Matthew D. Lyons

He began a consistent practice of yoga in 2014. After several years of practicing Bikram Yoga, Matthew sought to expand his practice into the subtle side of asana practice and meditation -- namely Yin, restorative, and Yoga Nidra. He became inspired to teach in 2016 and completed his RYT® 200 training in May 2017. Matthew also completed a 100-hour Yin yoga teaching training in June of the same year. Subsequently, Matthew has received comprehensive training for Divine Sleep® Yoga Nidra and restorative yoga. He is a committed student and practitioner of the many paths of yoga. Matthew brings a calm, mellow vibe into the studio, with the intent of making yoga accessible and fulfilling to each student's body and spirit. Matthew holds a law degree and spent nearly 26 years working on congressional affairs and federal public policy before deciding to dedicate his time and energy to teaching yoga.
