With more than 4,000 hours of teaching experience, comfortably tailoring her classes to suit any intensity level; from those brand new to yoga to advanced practitioners she is able to target the perfect intensity level for each individual.

Lorraine is a master at Vibrational Singing Bowls therapy and sound healing using crystal and Vesak bowls, she has brought the calming effects of sound bath to Thailand, Nepal, Taiwan & Hong Kong. Originating in Tibet, this ancient practice of sound bath uses singing bowls to create vibration of various frequencies which help to release stuck energy, stiffness and tension in the body, the sounds permeate on a cellular level to provide healing effects. The vibrations entrain theta brainwaves (4-8 Hz) which induces deep relaxation. 

Her personal practice began more than 13 years ago from her first class she was dedicated to deepening her practice as she felt that defining effect she experienced through yoga was a balancing of her energy. She continued to explore the energizing effect yoga brought to her physically whilst having a relaxing effect on her mind. She knew that this is exactly what the city needed and was one of the pioneers to host private classes in 2005, this was when yoga was only beginning to be introduced in Hong Kong. She ensures each class brings that balancing effect, bringing equilibrium between the active and passive, the yin and the yang, components of ourselves by being present to what we need in the present moment.

Lorraine has recently been certified as a level 2 Reiki practitioner and can use this ancient art of healing by aligning the body’s energy to soothe and release chronic pain. Despite Lorraine’s experience she is always humbly learning to deepen her knowledge and yoga practice, her primary objective is centered around her students and maximizing the benefit her classes can have on them, she regularly attends workshops and intensive training courses with world renowned yoga masters in different styles and techniques.

She also holds a certification in Sivananda Yoga from Yoga Siromani which focuses on the core values of yoga to structure the practice to attain a lasting sense of well being.
