Ben Lombardo

Teaches at New York Yoga

Ben Lombardo found his passion for teaching yoga after many years of exploring the body through fencing and ballroom dance. Synthesizing a lifelong interest in psychology and self awareness with his love of movement, yoga instantly became a tool to unify his life and find peace of mind. The integration of body, breath, and mind is fundamental to Ben's teaching style, which combines detailed alignment with breath work and fluid motion. His goal as a teacher is to challenge students within their limits and help them find more grace and ease in their practice. Above all, he hopes to inspire his students to never stop exploring-- using the physical body as a gateway to the subtler dimensions of the self and a heightened understanding of the interconnectedness of all life, within and without.
