 Lauren Scruton, dancer
Picture
 Lauren turns towards many methods to occupy, nurture, and express through her human body. She lived estranged from her body for many years, until her late teens, when she was introduced to Yoga.  She has since continued to practice and study with many teachers and guides active in the art of Hatha Yoga, primarily in the Vinyasa Yoga lineage. The time Lauren spends in the practice of Yoga, both as student and teacher, have helped her to acknowledge the relationship between the form and formless as alive and tangible in the breath. The awareness and sensitivity first fostered in her Yogic practices are too present in her newer relationships to dance and authentic movement practices as well as in her studies in  the body-oriented Therapeutic model of Somatic Experiencing. 

Lauren began casually dancing with KSAMB through the (ongoing) public event Not Church, Just Dance in 2016; her participation became much more critical and consistent during the government restrictions in response to the Co-vid 19 pandemic. The opportunities to move and respond to energy in a group, outdoor setting was needed in all aspects: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. In many ways her time apart from others served her recognition when in company of the vital importance of human connection and in that the varied joys and tricky challenges of relationships. Through involvement with KSAMB improvisational dance has become one of the languages through which Lauren has fostered a connection to shared life; she holds respect for all the potentials in personal, interpersonal and interdependent layers of communication that can lay dormant within and… if given safe space to, can also thrive!
