About Lorena
Bio and Training
Lorena is an experienced registered bilingual yoga instructor, that has lead yoga clases, trainings, workshops and retreats in the San Francisco Bay Area and in Mexico for over a decade.
Her journey started around 2002 when she took her first class and knew that yoga would be part or her life forever.
Before getting into trainings she travel to Rishikesh India with her mentor Samantha Shakti and experienced the roots of the practice at Paramath Niketam Ashram.
She took her first 200 hour Teacher Training at Avalon Yoga Center in Palo Alto in 2007, followed by a Prenatal Yoga teacher training at the Santa Barbara Yoga Center and soon after she did her Whole Birth Yoga certification with Robin Sale in Santa Cruz.
She expanded her yoga studies by completing a 108-hour Anusara Immersion at Yoga of Los Altos followed by the 100 hour Anusara Teacher Training with Kenneth Graham in 2008.
After the birth of her son, Diego, her passion for leading Mom & Baby classes was ignited, and she completed the Mom & Baby Pi-Yo Play Teacher Training in 2009 and apprenticed for mom & baby yoga under Julianne Rice.
Lorena deepened her foundation in pregnancy, birth, and early parenting through the Birthing From Within childbirth training in 2010.
On 2010 she received her "It's Yoga Kids" certification in San Francisco, this has allowed her to share her passion with her own kids's and offer family yoga retreats.
She later did her 300 hour advanced yoga certification in 2016 at BAY (Balanced Action Yoga) with an amazing faculty of teachers such as Samantha Shakti, Kenny Graham, Alice, Kennedy, Siri Cavanna, Kelly Blaser, Mike Lane and other guest teachers. This training gave her the tools to fully understand the biomechanics of the body to prevent and work around injuries and build smart sequences for a sustainable yoga practice suitable to ANY population.

Lorena is passionate about making yoga accessible to everyone, where yoga is not only for "flexible" people but a tool that will enhance your quality of life no matter what stage you find yourself in.
