Yoga Lola is about you.

We are a yoga studio, a healing center, and a learning center. Yoga Lola is about creating strength, courage, and beauty in yourself, in others, and in the world you inhabit. It's about learning how to reach for your highest potential physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Ultimately, Yoga Lola is about you becoming yourself.

Yoga Lola offers Kundalini-based yoga, Hatha yoga and gentle yoga. We use yoga as a way of treating the chronic illness of our time: weight gain, depression, anxiety, rage, and grief, to name a few. And, for those who are healthy, a sonic practice keeps you healthy. Therefore, we include the use of music and mantra, through drums, gongs, flutes, mantra recitation, and music CDs etc. in many of our yoga sessions. For full details on the ancient practice of sonic therapeutics and its use and efficacy now, go to our About Sonic Therapeutics page.

She has a BA in Political Science, and has a long history as a writer, teacher, and project manager in the business world.

Lola has been teaching and practicing Kundalini Yoga for the past twelve years, and has studied with many veteran teachers of the discipline. She has found that teaching is truly a transformational experience for both teacher and student.

As well as teaching classes to students in good health, Lola has blended Yoga into her healing practice (often called Yoga Therapy) and has used it with great success as part of her overall healing technique. Lola offers medical/emotional counsel as an energy healer, spiritual counsellor, yoga teacher, and general advisor. Over the course of the last 30 years, she has worked people with cancer, depression, migraines, nightmares, Hep (all varieties of it), emotional imbalances, female problems, busted up knees, torn rotator cuffs, fear, rage, addiction, hypochondria -- in short, with the full spectrum of human physical, mental, and emotional conditions and traumas. She has read, studied, attended a large number of seminars and workshops, and has been engaged in experiences related to the metaphysical aspects of human existence ever since she was old enough to read, observe, and experiment. She has worked hands-on with many masters and has independently studied literally hundreds of books on astrology, numerology, energy healing, distance healing, the power of thought, yoga, mantra and religion. She has a strong theoretical basis for her practices as well as a deep knowledge of the various metaphysical approaches and their effectiveness in managing the suffering and journeys encountered by all, combined with hands-on experience in the field.

Our approach to yoga, living it and teaching it, is about finding out who and what we are. It's not about the poses, it's not about how toned and fit we become, and it's not about the cool clothes (although we like all of these things too!). It's about digging down into ourselves, into the core of who we are, and finding out who it is that's really in there, amid all the junk and clutter we accumulate along the way. It is an amazing unending journey, and one that we enjoy sharing with others.
