This app is designed to liberate you on and off the mat. From powerful vinyasa flows to quiet yin classes, Practice Love will meet you where you are in the moment.
Audra weaves the esoteric teachings of yoga and mindfulness seamlessly with the personal, inspiring students to take the two wings of practice-- wisdom and compassion--into the simple moments that make up the content of their daily lives. She will guide toward your innate wisdom, tuning you inward through movement, meditation, and contemplative practices that honor your personal experience and preferences. There is no one answer, no right or wrong, no shoulds or shouldnts, only whats here, in the moment, and how we choose to meet it. No one knows you better than yourself.
Audra is an internationally known teacher of yoga, meditation, and philosophy. A dedicated practitioner and student of both Yoga and Buddhism, Audra brings delight, humor, compassion, levity, love, and a multi-faith perspective to her classes. The physical practice, whether sweaty and strong, or soft and slow, is an invitation into flow, where students have the opportunity to drop into the vastness and connect with the largeness that exists both inside and outside of themselves. All are welcome.

Audra is deeply connected to the fact that even the practice can become a trap and an identity, in and of itself--something else to shed. It is through humor, lightness, and not taking herself so seriously that she continues to to disentangle herself from spiritual materialism, the white supremacist hierarchy, the patriarchy, and the spiritual bypassing that is so prevalent in the wellness world.
Pre-Pandemic, Audra owned and operated a chain of highly successful yoga studios in Portland, Oregon--Love Hive Yoga, and Free Love Yoga. Currently, she continues to teach in person at The Peoples Yoga, and offers online classes with Free Love Yoga, her own baby company. You can catch up with her on her podcast and listen to her change her mind, think it over, and try again. Once a year, Audra teaches an international retreat, stay tuned for details.
Audra is busy working toward her graduate degree in clinical psychology with a focus on somatics at Antioch University, and will be certified as a meditation and mindfulness teacher with Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach in January 2023. Through this training she has connected deeply with the work of Sebene selassie and Konda Mason. She is grateful to her longtime, and steadfast teachers Manorama, Christina Sell, and Jasmine Tarkeshi.
