About Ada...

Ada Lusardi’s classes and workshops marry the heart and science of yoga by offering nuanced and precise teaching with warmth and humor. Based on nearly two decades of meditation and yoga training, as well as her experience as a professional dancer, Pilates teacher, Iyengar yoga instructor, and yoga teacher trainer, Ada employs a deeply embodied and intellectual understanding of the human form. Through the use of compassionate and clear direction, intelligent sequencing and skillful hands-on adjustments, Ada’s teachings enlighten, challenge and refine one’s yoga practice, regardless of age or ability.

Ada receives inspiration from the dedication of her students, and feels deeply grateful for the guidance provided by her teachers: Donald Moyer, Mary Lou Weprin and Judith Hanson Lasater, among others. A self-professed "anatomy geek," she leads classes and retreats throughout California’s Bay area and around the country. You can find her in the May and October 2011 issues of Yoga Journal.
