Let Yoga light your heart...
MEET YOUR YOGA INSTRUCTOR
Lori Lopez
• Bhakti Yoga Instructor • Ayurvedic Practitioner
• Meditation & Chakra Reiki Master • Resilient spirit with a Wild Heart
My path to yoga is a powerful story of transformation, healing, and self-love. After facing serious health challenges—including heart attacks and a knee replacement and Osteoporosis—I was introduced to yoga as part of my recovery. What began as a doctor’s suggestion soon became my life’s work. I lost 190 pounds and gained a new sense of purpose through yoga. I am a 1008-hour RYS Bhakti yoga teacher with over four years of Ayurvedic study and five years of anatomy training. My classes are heart-centered, accessible, and rooted in lived experience. I deeply understand the vulnerability of starting—or restarting—a wellness journey and bring compassion, encouragement, and inspiration to every student I meet. Sharing my passion and knowledge with YTT 200 Yoga students has been a dream come true. I feel in my soul that supporting others on their own journey is my true calling, whether that be through 1:1 coaching , classes or retreats .
I have been married to my best friend Steve for over 48 years. Together we've built a beautiful life with three children, 11 grandchildren, and six great-grandchildren. I love kayaking, hiking, biking on my e-bike, and traveling the country in our motorhome surrounded by family and lifelong friends.
I currently teach at YogaSix in Brentwood, California. My energy, wisdom, and radiant spirit make me an inspiring teacher and guide for those seeking healing, balance, and deeper connection.

RETREATS
A yoga retreat offers a chance to step away from daily life and find peace and rejuvenation. When I first set out on my yoga journey retreats allowed me the space and atmosphere I needed to grow confidence in my practice. Through the years I have been truly inspired by the magic of retreats and dreamt of one day bringing my personal vision of retreats to life. I am so honored for the divine guidance that has allowed me to now host and facilitate retreats of my own in beautiful Mexico.
Felicity Odell
Co-Facilitator & Yoga Partner in Crime
Yoga has connected me to so many special people, and I am honored to introduce to you my fellow retreat facilitator, and friend Felicity Odell. Felicity is a curious soul and lifelong seeker—drawn to movement, people, and meaningful experiences. Her yoga journey began in her twenties and deepened in her forties when she felt a strong calling to teach. She is certified through CorePower Yoga (200-hour based on the Baptiste method), Yoga Sculpt, YogaSix, and the Prison Yoga Project (trauma-informed, mindfulness-based). In June 2025, she will begin a five-month coaching program at the MindBodyGreen Institute—a globally respected program that blends the science of functional medicine with the art of coaching. Her focus includes mental health as we age, food as medicine, movement as a gateway to healing, and the vital role of community and purpose in living a meaningful life. A proud mother of three and joyful grandmother to a beautiful baby girl, Felicity is also a passionate traveler. Her teaching style is grounded in service, humor, vulnerability, and kindness—creating space for others to feel welcome, inspired, and free to explore their own light. Felicity teaches Vinyasa, Yoga Sculpt, Restorative, and Yoga Nidra, and believes the collective energy of practice keeps us connected—to ourselves and one another. Together, we aim to create unforgettable retreat experiences and memories that last a lifetime.
