Lisa Carbone, Ed.D., Assistant Professor and Director of Licensure and Compliance at NSU’s Fischler College of Education (FCE), has been invited to serve as an expert advisor to the Yoga Alliance, the largest international nonprofit association representing the yoga community. She will participate in the Yoga Alliance’s Standards Review Project (the first review for the organization). As a participating advisor, Dr. Carbone will assist with a comprehensive review of the current yoga teaching standards in the area of “Inclusion” in the field of yoga.
Dr. Carbone has been a registered yoga teacher since 2011, and has studied and practiced yoga for almost 20 years.
