Throughout my life, I kept trying yoga. During my first private session with Lisa, I DID yoga! Lisa knew exactly when and how to stretch me beyond my personal resistance to do what I was capable of... Because of her ability to instruct according to my needs, I was able to stay motivated and excited to continue with yoga.

As you move through yoga breathing and classical physical postures you will release tension throughout the body. Chanting, basic meditation, and guided visualizations may also be part of this process. All yoga poses and practices will be demonstrated and explained so you reap the full benefits of each step. Yogic practices engender clarity of thought, improved functional movement, plus awareness and honing of your impulses and intuition. As the mind becomes calm and receptive, the body more flexible and toned, focusing energy to fulfill your creative goals becomes attainable. Explorations via dance, voice, music, drama, writing, or visual arts are offered to uncover deep source material, or to refresh and nourish your work. Using techniques across disciplines removes stagnation, ignites your potential, and feeds the imagination. This is time to play, release inhibition, and experience joy.
I felt immediate effects from the chakra work...I have opened up my singing voice in a much stronger, controlled position while expanding on my improvisation.

Sessions end with deep relaxation in order for integration of the process to occur on all dimensions of the individual: body, mind and spirit. We close with a brief dialogue to check in on the experience, discuss homework or clarify questions.
