Larkin is a self-proclaimed Vinyasa Vixen who teaches accessible, inclusive, empowering, Body Neutral and Trauma Informed group and private fitness classes. Larkin began seriously practicing yoga as a means of coping with the stress of grad school and quickly came to realize that it was essential to her survival - on and off the mat. It is Larkin's hope that her students are able to cultivate all that she herself is able to uncover in her own movement practice - their courage, strength, resiliency, and sense of play - by getting out of their heads and into their bodies. For Larkin, these movement modalities are an act of reckoning and reclamation, and she would love to share these deeply liberative practices with you.
Larkin holds a BA in Human Rights & Cultural Anthropology from Bard College, where she “minored” in Dance (ask her what the quotation marks are about sometime!), and is a Masters of Science in Social Policy from the University of Pennsylvania School of Policy & Practice.
When not teaching, Larkin can be found exploring Maine with her daughter, husband, and dog, writing, or making art.
