Yoga Teachers
Laura Feeney, Owner (BA International Affairs, American University of Paris; MSc Gender Studies, London School of Economics; YTTC Yoga Teaching Diploma; Birthlight Diploma; YTTC Certificates in Yoga for Back Care & Yoga for Muscles, Bones & Joints)
Laura started her movement career at the age of 2, when her mother put her in ballet to burn off some of the excess energy. After studying dance all over the US for 20 years - which also included her first introduction to yoga at University, thank you Pegge Vissicaro! - injury lead Laura to Paris. Two University degrees, 4 children and 3 country moves later, Laura returned to yoga in 1997 and has never looked back at any other form of exercise. Her classes are run with warmth, humour, fun, music and a passionate belief in the benefits of yoga. She credits yoga with saving her knees after years of all kinds of dance, gymnastics, aerobics, high heels and uneven pavements! Although influenced by all the amazing teachers she has had over the years, Laura MOST amazing teachers continue to be her students.

Erin is now accredited with the highly acclaimed YogaEd program, and looks forward to bringing the benefits of yoga to both children and adults.
Kindermusik
Geraldine Relph
Geraldine is a Licensed Kindermusik Educator and is excited to bring this wonderful music and movement programme to Mullingar. Geraldine grew up in Dublin, learning music from the age of 8. She has a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music from NUI Maynooth, and continued her studies at The Queen's University of Belfast from which she earned a Master’s degree in Twentieth Century Music. Geraldine has taught piano and guitar to children (and adults) of all ages in a variety of music schools and privately in Dublin and Westmeath.
In being a mum to two little girls, Geraldine has experienced first-hand how music has a thoroughly positive impact on a child's early development. Research has proven how early exposure to music develops neural pathways in the brain which in turn lead to better learning as children progress through school. Geraldine loves working with children, and believes that Kindermusik offers an excellent environment to introduce young children to music, providing the opportunity for you to spend fun time with your child, while also meeting other parents for a chat and a little extra support.

CACI NON-SURGICAL FACELIFT
Jill Reynolds
Originally developed 20 years ago to treat sports injuries, severe burns, Bell's Palsy and strokes, CACI has evolved into a non-surgical facelift. CACI works by gently stimulating skin tissues which in turn improves the elasticity of the face, increases oxygenation and the production of collagen and elastin in the skin. It is an effective way to reverse the ageing process and keep your skin looking healthy when use as part of an on-going maintenance programme.
