Hello! My real name is Claudia P. López, and the P. is not from Pia! It’s actually from Patricia. However, I took the name Pia from my childhood nickname, to create my brand.
I’m from Cali, Colombia but currently living in Miami for the last 10 years, with my husband and my beautiful daughter (3yo at the moment).
I studied Economics and International Business and worked in Marketing for 6 years in 3 different corporations.
I practiced yoga for the first time years ago when I was looking for something to help calm my mind. However, it wasn’t until I tried a power yoga class in 2013, that I became more involved in this practice
After 4 years of being a practitioner and a self-student, I decided to take my first Teacher certification.
At that time I had already left my corporate job, so after my training, I went completely in on sharing my love for yoga and teaching this practice to others.
I keep adding to my journey and enjoying the process. I hope we can cross paths if we haven’t already!
I love spending time with others and making people smile and laugh because I believe in the power of it. I enjoy a good conversation with friends just debating things. I like to stay active and healthy by doing any type of activity, but I also enjoy a calm afternoon.
I love practicing and sharing yoga as a tool to live a happier and more meaningful life. I love to read different types of books such as historical, non-fiction, biographies, personal development, and yoga. Also, I like writing what comes to my mind.
I enjoy traveling so much that in 2018, my husband and I decided to take a 6-month trip to explore a few places in the world (check out our journey HERE). My favorite parts of the trip were ones where I could be in contact with nature, whether through trekking or enjoying the ocean.
Lastly, I must say… I LOVE dancing (and dogs!).
I have had the privilege to practice and study from world-known teachers like Kino McGregor, David Keil, Gokulacandra, Gurmukh, and Anand and Sadhana, creators of Skanda Yoga.
To all of the teachers who I have had in my years of practice: thank you! Thank you for inspiring me, for teaching me, and for keeping this practice alive.
