Lisa Grunberger was first exposed to yoga as a child by her babysitter, an accomplished yogini and professional flutist. Lisa went on to earn her doctorate in Religious Studies at the University of Chicago Divinity School. She deepened her yoga practice through her Sivananda training in the Bahamas. Lisa teaches a vigorous, but gentle Vinyasa (flowing) yoga classes which challenge students to be fully mindful in each pose. She views yoga as a dance between body, mind and breath that can return us to ourselves each time we come to the mat with an open heart and good intention. In addition to teaching yoga in Philadelphia, Dr. Grunberger currently teaches writing, comparative religions and literature at Temple University.
