner with Monique Mead. Her intention through sharing Yoga, Ayurveda, Reiki and Sound Healing is to support others to grow in areas that matter to them most. She shares a freedom through the relationship between body, mind and breath and supports others to live their most vibrant life. As Mahatma Gandhi said, “The future depends on what we do in the present,” and Yoga is a powerful tool to help us live with intention in the present. Christina is currently teaching Prenatal Yoga at Magee-Womens Hospital in Pittsburgh and is thrilled to join the And Now Yoga Community as a student and a teacher.
