Lizzy is a yoga and Ayurveda educator devoted to holistic health through ongoing study, practice, and service. Rooted in classical yogic and Ayurvedic traditions, she brings a lifelong practice and formal studies beginning in 2008 to her teaching of Ashtanga Yoga (eight-limbed path), Hatha Yoga (path of balance), sadhana (spiritual practice), Therapeutic Yoga, Restorative Yoga, Yoga Philosophy, and Ayurveda. She completed her initial teacher training at Santa Barbara Yoga Center in the lineage of Krishnamacharya, where she also studied biomechanics and anatomy with Jules Mitchell, social responsibility with Michelle Cassandra Johnson, and Accessible Yoga with Jivana Heyman, and went on to complete Advanced Yoga Studies and Ayurvedic Yoga Therapy (C-IAYT) at Mount Madonna. She currently serves the School of Yoga at Mount Madonna as a member of the yoga faculty, in administration and admissions support, and as Program Coordinator for Advanced Yoga Studies (YTT 300), Ayurveda Educator (AE), and Ayurvedic Health Counselor (AHC) programs. Drawing on decades of experience in education, including general and special education, Lizzy approaches teaching as a path of self-inquiry, balance, and healing, and is committed to supporting students in cultivating awareness, resilience, and harmony in daily life.
