Lucy L. Pirner, MS
Red Twig Yoga Studio Founder
Licensed Professional Counselor (WI)
Licensed Psychologist (MN)
Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher (ERYT-500)
Ayurveda Yoga Specialist
Certified HeartMath® Practitioner
Lucy has been counseling teenagers and adults since 1991. She entered the world of yoga and meditation in 1999 in search of a cure for her own depression and anxiety. Smitten by the power of the cure, Lucy sought out her teaching certificate in Atma Yoga, a Kripalu-based method that focuses on returning to the purest state of the soul~ The Atman, and began teaching in 2001. Eight years later, she became a LifeForce ® Yoga Practitioner (a research supported method of treating depression, anxiety and trauma) and began integrating yoga into her psychotherapy practice in Hudson, Wis. In 2013, Lucy completed her 500 hour Teacher Training & Intensive "Exploring the Sacred Rivers of: Tantra, Hatha Yoga, Ayurveda, and Energy Medicine" through Devanadi School of Yoga & Wellness. Since completing the program, Lucy has become a faculty member for their Teacher Training Program and completed her certification as an Ayurveda Yoga Specialist through the Himalayan Institute. In 2015, after years of intensive study, Lucy completed her certifications as a ParaYoga® Level I Teacher and Four Desires Trainer and was initiated into the Sri Vidya Tradition. In 2017 she became a Certified HeartMath® Practitioner, which uses scientifically proven techniques and technologies to increase resilience through self regulation. In 2019, Lucy completed Trauma Informed Yoga Training with Firefly Yoga International, a researched based training program that integrates social justice into their healing modalities.
Currently, Lucy is putting her efforts into Seva (Yoga of Service) and the realms of social justice and public health. She is a founding board member of the new non-profit, Abundant Yoga Community, who bring yoga to underserved people.
Lucy has extensive training in both Western and Eastern healing modalities of treating mental health and nurturing spirituality. Her approach is compassionate and grounded. Whether meeting individually or teaching a class, Lucy's methods are well informed and embodied, allowing space for all to find their healer within.
Lucy’s psychotherapy practice is in the Inspiring Actions Yoga & Wellness Center in Hudson, WI where she also teaches drop-in yoga classes, and workshops. In River Falls, Wisconsin, Lucy can be found at Red Twig Yoga Studio & Gardens where she offers retreats and individual yoga therapy.
