Lumoyoga - Liisa Tamminen

I'm looking forward to tell you more about my work and my long experience in a yoga world. You can meet me in my retreats, workshops, one to one lessons, Yoga for Musicians courses, or online classes. Or even in the concerts where I practice my other "mindfulness profession", performing as a violist and baroque violist!

I'm a certified yoga teacher based in Switzerland and Finland, with over 1000 hours of yoga training in Iyengar- and Hatha Yoga styles. I started practicing yoga long before yoga became a fashion, and have extensive international teaching experience since 2005. Also a professional violist, I have a special interest teaching Yoga for Musicians, a practice which I developed during many years to serve both my colleagues and my own life as a musician. I have noticed that similar exercises also help many people who work in front of a computer!

My own style of teaching, which I call Lumoyoga, focuses on body awareness and correct alignment, re-educating the body for better posture and balance. My lessons are calm and concentrated, and poses can be held long to increase strength and flexibility, and to learn how to quieten mind when under stress. I also integrate the breathing exercises (Pranayama) and mindfulness/meditation in my classes. By using props, such as blocks, belts and blankets everyone can safely benefit from the practice, even if you are not (yet!) flexible, or have an injury.

Welcome to visit my site. I'm happy to hear from you!
