Born and raised in the Rocky Mountains, Lydia has a strong passion for physical sports outdoors. She discovered the bikram series as a small child when her mother was practicing it at home with the book. Later in her 20’s she rediscovered it while living in San Francisco. As it has helped her heal injuries from a car accident, she has been dedicated to always learning more and sharing her love of this healing and accessible practice to anyone who is willing to listen and try. She has been the proud owner of 2 schools for over 11 years and now having only one for almost 16 years. She stays connected to the bikram method family that exists all over the world by giving retreats and often judging at international competitions.
