Lori has been studying yoga in the Iyengar method for eight years.  Studying directly with Mahyar Raz, Senior Iyengar Yoga teacher, Lori has been a student teacher for five years and brings with her 15 years of professional work experience in the field of adult training and development.  Lori has benefited from incorporating a solid yoga practice into her lifestyle on many levels.  Lori regularly attends workshops (held by distinguished Iyengar Yoga Senior Teachers including Manouso Manos, Stephanie Quirk and Mahyar Raz) and Pranayama and Sadhana intensives to hone and deepen her understanding and learning with the hopes of sharing this knowledge with other students and anyone interested in the subject of Yoga.  As a teacher, Lori brings energy into the room and connects with her students through humour and instruction that encourages and allows each student to challenge themselves and reap the benefits of a robust yoga asana practice.  Lori recently returned (October 2007) from a one month intensive study at RIMYI (Iyengar Institute) in Pune, India where she studied with Geeta and Prashant Iyengar.
