Lydia

Major: PHD in English

Lydia considers movement to be a joyous manifestation of being fully alive. She practiced classical ballet for more than 15 years before discovering a love of all forms of dance and fitness. She hopes participants leave her classes feeling energized and empowered to take on other challenges in life with confidence. In addition to pursuing a graduate degree in English, Lydia also holds a certificate in Plant-based Nutrition from Cornell University, and she loves making healthy treats for her two young sons. 

"I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practice resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life.." -Henry David Thoreau from Walden
