Claudia Lopez, known to her students as Pia, is originally from Cali, Colombia and now lives in Miami. She spent six years working in marketing across three corporations after studying Economics and International Business, before yoga pulled her in a different direction.

After four years as a dedicated yoga practitioner and self-student, Claudia completed her first teacher certification and went on to become a 500-hour certified yoga instructor. She now teaches full time through Pia Yoga, sharing her love of alignment-based practice with students online and in person, and drawing on her marketing background to build a bilingual (Spanish/English) wellness brand.
