Laura's Story


Amid the 2020 lockdowns, five days after Kenya opened its borders, Laura Bunting embarked on a journey to the East African Coast. As the world embraced virtual connections, Laura taught her students yoga online from wherever she was. One month into her stay, Laura travelled from the Kenyan coast along the red dirt roads to Tsavo East National Park, where she has lived for the last 3.5 years.
‍
Laura spent her days exploring the untamed landscapes of Kenya, immersing herself in the beauty of the wilderness and the captivating wildlife that calls Kenya home. During this time of exploration, She Learned about the intricacies of the wilderness—its beauty, wildlife, and the critical importance of preserving these few wild spaces that remain on our planet.
‍
The Wilderness changed her life in countless magical ways. This personal experience led to a spark of inspiration which ignited in Laura's mind—a vision of crafting immersive Wildlife and Yoga experiences that would intertwine healing, human connections, and the splendour of nature.
‍
And that's how Wildlife & Yoga Retreats was born.

"Something you can't put a price on."

It's not just the yoga, it's not just the breathtaking surroundings, it's not just food or people. Wildlife & yoga retreats are all of the above and more, together forming an extraordinary blend that creates an extremely curated and unique experience. It is yoga tailored intuitively to the needs of the day and the group at every lesson. It's a journey back to yourself and to our very best essence, being in harmony with nature. And It's having the privilege to learn from people whose experiences and knowledge of this part of the world are something you can't put a price on. It really is beyond words & once you have been, you'll keep wanting to go back again and again.

"Laura’s Wildlife and Yoga retreat was literally life-changing!"

Laura has a kind, empowered, and inclusive approach to yoga that melds itself to everyone and welcomes different people to show up in their bodies and in their lives as they truly are; It’s a gift. She has a caring super power and goes above and beyond to ensure that you feel seen, supported, and valued, using the tools of yoga to intuit the needs of her group. I cannot recommend Laura Bunting Yoga enough, especially for those needing a return to themselves during these tipsy-turvy times 💓

"This entire retreat felt like a dream!"

From beginning to end this entire retreat felt like a dream! So many personal touches to every single aspect of every single day made this one of the best weeks of my life. Laura took the time to put together welcome gifts for each person and a menu that was absolutely expertly curated with fresh fruits and vegetables and nutritious items right down to desserts. Each yoga experience was very personal and rejuvenating finished by fresh juice and time together watching wildlife. Laura’s positive energy is absolutely palpable and contagious. I cannot wait for our next trip to Nairobi and our next yoga retreat with Laura. 🖤

"Once in a lifetime experience"

Highly recommend! The yoga and wildlife retreat is beyond anything imaginable. On our first day we had a yoga class and an elephant walked by right in front of us 🤯 where else would you experience that? The food and people are absolutely lovely. Laura is one of the best yoga teachers I’ve ever had. If your looking for a once in a lifetime experience then I don’t know what your waiting for. I will definitely go again. 😍
