Webster - Owner & Director
Laura Webster is the Owner and Director of Omni Yoga Center.
Laura has been a Certified Iyengar Instructor since 1994.
She experienced many different forms of yoga including Bikram
and various Hatha yoga methods before deciding on the Iyengar
method. Laura found that the precision and alignment principles
of the Iyengar method helped her tremendously with the 2 herniated
discs in her lumbar spine, a torn rotator cuff in her shoulder,
and various injuries she had acquired from other experiences.
Laura began teaching Hatha yoga in 1984 and changed to the Iyengar
method in 1990. She has taught people of all ages, physical conditions,
and body types including professional golfers and other athletes
in the Kingwood/Humble area. She also has taught corporate classes
at Massage Associates and Wellness Center, at Quality Publishing,
the creators of Inside Houston Magazine, Vines Accounting
Firm, and at ExxonMobil. Laura has taken college level anatomy
and physiology to broaden her understanding of the body and how
it works. She has trained and continues to train with some of
the top teachers in the Iyengar system, including Geeta Iyengar,
as she endeavors to further her own yoga education.
Complementing her yoga training, Laura has taken courses in
Silva Mind Control, Quantum Physics, Body Talk, neuroscience,
energy medicine, and continues to study at Ramtha's School of
Enlightenment. She has served as Director of Sunday School and
President of the Board of Directors of Unity Community Church,
the first place she taught a yoga class. She has also done volunteer
work at Dr. Gerald Jampolsky's Center For Attitudinal Healing.
Laura graduated from Texas Tech University with a BA in history
and taught middle school and high school history. She also studied
at the Quad-Cities Graduate Center in Moline, Illinois. After
having 2 children, Laura opened Child's Play Drop-In Child Care
in the Kingwood Area and took care of preschool children and
toddlers. She also taught hunt seat equitation for 14 years.
She now resides in Kingwood with her family.
Britt Duque has studied yoga for the past 10 years. She has taken
courses in Kripalu, Hatha, Bikram, and the Iyengar method that
she continues to study today. Britt found yoga after it was recommended
to her as treatment for chronic neck pain. She now enjoys teaching
a variety of different classes including PACE, a flow style class,
Mamaste Prenatal, for new moms-to-be, and children's yoga classes
from 3 years through teen years (Half Moon Tots, Sun Circle Kids
and EXHALE). Britt is a mom to two beautiful kids of her own and
is ever grateful for yoga during her pregnancies. Her experience
teaching children includes children's swim lessons, downhill skiing,
and guided nature tours for kids. Britt enjoys the enthusiasm
and energy of children as they learn, experience, and grow with
new concepts. Britt is originally from Washington state, has a
BA in Economics and Political Science from the University of Rochester
in Rochester, NY and a Masters in Public Policy with a concentration
in International Regulatory Affairs from Georgetown University
in Washington DC.
