Meet Our Yoga Instructors

Laure welcomes all ages and fitness levels to her TriYoga® classes Friday & Saturday at 9:30am, Sunday at 4:30 pm, and Tuesdays at 6:30 pm.

You get personal attention in our small boutique studio.

Laure guides yogis in the flowing TriYoga practice that unites dynamic and sustained postures, breath and focus to create greater flow of energy. She uses props like blocks, straps and  bolsters to support your good alignment and deeper relaxation in yoga poses.

Laure earned her TriYoga certification through Mary Kemper and has trained with TriYoga founder, Yogini Kaliji.

Laure is a filmmaker, and President of LQ Consulting Video, PR & Community Engagement.

She served four years as a Cincinnati City Council Member, and led the Channel 9 I-Team for 13 years. TriYoga helped keep her sane and healthy. 

She lives in Mt. Lookout with Greg, Quinn and their chocolate lab, Lt. Dan.

Students taking Ava’s Gentle Yoga Flow class Wednesdays at 6:30 pm can expect a slower-paced, meditative lesson with an emphasis on deep stretching and building stability.  

Ava has practiced yoga—alongside pilates and various styles of dance—for several years. She began her yoga instructor journey in November 2025, and is GFI certified with the AFAA.

She is so grateful to Laure and her students for a warm welcome to the studio! 

Her classes are for everyone and are always judgement-free.

Originally from Indianapolis, Indiana, Ava is a third year student at the University of Cincinnati studying Rhetoric & Professional Writing. Ava enjoys listening to music, taking long walks, exercising, and going on coffee dates with her friends.

Mary Kemper is a senior TriYoga® instructor who introduced studio owner Laure and many others to TriYoga, beginning in 1994.  She has trained many instructors in our region to teach this method. 

Mary has studied closely with TriYoga founder Kali Ray for more than 30 years and completed the 500-hour level Vishwa Ayurveda training with William Brashear. 

Mary began yoga as a teen, studying with her mother Mary Louise Kemper, a founder of Cincinnati Yoga Teachers Association.

When Mary fills in at TriYoga with LQ it's truly a treat for our yoga students.

Maureen Brenner has more than 10 years of experience teaching yoga in the greater Cincinnati area. 

Maureen teaches Hatha Yoga for All Levels.   She is a frequent substitute instrucetor at our studio. 

Students will enjoy her creative class that focuses on a variety of poses, paired with deep breath work.  Each and every yoga class is different.

All levels are welcome as she will provide modifications to meet the needs of the student. 

In addition to teaching yoga, Maureen enjoys spending time with her family, playing Pickleball, traveling, boating and watching sports.   

She and Laure often play pickleball together!
