Liz Campbell | E-RYT 500 Certified

About Me

Hi! I’m Liz and teaching is one of the absolute greatest joys in my life. I started teaching in 2012 and I loved it so much that I just never stopped.

 

My classes combine intentional movement, pranayama, and integrative stillness, supporting your body, breath, and vitality.

 

Over the years, I’ve taught across Southern California, co-led retreats and teacher trainings, and developed specialized offerings rooted in yoga philosophy, asana practice, and energy regulation.

 

My background includes 200- and 300-hour certifications, advanced training in Bali and Kauaʻi, and continued study in pranayama, Sanskrit, and trauma-informed education.

 

In addition to teaching privately and at studios, I create  resources for students who want to explore the deeper, more unseen layers of yoga.

 

Whether its postures or philosophy, I always aim to keep things simple, grounded, and easy to integrate into daily life.

 

At the heart of my work is a deep respect for yoga as a lived practice that evolves with experience and meets people exactly where they are, both on and off the mat.

My Specialties

Vinyasa Flow

Energizing • Dynamic • Active

Vinyasa was my first love on my yoga path, and it’s still one of my favorite classes to teach and practice. What I enjoy most about vinyasa is its variations of postures, how they harmoniously flow together, and how good it feels to move dynamically and mindfully.

Prānāyāma

Cleansing • Tranquil • Balancing

Pranayama enhances mental clarity, reduces stress, and improves respiratory function. These are just a few of the positive effects that pranayama has to offer, and they are noticeable within minutes. I love watching how quickly the energy shifts in my students when we practice Pranayama, I think it’s something everyone would greatly benefit from.

Restorative Yoga

Grounding • Relaxing • Passive

Restorative yoga is a wonderful compliment to life as it focuses on deep relaxation, making it very accessible for anybody. It is one of my favorite yoga practices because it creates more mental and physical spaciousness, calms the nervous system, and enhances overall well-being.

Why I Teach

Within the first ten years of my teaching career, life presented many unexpected opportunities, from leading retreats and facilitating classes in some of the most beautiful places in the world to co-founding the yoga studio I once dreamed of.


Throughout my experience, I’ve found the most meaningful part about what I do is being able to witness how yoga greatly improves the quality of life. Watching my students grow stronger, healthier, and more regulated through this practice will always be what fulfills me most.


Yoga may have started as a personal obsession in my early twenties to feel better in my body, build confidence, and find inner peace, but once I began teaching, that passion naturally evolved into helping others experience the most inspiring transformations in their own lives.

My Yoga Teacher Training and First Teaching Gig

Just a few years after beginning my yoga practice, I completed my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training at the White Lotus Foundation in Santa Barbara. Shortly afterward, I got my first real teaching gig at Ritual Yoga Arts in Laguna Beach, which is where I spent nearly six years teaching, managing, and continuing my yoga education through avenues that intrigued me.


During my time at Ritual, I also achieved my 500-hour certification in Bali, studied Devanagari Sanskrit on the island of Kauai, became certified to teach Aerial Yoga in Hollywood, and continued refining myself as the teacher that my inner being recognizes – this, as I’ve learned, is a never-ending process.

How I Discovered Yoga

Yoga came into my life when I was nineteen and working at an iconic vegan restaurant in Laguna Beach, California. I was at the time obsessed with seeking out a healthier lifestyle, more self-confidence, as well as greater happiness in life, and a coworker happened to invite me to my very first yoga class.


As much as I actually disliked my introductory yoga class, it ignited an unforeseen passion that led me to explore various styles of yoga before finding my true calling in vinyasa. The creative flows, profound physical and mental benefits, and harmony of movement spoke to my soul on a new and exciting level. This discovery helped me not only create a healthier relationship with myself, it also motivated me to become a yoga teacher.

Working at Ritual was my first and most impactful chapter as a yoga teacher. While I was there, I taught Gentle Flow and Vinyasa Flow, and I was an assistant manager for three of those years. This is where I first connected with the local yoga community, developed so many of my teaching skills, and grew my self-confidence.
