About this Retreat
Your Guides
Angelica Lopez is a Puerto Rican trauma-informed yoga facilitator from Holyoke, MA, whose early experience with yoga during an abusive upbringing became a source of agency and empowerment. After two decades of practice, she deepened her studies, completing training with organizations like The Veterans Yoga Project, Yoga4Cancer, and The Prison Yoga Project. Angelica partners with organizations such as Dress for Success, the Western Mass Wellness and Recovery Center, and The Brick House to bring healing-centered yoga to communities that might not otherwise have access to it. In 2021, she created the Thrive series, an 8-week program supporting survivors of sexual trauma by uplifting the strengths and wisdom they already possess. Her work continues to evolve, offering accessible and inclusive spaces for healing.

Excellent program. Brother Dom’s presentation was timely, clearly articulated, and inspiring. I have attended previous programs by him, and he never disappoints.
I have one suggestion for Genesis. There was some confusion about the agenda, in terms of times of the sessions as well as when the actual sessions began and ended. It would be helpful if an agenda could be sent out the day before the program begins. As commuters, it was a bit challenging to make sure we knew exactly when we needed to be there and for how long.
That said, as always, the staff was welcoming, helpful and friendly.

This workshop had outstanding researched material. The presenter was very knowlegable.
I was overwhelmed by so much input with no processing time permitted. I wished the presenter could present his points in everyday language.

The topic was very relevant and well presented. There were opportunities for questions and comments. It provided thoughtful information to bring home to continue to digest, absorb and live from.
