Bio

Lisa has been teaching mindful practices in New York City for over 20 years. Her practice and teaching continue to evolve and deepen through her own daily explorations, both on the mat and off, and through continued study with the teachers who inspire her most. After years of various trainings Lisa discovered and was certified in Hanna Somatic Yoga with Eleanor Criswell and the Teaching Team at the Novato Institute. Upon completion she began the three-year Hanna Somatic Education program with the same faculty and was certified in 2021. This same year she completed her certification in Trauma-Informed Yoga Therapy with Sundara Yoga. More recently she completed a certification with the HeartMath Institute in Trauma Sensitive Healthcare and several certifications studying Interpersonal Neurobiology with Dr. Dan Siegel. These teachings prepared Lisa to develop class curriculums for oncology, general medical and psychiatric patients, which she has the pleasure of guiding through the Weill Cornell Center for Health and Wellbeing. Most recently she has developed and brought to market The BlockNRolla which is a tool for movement practices.
