Lori has been practicing yoga for many years. Having danced and been in theater growing up, taking Yoga and Pilates classes felt more natural than any other exercise regime. It was when she moved from San Diego to Dallas in 2011 and discovered Lotus Yoga, that yoga really became an essential part of her life. Lotus has become her family and she loves practicing yoga as a way to unwind from a long day of teaching elementary school. No matter how often she practices, she still finds new ways to challenge herself and feel amazing as a result.

In 2014, Lori decided to combine her two passions, teaching and yoga, and complete her 200 hour certification with Lotus under Jen Hensley. She is excited to share her passion with students and give back to the studio, which has given her so much. She believes that everyone can benefit from yoga and wants to share that with as many people as she can.
