Eliza Bishop | Yoga Teacher
About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Eliza was introduced to yoga in 2002 while completing her academic degrees at Carnegie Mellon and Oxford Universities. Grateful for the relief from chronic back pain, Eliza grew to appreciate the insight yoga offers into the connections between physical, mental, and emotional patterns and its value as a tool for developing the mind. This made her ripe to begin her formal Buddhist path in 2007, which led her to study for years in India, Nepal, and Europe with numerous teachers, primarily His Holiness the Sakya Trinzin the 41 st and Her Eminence Jetsun Kushok Chimey Luding Rinpoche. At present, she has done years of cumulative meditation retreat and is an authorized Kum Nye Facilitator via the Nyingma Institute. She is also an
internationally certified Iyengar Yoga Instructor. Eliza is the copyeditor and proofreader for the Namchak Translation Committee.
As a Kum Nye facilitator, her focus is on the inner healing and greater well-being that naturally occurs by expanding one’s ability to be fully embodied and present. She says “Kum Nye is like magic you put into your body that unfolds through time.”
