Lisa Hillhouse

As a longtime personal trainer and yoga teacher, I’ve devoted my life to health and wellness. My passion is improving the overall quality of life for each client through tailoring a program for his or her specific needs.

My yoga experience has evolved as life has progressed. A frozen shoulder and torn MCL lead me on a path to finding relief. Physiotherapy and Chiropractic work helped but it wasn’t until I attended a somatic class that I found profound relief.  At the same time, my personal training business began to shift as new clientele were coming in with “issues in their tissues”. Gratitude for the practice of somatic yoga led me to obtaining a Gentle Somatic Yoga Practitioner Level 1 certification.

It gives me great joy sharing this work and witnessing the benefits. I love guiding private sessions, as it provides an opportunity to explore what’s been held emotionally, spiritually, physically and mentally.  Through the movement sequences, we can learn to let go of the pain, stiffness, congestion, and whatever else is being held, to ultimately restore sense of ease and wellness.

Lisa offers private somatic classes out of a private studio in North Vancouver, BC, and also makes home visits for an additional charge.  Please visit my website or call (604) 218-5199 for more information.
