Liz believes that Yoga can heal the world. In its full expression and ultimate wisdom, it can transcend limiting beliefs and unify our globe. Imagine a world powered by a unified focus. Imagine a world working together in the collective consciousness of unconditional love; expanding out healing vibes, acceptance, kindness to one another and to our earth. That is accessible through breath and meditation.
Liz is known for her authentic, non-judgmental teaching style and compassionate centered philosophy. A student of yoga philosophy, inter-religious studies and Christ-consciousness, Liz weaves in a beautiful expansive vibe to all her offerings. She encourages self-study and exploration. She supports and seeks to foster community wherever she goes; believing in the strength of unity.
She is passionate about the healing modality of yoga, focusing on trauma sensitive yoga and yoga for special populations. She is trained in trauma sensitive yoga, and studies the epistemological framework of various belief systems to help bring unity.
If someone does not smile at you, be generous and offer your own smile. Nobody needs a smile more than the one that cannot smile to others. - Dalai Lama

Michael Stein has been practicing yoga for many lifetimes but still hasn’t quite figured it out. During his most recent incarnation he has been teaching for thirty years. His parents first introduced him to the asanas at the age of five and then tricked him into joining them on multiple yoga holidays by promising that they
were en route to Disneyland. He was the Director of Ashtanga Yoga of New Paltz and then co-Director of Yogalive where he led many workshops, teacher trainings and the like. Nothing makes Michael happier than imparting his love of yoga to students. His classes blend traditional Hatha Yoga with Ashtanga, Pilates,
Restorative and some truly awful anecdotes. He has taught workshops in NYC, New Jersey, New Paltz and Bath, England but still has not made it to Disneyland.
