Lisa Ackerman

Lisa started her yoga journey as a teen but only started practicing regularly in her late 20s. She has practiced with many different teachers, many different modalities, and lineages and has teacher trainings in Vinyasa, Ashtanga, and Yin and is working towards her 500 hours with Awakening Yoga Academy. Over time, she discovered that to meet her students as they are in the moment she needed to teach curiosity and exploration over rigidity and tradition.

She loves teaching practical and modern yoga and mobility that we can use in life. Aside from yoga, Lisa is an animal whisperer, knitter, plant-obsessed, rollerskating, and ice dye enthusiast.
