What is INNER by Lau

Last reviewed: 3 October 2026

What is INNER?

INNER is a mindful movement and holistic training methodology that connects strength, breath, posture and emotional wellbeing.

It's not just about toning the body or practising yoga. It's about learning to move better, activating the deep muscles, building strength from the centre and reconnecting with your own body.

Your strength comes from within. Mindful movement. Deep strength. Inner balance.

Who is behind INNER?

INNER by Lau is the project of Lau (Laura Martínez Arjona), founder and instructor. Full biography.

INNER was born from this philosophy: learning to feel strong on the inside so you can move on the outside with more awareness, balance and confidence.

What is The INNER Method?

The INNER Method is based on five pillars:

1. Centre and deep muscles: Working from the body's centre, mindful activation of the abdomen and core control are pillars of the method. The «navel in» principle represents the attention and control that accompany every movement.
2. Toning and strength: Build strength, endurance and muscle tone through controlled, progressive exercises adapted to every body, prioritising the quality of movement.
3. Conscious breathing: Using the breath as a tool to accompany movement, improve body awareness and encourage a more mindful practice. Breathing exercises are adapted to the technique and to each person's needs.
4. Posture and biomechanics: Working on alignment, mobility, balance and control of movement to build more efficient and mindful movement patterns.
5. Holistic wellbeing: Creating a space where exercise also helps you become aware of your body, slow down and connect with your own sensations, from an approach close to wellbeing and emotional intelligence.
