Teaching Guides
Adriana Lee
500 E-RYT, 200 E-RYT, YACEP
Adriana Lee is a Las Vegas born yoga teacher and yoga teacher trainer. She is all about self discovery and empowerment through yoga. She teaches her students how to breathe, how to feel, & how to get reacquainted with their bodies. As a teacher, she breaks down big concepts & complicated poses into bite sized pieces to make them more accessible. Her teaching is based in anatomy & biomechanics. Students leave the class feeling refreshed, connected to their bodies, & empowered.
She says, “My yoga journey began when I was too young to understand the importance of what I was learning - I thought it was just exercise. But it made an imprint on me. Later, yoga helped me to heal past traumas, body dysmorphia, & more. It became my safe haven. I learned to be strong, resilient, & most importantly I learned how to navigate my emotions rather than numb them. That’s what made me want to teach. I wanted to teach people to heal their own minds and bodies.“ Her intention is to share what she has learned about the magic of movement & the bliss of being.
