Meet the Instructors

Lorrie Glass Coffman BS, MBA, RYT, pHom

Lorrie is certified as a personal trainer by the American Council on Exercise (ACE) and studied practical training through ACE as well.   Lorrie has been training since 1996.  Always striving to find the ultimate fitness regimen, she realized she needed more balance in her fitness routine.  This quest led her to her first yoga class where she found the piece she was missing!  Lorrie is now a Yoga Alliance 200-hour certified yoga teacher.

Exercise and nutrition have always been her passions; yoga is the one form of exercise Lorrie has found to provide a true sense of balance in and between the mind and body.  And her personal study of nutrition has led her down the path to unraveling the mystery of what food can do in our bodies to prevent disease.  She is very dedicated to helping others learn this same information.

Lorrie earned her undergraduate degree from the University of Kansas and her graduate degree from the University of Missouri – Kansas City. After having her first child in 1999, Lorrie discovered the importance of specialized exercise and nutrition for post-partum women. While pregnant with her second child in 2003, she uncovered the nutrition piece of the equation, added that to her fitness training and founded HourGlass Fitness and Wellness, a personal fitness, nutrition and education service committed to helping YOU take control of your health and increase your quality of life using exercise instruction, nutrition education and lifestyle choices to achieve optimum wellness. 

Most recently, Lorrie's new passion is homeopathy. She was BLOWN AWAY to learn there is a medicine system that can help uproot disease from your body instead of covering up symptoms with pharmaceuticals.  She began her education about homeopathy during the pandemic and recently graduated from the Academy of Practical Homeopathy as a practical homeopath.  She loves sharing her knowledge with others in her Gateway 1 and Gateway 2 classes she teaches along wtih other disease-specific courses.
