Lisa Malloy

Hi, I am Lisa Malloy and I live in Mount Dora, Florida.  I am a Florida native who enjoys the outdoors, swimming, fishing, sun, water, and gardening, and I have a true passion for Yoga.  I have always enjoyed being active, fit and eating well.  As time moves on, I came to look for a style of healthly living and I gravitated to Yoga.  You see I am a "townie" where I live, and that means walking to town, buying local and eating local.  As I was desiring a Yoga studio within walking distance... and there was none, so I decided to open one.  At that time I knew very little about true yoga, but I simply felt the need to create and open a studio.  From that point I met many wonderful teachers from my area and found my own way to becoming a teacher.  The journey began.  The message I created for my studio was, "Begin your journey, continue on your path, or deepen your practice..."  all of which I continue to do with each day of my Yoga.

I now teach Gentle Yoga in a slow, lovely rhythm, that is quiet and contemplative.  I was fortunate to be directed to the Amrit Yoga Institute, and received my teacher training and Certificate there.  I honor the tradition of Yoga, unifying the body, mind, and spirit, and one of my favorite phrases is "In stilling there is seeing". 

I find a treasure in my Yoga practice that allows for an authentic connection to something truly meaningful, and I enjoy sharing this aspect of Yoga with my students during each practice.  A wise teacher of mine once said, that our Yoga practice is really something more, and not at all a practice... it is actually an experience. 

I look forward to offering my Yoga style of simply being, and being present at this moment in time.  I wish you all good things, Jai.
