litsa kapantais

Litsa Kapantais has committed to practicing yoga for 13 years and teaching Vinyasa Flow Yoga for the past 10 years. Litsa discovered her passion for yoga soon after a few classes with Steve Ross and Bryan Kest while residing in Santa Monica, CA. All she wanted to do all day was practice yoga thus found her calling to teach. Her passion for both yoga and art would ultimately lead her to open Yogatopia yoga studio in Charlotte. After more than 8,000 classes and 3 years later, she stepped away from the studio management business for the freedom of teaching corporate yoga, private lessons, leading workshops and retreats nationally and internationally, most recently in Greece. Litsa intertwines creativity and yoga to offer a heart-centered, emotionally and physically sacred approach to her teaching. Her classes integrate strength, symmetry, intuition, fluidity, a sense of humor and meditation while creating an ecstatic flow of energy in the body that produces joy, suppleness and stability. Her students come from diverse backgrounds and physical abilities but all benefit. She has developed yoga programs for young professional dancers for the NC Dance Theatre, NBA athletes, Alzheimer's Seniors in Assisted Living Centers, stay at home moms, hospital employees, fortune 500 companies and many others. She is Yoga Director at the Charlotte Athletic Club and the creator of "Yogatopia, The Art of Vinyasa Flow, DVDs” available through amazon.
