Lisa
I love yoga. All types of yoga!
I was introduced to Hot Yoga back in 2005. Ever since then, I have been on my yoga journey, and it has taken me around the world and back. I’ve never committed to one single practice, but have tried out and trained in different practices to broaden my teaching skills and deepen my own personal practice.
I first trained in the Indian Himalayas and completed my first 200hr teacher training in traditional Hatha Yoga. Since then I have completed teacher trainings in AcroYoga, Vinyasa Flow, Ashtanga Vinyasa, Pre/Post-Natal/Baby, and Hot Yoga. I am also trained in Partner Acrobatics, Flying Therapeutics, and Thai massage.
I love travelling and yoga has given me the privilege to take my teaching with me and work all over the world. Most recently I lived and taught in the UK, Ireland, and the Philippines, and have travelled in between teaching workshops in places like Sweden, Indonesia, East Timor, Turkey, Vietnam, Norway, Thailand, and Spain. I currently live in Prague and am co-founder of Prague Yoga Collective and Asana Etc.
I teach with a strong focus on the connection between breath and alignment, as our physical form is nothing without the support of our breath.
Except for yoga, I am a passionate, barefoot-running, fun-loving mother of two (Phineas, born in 2016, and Avi, born in 2019), who loves eating vegan food, getting up at 5 am for morning practice, and rainy, cold, autumn days.
