YOGA & RETREATS

YOGA

is the practice of self study.

While the physical asana (posture practice) allows our bodies to be strong and healthy, the practice of breath allows our minds to become more equanimous and meditative. Ultimately, reaching a state of peace and harmony. Yoga is not only a physical practice, but also a physiological and spiritual one. It takes patience, diligence and humility to stay on the path as a student of yoga.

I

offer a broad range of yoga modalities that is curated to the students personality and physical needs. From all levels Hatha, Iyengar, Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Power, Gentle, Restorative, Yin, Chair Yoga to Acupressure Ball Therapy. My intuitive style of teaching stems from my own experiences as a student of yoga. I firmly believe that everyone can benefit from this life changing practice.

  • “Lisa, thank you for hosting the mother-daughter retreat. It was a wonderful opportunity to bond, relax, connect with nature, and work on our minds, bodies, and souls. We enjoyed the wide array of activities, the beautiful location, and delicious meals. You are an amazing yoga instructor, Every time I’ve taken one of your classes I immediately see the difference in my body and posture. I appreciate how you adapt the sessions so all participants can follow the exercise at our own pace. You are an extremely thoughtful person and a beautiful soul. I can’t wait for the next mother-daughter retreat!

  • “ A friend invited me to join Lisa’s yoga retreat at Lake Anna and I decided to go. Totally unaware that my life was about to change as soon as I met Lisa! She was so kind, nurturing and also challenging in a way that brings out the best in you. She sees things that you didn’t even realize you had in you and encourages everyone to live their best life. With the nourishment of healthy food and drinks, the physical and spiritual healing of her incredible yoga practice and the warm camaraderie of inspiring women at this yoga retreat - my soul came back to life again! The whole experience from start to finish was just priceless. I wouldn’t know what I would have done if I never met Lisa. Thank you for the light you shine on this earth!”

    - Donald D.

  • “I had the most remarkable tour with Lisa Ai’s Yoga Retreat In Greece! Not only was everything just right, but I felt, in every instance, that our guides and Lisa truly cared about us. This was my first trip to Greece and the activities, whether it was sea kayaking, the foodie walking tour, our bike tour, the Greek wedding show, and hiking along the beautiful coastline in Santorini, are just some memorable experiences that I will remember, draw upon, and cherish for many years to come. The sunrise and sunset yoga had stunning views and were great to start and end our days. And or course, I met some great people and made friends from this trip! Thank you Lisa and everyone for making this trip a tremendous one!

    - Allie M.

  • I can't begin to describe how amazing Lisa's yoga retreat in Dubrovnik, Croatia was. Everything was superb! From the organization and location of the retreat, to the hotel and the excursions and of course, the morning yoga facing the Adriatic Sea was sublime. Every detail was taken care of with attention to ensuring that the retreat defined the most important and caring aspect of an international yoga experience - the emphasis on culture (and cuisine!) and attention to each yogi supported a vibrant and inspiring daily practice. She is that rare facilitator who understands and incorporates individual and group dynamics into lived experiences as part of an organic and fulfilling practice. I came away refreshed and revitalized. I can't wait to join Lisa in her next international yoga retreat!

    - Maria C.

  • I attended my first ever yoga retreat with Lisa in Dubrovnik Croatia and really enjoyed this experience. As a beginner in yoga, I loved having yoga twice a day, specially the morning ones. Since I am a beginner, Lisa modified the poses for me or suggested different ones. The hotel that we resided at during our retreat was one of the most luxurious hotels in Dubrovnik old town, checking into the hotel made me feel instantaneous calm. The excursions and activities that Lisa had planned, were well organized and fun. It gave me a great opportunity to learn about Croatia, its culture, nature and food. Being with a group of truly wonderful ladies made this retreat a lot more relaxing and rewarding. Our group was relatively small but all so kind and fun people to be around. Thank you Lisa for arranging such a fantastic retreat! Can’t wait for next year!

    - Layla S.

  • "I recently had the pleasure of attending Lisa's international yoga retreat at Dubrovnik, Croatia, and it exceeded all my expectations. It was a transformative experience that left me feeling refreshed and recharged! The peaceful surroundings, serene Adriatic sea, provided the perfect backdrop and homebase for our yoga sessions. I'm impressed by Lisa's thoughtfully curated dining and excursions that allowed for a well-rounded retreat! What an amazing experience!"

    - Euna P.

  • “Lisa’s retreat was a joy to be a part of! The community she has created through her yoga practice is wonderful. It was so much fun to travel to such a beautiful place and to be able to build on the strong foundation she had given us in class. The excursions were well thought out and planned. We really got to see so much of what Croatia had to offer! Will definitely be signing up again some day soon!”

    - Karleigh A.

  • I had such a wonderful trip with Lisa Ai on our yoga retreat to Croatia. I wanted to meet up with my daughter in Croatia and it coincided with Lisa’s yoga trip. So I jumped in and it was so much fun. Lisa had arranged for several side trips and dinners with the group but also gave plenty of time for individual activities. We had a marvelous time seeing Croatia but also took time out in the morning and evening for yoga. Lisa is an exceptional instructor and knows everything about all aspects of yoga.
