“I have found Yoga to be tremendous holistic form of exercise - it helps everything! I love the subtle way your body and mind changes when you’re practicing and even in the in-between times. Add Lisa and you have just the very best talented teacher. I love her classes and the laughs we have - brilliant combination!”

“I came to Yoga about ten years ago as an extension of a meditation practice that I had started. From the get go, I found that it helped me slow down a very busy mind and deepened my ability to relax whilst gaining strength and flexibility in my body. Besides the physical and mental benefits of yoga practice, I found that the community that Lisa has fostered to be the magnet that brings me back. As a teacher, Lisa has the rare ability to simplify and break down complex poses and ensures that I bring my practice level to the best of my ability whilst keeping a sharp eye on her students to avoid injury. Lisa is a warm, compassionate soul who also helps keep Yoga fun and fresh.”

“Attending Lisa's yoga classes has made a huge difference to my mental and physical wellbeing. My mobility has increased and classes are always great fun.”

“Lisa greets everyone with a warm, welcoming smile, which immediately makes you feel happy you made her class.  Lisa is encouraging & intuitive in her teaching, catering for all abilities in the one class. She shares her vast knowledge & experience with such grace & elegance, truly making you feel at ease.  Yoga for me is my reset button! It’s my time out, for me! It releases any negative energy held in my body through breathing & movement. In a busy world, it’s more important than ever for us to just stop & breathe. Lisa’s class is life! For me anyway!"

“I have had a regular Yoga practice for over 20 years. Honestly, I’m not sure where I’d be without yoga in my life. Lisa has a beautiful yoga style of teaching. Her approach is technically excellent but never intimidating. She has always supported me in my yoga practice. Monday morning class is a challenge to get to (life has a habit of getting in the way) but once I’m there, I feel mentally, physically and emotionally in a better space during and afterward.”

— Teresa Banaghan 

“I was introduced to yoga and Lisa by a friend a year ago and immediately I was sold. I was captured right away by her ability to engage with her students; her intelligence of the human body; her ability to make anatomy fascinating; her passion for yoga; her infectious laugh and her humour. Everything about her feels very natural and real. Yoga practice with Lisa has fundamentally changed the way I view exercise and breathwork. My journey is only really beginning but my body is already responding by becoming more flexible and strong and I already feel the benefits in my spirit. Lisa's teaching embodies yoga's true potential: light, free, non-judgemental, sacred, strong and loving. Also her magical voice seems engineered for relaxation in savasanna!”

— Suzy Coen 

“I started doing Yoga with Lisa as a complete beginner about 8 or 9 years ago and I have hardly missed a class since! It is one of the most amazing things you can do for both body and mind. Lisa is a fantastic teacher and is so encouraging and helpful. She really loves to teach and this shows in her classes.”

— Arlene White 

“Lisa’s classes are a well balanced mixture of challenging and relaxing. Her passion for yoga is contagious, and her gentle teaching is varied and never repetitive. I’ve enjoyed yoga with her for years.”

— Mary Jo 

“I have been doing yoga classes for over 30 years and about 2 years ago I started classes with Lisa. She really embodies what she teaches and it is a joy to do yoga with her, she is the best teacher I have found.”

— Carol Hoey 

“I always come out of Lisa's class feeling both relaxed and energised. Each class has something new. Lisa has a beautiful soft soothing voice and I always feel safe following her instruction. Last but not least she is full of encouragement and fun which makes the class the most enjoyable hour of my day.”

— Katrina Bradley 

“I have been doing yoga classes with Lisa for a number of years and absolutely love them. Each class is different working on keeping my joints  moving  so as age  creeps up I can remain active and flexible. Lisa adapts every pose to suit what I need.  Lisa is a bubbling caring teacher, always mindful of her class while extending us to our full potential. Her classes are fun and all of us have become friends over the years.”

— Ann Guiney 

“Lisa is such an inspiring and patient teacher with the “senior ladies group”. I always look forward to Monday morning knowing that at the end of the class I will be feeling energized and ready to face the week. Our class was especially appreciated during lockdown when we went on Zoom, a medium new to all of us. I enjoy the fun aspect of the class and value the friends I have made. Lisa reminds us of the importance of keeping in touch with each other and meeting up for coffee.”

— Mary McGuinness

“I have fond memories of the day I first saw Lisa’s notice that she was running gentle yoga classes.  I credit these and her careful care and teaching with being able to continue active hospital nursing until mandatory retirement at 66 years of age. I will continue classes as long as possible. Thank you.”
