Yoga Instruction

“Yoga is the art work of awareness on the canvas of body, mind, and soul.”
― Amit Ray
Lisa began her yoga journey in 2001 in New York, where she discovered the transformative power of a dedicated vinyasa practice. After receiving her 200-hour certification in 2007, she delved into a dedicated Ashtanga practice in New York, San Francisco, and in Marseille at Yama Yoga. In Paris, she studied vinyasa with renowned teacher Gerard Arnaud for four years.

Today, Lisa teaches slow vinyasa—a mindful approach rooted in Ashtanga tradition, with sun salutations and warrior sequences that honor the body’s natural rhythm. She also guides students through restorative yin practices and occasionally sets the flow to music.

What makes Lisa’s classes distinctive is her integration of dharma and life wisdom into movement. Her teaching invites students into a meditative, contemplative space where they can explore that sweet spot between effort and ease, between energy and over-striving. With careful attention to alignment and an emphasis on mindfulness, students discover not just physical strength, but inner balance—nourishing both body and mind in a practice that extends far beyond the mat.

South of France Pilgrimage May 18-25

 

In May 2026, we will join our spiritual teacher, Catherine Pawasarat Sensei for an unforgettable week-long pilgrimage through the sacred landscape of southern France. Organised by Lisa on behalf of Planet Dharma and Dharma Europe, we will be tracing the path of Mary Magdalene from the shores of Saintes Maries de la Mer to Marseille to a mountain cave in Sainte Baume where she spent her final years in contemplation. Dharma Trips are on-the-road retreats — a cherished part of our lineage — where travel itself becomes practice.
