Shakti Vinyasa Yoga

In 1999, Lisa Black made a life changing decision. She left her job, sold her car along with everything she owned, and left for India to practice and explore yoga.

“In India, every morning I committed to getting up and going to the rooftops of these hotels. I would practice yoga as the sun was coming up; that was my huge inspiration. I studied yoga wherever I went and ended up for a week at an ashram in Rishikesh. It was a very powerful experience. I stayed for an extra month and did my first teacher training in Kerala at the Sivananda ashram which was life changing.” – Lisa Black, on her experience in India

Feeling that yoga was her true calling, Lisa returned to the United States in 2000 and began teaching yoga full time. In 2001, she flew to Mexico to study under Baron Baptiste.
