Because of her own experience, she has a compassionate approach to teaching others and helping all students with their personal physical challenges.
Lilith began teaching yoga in 1999 after completing a teacher-training program at the Iyengar Yoga Institute of San Francisco. And, in 2006 opened her first clinic as a Yoga Therapist.
