Lisa McCaskill

Lisa McCaskill received her B.A. degree from Meredith College in 1998 where she double majored in Sociology and Religion. She brings her knowledge of these fields into all she does and believes they nicely complement her yoga practice/teaching. She continues to try to learn all she can about these areas of study as they add so much to her understanding of life and the people in it.

Lisa has been practicing various forms of meditation for over 20 years and practicing yoga asana (the physical side of yoga) since 2001. She received her certification to teach Yin Yoga in 2010 with Shala Worsley of the Asheville Yoga Center and is a Yin Yoga Registered Teacher (YYRT) with the Yin Yoga Institute. Lisa continues to study everything related to Yin Yoga and has studied with Master Yin teachers Paul Grilley and Sarah Powers.

Lisa completed a 230 hour Therapeutic Yoga Teacher Training program at the Asheville Yoga Center in September 2012 where she had the opportunity to study with Viniyoga founder, Gary Kraftsow. Lisa is a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) with Yoga Alliance and is also a member of the International Association of Yoga Therapists. She is currently working towards a 500 hour Therapeutic Yoga Certification.
