Lisa invites her students into the joy of having a moving, breathing body. Her classes focus on embodying ease within effort using what she sees as three Super Powers: curiosity, exploration and self-inquiry. She teaches with quintessential Irish charm and humour, imparting clarity and sensitivity while revealing the evolution of somatics and yoga.
Lisa first trained at Vivekenanda Kendra (India’s most reputable Yoga Therapy hospital), before studying and co-teaching extensively with Donna Farhi. Her other primary teachers over the past two decades are Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen and Amy Matthews. Lisa offers workshops and teacher trainings in yoga, somatics and embodied anatomy around the world.
