Instructor & Staff Information
Lisa Bergly, RYT
Lisa Bergly is a certified Hatha Yoga Teacher through the Temple of Kriya Yoga in Chicago Ill., and she is registered with the National Yoga Alliance. Lisa enjoys the opportunity to teach her passion, Yoga. Her teaching style is fun and calm and inviting as well as informative. Lisa teaches about the power of breath and the connection between breath and body. She encourages people to find the teacher within themselves by "waking up" to their subtle energies and becoming more aware. Lisa's classes always leave you feeling balanced and renewed, peaceful. Don't get me wrong, it's not a piece of cake, there is effort before surrender - kind of like life huh?

Lisa shares a home with her beautiful husband and two great kids (and all their pets) in Chanhassen MN.

Lisa teaches Hatha yoga classes with a strong influence on Kriya Yoga. The practice of Kriya Yoga is that of self discipline, self study and the study of yoga scriptures/spirituality. Lisa's classes focus heavily on how to take the practice of Yoga into your daily living patterns and habits.

Lisa also teaches a very unique class of postnatal yoga (Yoga Bonding), where she focuses on integrating babies into the Mothers or Caregivers Yoga Practice. Lisa has developed a sequence of this baby integrated yoga and has been teaching this sequence for several years. Just recently Lisa has made her postnatal class into a DVD title: Yoga Bonding®; A Baby Integrated Postnatal Yoga Sequence. It is now available for sale in the Yoga Center's Yoga Shop and at a variety of other yoga studios and baby stores.
