LINDSY SOMERS (she/her)

One of my favorite parts of yoga is how humbling it is. A decade into my practice, there continues to be more to learn, to feel, to grow and even to laugh at myself in class. I am a dedicated student of the practice and have studied under the guidance of some of the most influential teachers in my career, including Ame Wren, Daniel Max, and Tim Kelleher.

The moment I walked out of my first yoga class, I knew it would be a part of my life forever. Movement had always been a large part of my life growing up as a competitive gymnast and cheerleader, but there was a disconnect I did not know until that first time on my yoga mat.

At that time - in true Bostonian fashion – I struggled with vulnerability, rarely shed a tear, and thought being strong was to not share or feel my emotions. One hour into my first yoga class, I lay on my mat in savasana and began to cry. I knew from that moment on this practice would transform my life into something bigger, better, and more beautiful. The idea that a student might someday experience a similar sense of wholeness, embodiment and joy that I have found through my own practice, remains the most inspiring and rewarding part of being a teacher. 

What You Can Expect From My Classes

I am inspired by what feels good in my personal practice including breathy flow, detailed cues and set ups, meditation, and restorative yoga, which influence my teaching style. My flows can be rigorous and sweaty, but not void of opportunity to pause, learn and explore. I enjoy teaching classes that balance between playful fluidity and inquisitive structural alignment, while still allowing room for meditative moments. My goal is that you leave class feeling more connected to yourself, more alive and with a bit more freedom than you came in with.
