What makes Lissa Lenz with Colorado Springs School of Yoga a good neighbor?

From figure skater to yoga educator, Lissa Lenz has dedicated over 15 years to transforming lives through the ancient practice of yoga. As founder of the Colorado Springs School of Yoga, she's created something far more meaningful than just another fitness studio—a place where trauma-informed education empowers students to carry yoga's wisdom beyond the mat and into every corner of their lives.

The heart and soul of Lissa's school is their acclaimed 200-hour yoga teacher training program, which serves both aspiring instructors and those simply seeking deeper self-understanding. While 70% of graduates go on to teach professionally, all participants walk away with powerful tools that serve them for a lifetime. What makes this approach particularly special is its accessibility—students from ages 16 to 75 have successfully completed the training, disproving the myth that advanced physical abilities are prerequisites for meaningful yoga education.

Born from the "ultimate pause" of 2020, the school represents Lissa's response to challenge—transforming personal reflection into community opportunity. When not teaching, she retreats to her family ranch in Buena Vista, where horses, cattle, and Colorado's natural beauty provide balance to her professional life. For anyone curious about yoga's transformative potential, Lissa offers a powerful invitation: "Show up as you are and learn and grow from there." No headstands required—just an open heart and mind ready to explore yoga's life-changing wisdom through her weekend training program beginning this August.
