"Lisa's love for teaching, story telling and Yoga is obvious in her class for children. She mixes story telling and asanas to create an inviting environment for children to learn and explore yoga." - T Alexander, Yoga Teacher and Director
Lisa's yoga classes are fun, creative classes for kids to enjoy, explore and learn yoga while just being kids. In some classes, parents are invited to join the class with their children; in other classes, the children are the only participants, and parents are invited to quietly watch. Classes range from 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Yoga classes will help kids and adults develop their flexibility, strength, breathing, body awareness and mindfulness. As students stretch their bodies, they will also stretch their imaginations, cooperation and focus skills in a playful, safe environment. These lively classes includes asana and creative movement, often woven into stories; interactive games; and peaceful moments. Come and play!

"Lisa brings creativity, patience and humor to her yoga practice with kids. She creates a comfortable environment in which her students feel safe to try new things and to grow. By relating the poses to experiences that the kids would understand and incorporating stories and games, she really made yoga accessible and fun. Amazing how much they accomplished in a short amount of time!" - Jen, Albany coordinator of the East Bay Center for Performing Arts before and after school enrichment programs
