Lola Rephann

For over two decades, Lola Rephann has been leading people toward deeper self-awareness, healing, and personal transformation. A lifelong seeker and teacher, she has dedicated her life to exploring the mind-body-spirit connection through yoga, meditation, somatics, hypnotherapy, breathwork, and other healing modalities.

Lola’s teaching is an invitation to meet your edge—not just physically, but mentally and spiritually. She weaves intelligent inquiry into her classes, asking students to explore the layers of their experience: the true self, the conditioned self, and the potential for transformation. Her presence creates a space where people feel safe to be seen, to shed old patterns, and to reclaim the parts of themselves that have been forgotten or ignored.

As the founder of Four Directions School of Yoga, Lola has trained over 100 yoga teachers, blending ancient wisdom with contemporary movement science. She is an E-RYT 500, a certified coach, hypnotherapist, and Reiki Master, and a lifelong student of consciousness. Her influences span from the structured lineage of Sivananda Yoga to the innovative approaches of Forrest Yoga, Yin Yoga, and functional movement.

She is forever grateful to her teachers Paula Tursi, Ana Forrest, Erica Mather, Corinna Benner, Bizzie Gold, and countless others.
