Ana Lisa Shanti Cesare

 

 

Ana Lisa Shanti Cesare was introduced to Yoga at age 15 but fell in love with it during a Shinzen Young meditation retreat. The fascination led her to explore the variations in forms of Hot Yoga, Vinyasa, and Ashtanga working with LA's Sean Corn and Shiva Rea. 

When Integral Yoga came into her life she realized that every intention and every moment of her life had to come from the heart. Yoga wasn't purely about the asana (posture) any more, it was the whole package; integrating mind, body, and spirit to awaken the energetic fire in all of us. The yoga she teaches is an energetic release of playfulness, empowerment, and surrender, reminding us to return to the Sangha (community) within our own hearts.

 

Ana Lisa lived and received Teacher Training at the Yogaville Satchidananda Ashram in Buckingham, Virginia, working with many devoted instructors including, her soul friend and highly regarded teacher, Swami Dayananda. Additionally, Ana Lisa has intertwined her Integral practice with the fluid movements of Vinyasa Flow through her studies with world reknowned, Shiva Rea. Ana Lisa’s scope of practice includes Integral, Restorative, Vinyasa Flow, and Hot Core Power. Outside of the studio, she instructs two Yoga curriculum classes at Emory University for the Undergraduate Business department, teaches throughout the Atlanta Area, and is enjoying being a Mom to her amazing little Yogi. Ana Lisa is also a Reiki practitioner and a Recreation Therapist with an additional BA in Child Development and is currently on the teachers path at the Chopra Center for Wellbeing.
