She later worked as the school nurse and both developed and taught the health curriculum to students at SAR High School in Riverdale, New York.

After several years of consistent practice, Lisa went on to study at Wingate’s Dalia Mantver Mat Pilates Teacher Training Program in Tel Aviv. Integrating her understanding of the inner workings of the human body with her knowledge of the Pilates method and how it is taught, Lisa enjoys teaching every kind of student, from the experienced advanced student to the inexperienced beginner, from those who have suffered from injuries to the post-operative student, pre and post-natal clients, any age, any body. A stickler for perfect form and alignment, Lisa is a hands-on instructor whose eyes are always on her students, ensuring that they experience the utmost from their Pilates practice.
