Teresa Lopes

Teresa has been practicing yoga for 10 years, and teaching for 7. She was inspired to teach as a way of combining her love of physical activity with a desire to be of service. Her initial teacher training was in Anusara yoga, which continues to deeply influence her teaching style. She has also studied with a range of wonderful teachers from different lineages.

Teresa recently completed a 200-hr teacher training with Dharma Mittra in New York and will be incorporating aspects of this classic yoga in her classes. Sri Dharma is considered one of the world’s greatest living yogis. Through 50 years of practice and 30 years of teaching, he has brought the gift of yoga to hundreds of thousands of seekers. He is known as "the Rock of Yoga" due to his dedication and fortitude, and also as the "Teacher's Teacher"  for his experience and knowledge. He is the author of 608 Yoga Poses.  In her classes, she seeks to bring the body, mind, and breath into balance so that it is possible to access the deep wisdom within.

Teresa is also a certified Stott pilates instructor, and teaches both mat and reformer pilates.
