Gentle/Chair Yoga at First Plymouth with Amy Pickett-Williams
October 1, 2023 •
11:30 am - 12:30 pm
Lisa Theis
Lisa’s journey with the practice of yoga began in 2000 in a Bikram studio in San Francisco.
What began as a physical and mental challenge to just stay in the room for the duration of
class quickly became a deep and healing connection for her body, mind, and spirit, and
eventually became a life’s passion and calling.
Though she has had many influential teachers, she is a dedicated student and follows the
lineage of Para Yoga and Sri Vidya. Her classes strive to provide a space for each person to
explore the effect of yoga in their own way and, while rooted in the methodologies of Para Yoga,
are an amalgamation of all her teachers’ influences. Each class will include pranayama
(breathwork), the exploration and experience of the energetics of asana (postures), mantra,
visualization and intentional focus, and meditation.
