About
I take my students' needs seriously. I ask about their goals, physical conditions and their level of experience with yoga. I can bring a therapeutic approach to our practices, if needed. I use props and alignment cues to bring my students to an optimal sense of strength, balance and well-being. I also offer restaurative practices, aroma therapy, and meditation.
I've been teaching for almost six years, practicing for about forteen years. I'm eRYT500 and Chair Yoga, iRest Yoga Nidra Level 1, Urban Zen Therapy, and Prenatal Level 1 certified. My website: www.liliaroman.com
Connecting with people and seeing them improve in their yoga and self-care practices.
