Lisa Levangie
Lisa Levangie is a certified Hot Yoga (R.Y.T) instructor who trained with Jimmy Barkan from the Yoga College of India. Yoga came into Lisa's life more than 15 years ago and was led to hot yoga for health reasons. "Yoga brings my physical, mental and spiritual health into balance and keeps me centered on and off the mat." Lisa started practicing Bikram yoga with Linda at Geezum Crow and after a few years moved to Bennington where she discovered right away there was no hot yoga. Lisa went and trained with Jimmy Barkan and came back to teach in Bennington for the past five years. Lisa's passion for yoga has grown over the years as she has trained with Seane Corn, Shiva Rea, and Todd Norian. She continues to train with Jimmy Barkan when she can and explores the Eight Limb Path in her own practice. Lisa recently moved back to the area and is excited to have the opportunity to continue her teaching and practicing.

Lydia Russell
Lydia has been practicing yoga since 1996 when she was reluctantly dragged to a yoga class by a fellow dancer and became, to her surprise, instantly entranced. Now she brings her own fluid form of dance to the mat as a healing flow of Anusara-inspired yoga, designed to uplift the spirit and strengthen the body. A poet and story-teller, Lydia uses her love of words, nature, and myth to illuminate her students' asana practice as she weaves a web of rich metaphor and imagery to support and guide each student's unique journey. Deeply influenced both by Anusara yoga and Tantric philosophy, Lydia's classes are heart-opening, community-oriented, and rooted in the cycles and rhythms of the Earth. Lydia also offers herbal and nutritional counseling and private yoga lessons through her practice, “Delicious Life Holistic Health.”
