Yoga's all in the family for New Jersey mom Laura Kasperzak, whose viral photos show her kids and husband in intricate backbends and inversions. The yoga mom’s Instagram account has more than 700,000 followers.


 It looks like flexibility runs in the Kasperzak family. Here, the yoga instructor poses with her 4-year-old daughter.

Instagram’s latest star is a yoga mom with two equally bendy kids and a knack for photography.

Laura Kasperzak’s artful photos show her and her 4-year-old daughter intertwined in intricate poses, a snowy field or bright green grass in the background. Other snaps feature her 8-year-old son or her husband, holding hands in tree pose or stealing a kiss mid-handstand.


 Yoga instructor Laura Kasperzak is a star on Instagram thanks to adorable photos like this one.

“It kind of happened organically,” Kasperzak said. “I would just practice and then my son would pop in and my daughter would pop in.

“It’s about teaching them to stay active and get on the mat with me and play around — they think it’s fun.”

She sets up a Nikon camera to snap shots every two seconds.

“We just do our thing and try to capture some great photos,” the 36-year-old mom said. “It’s my second hobby, my passion.”


 More than 700,000 people follow Laura Kasperzak on Instagram for photos like this one, of the yogi and her 4-year-old daughter.

More than 700,000 people follow Kasperzack on Instagram, where the New Jersey yoga instructor posts about 40 images per week.

She started the account in March 2012, at the urging of a niece who wanted a follow from her aunt.


 Laura Kasperzak’s son also gets in on the fun. The yoga mom says it’s all about teaching her kids to stay active.

“Up until then I had no idea what Instagram was,” said Kasperzak, who lives in Lincoln Park with her family.

She teaches yoga twice a week at North Jersey Muay Thai in Lodi and works full-time at a software company.

With a friend, Kasperzak also runs the website Two Fit Moms. They blog about fitness, yoga, recipes, and host $5 yoga classes and workshops.

The pair became certified yoga instructors together last year, but Kasperzak has been practicing for 17 years.

“It’s tough juggling everything — it’s a lot of early mornings. That’s usually when I practice,” she said.

“Then I get the kids up, get myself ready, go to work, come home and do anything I need to do for the website, or teach classes.”
