Your core is a beautifully intricate structure that plays an essential role in every single yoga pose, daily movement, and breathing. In this workshop, we will explore sun salutations, standing poses, twists, planks, inversions, and savasana from the perspective of the core. Students will walk away with an ability to gauge how much engagement (or not!) different poses ask of the body, an understanding of how the spine both moves and is held in place, and a deeper appreciation for their literal center.

Meet Matt

As many do, Matt discovered yoga after a breakup, and fell in love at first savasana. He soon found that yoga helped him address more than just temporary pains. Having spent much of his life in a sedentary body from which he felt deeply alienated, yoga connected him with his physical self in a way he’d never experienced before. His goal is to provide this kind of self-connection for his students in every class; Matt creates sequences that bring practitioners deep into the somatic sensations of asana. Expect specific cueing that unifies the mind, breath and body through intensity and to walk away with a liberating calm. And on a good day, his jokes will land, too.

Matt owes much of his teaching style to Yogamaya in New York City, where he completed his 200hr in the summer of 2022, led by Bryn Chrisman, Amanda MacDonald, Danielle Harboard, and Julie Pasqual. He also completed Down Under Yoga's 300hr in Boston in 2023.
