Lisa G. Hampton, Founder and CEO
The Mind Behind Mindful Fitness LLC
Lisa Hampton is a fitness pacesetter. Fifteen years ago, she was an insightful forerunner in her industry, incorporating the mindful concepts of yoga into traditional fitness programs. Since then, mind-body fitness popularity has grown only stronger and healthier. And Lisa now excels in her field as an ACE ( American Council on Exercise ) certified personal trainer, yoga instructor and consultant of mind-body health and fitness, exercise physiology and strength training.
Half-way through her second decade as the entrepreneurial owner of Mindful Fitness, Lisa has cultivated a loyal following of mind-body believers. Through the years, her clients have practiced Mindful Fitness principles and benefited from safer, more effective and more enriching fitness experiences. Clients frequently enter Mindful Fitness programs as an escape from the discouragement, stress and exhaustion that follow unsuccessful attempts to achieve solely external fitness goals. Lisa developed Mindful Fitness to be an enjoyable and energizing alternative to traditional fitness methods. Clients practicing mindful techniques describe their experiences as a liberating and uplifting journey toward feeling connected and whole on multiple levels—emotional, mental, physical and spiritual.
In 2009, as a response to popular requests made by clients who wanted to take the Mindful Fitness approach with them when they relocated outside the San Diego area, Lisa developed Mindful Fitness licensing. Launched during the August IDEA World Fitness Convention in Anaheim, the Mindful Fitness license program enables traditional fitness professionals and entrepreneurs to use and benefit from the strategies that Lisa has proven effective in meeting the needs of a wide variety of fitness clients.
Also in 2009, Lisa produced her first compact disc Path to Tranquility, a 60-minute audio recording of soothing voice instruction accompanied by classical guitar that leads listeners through a breathing exercise, a guided imagery practice, and a yoga session consisting of more than 20 positions chosen to improve lower-back health as well as to promote relaxation and reduce stress.
