Matthew will be traveling for most of the Winter Session, but he'll offer a workshop or two when he's in town. While he's away, we hope you'll join Elise for Sunday Slowdown at 6:15pm on Sundays.
Originally from Kalamazoo, Michigan, Matthew (he/him) has lived in the DC area for over 30 years. He began practicing yoga consistently in 2014. After several years of practicing Bikram Yoga, his interests shifted to vinyasa, Yoga Nidra, Yin Yoga, and restorative practices. Matthew completed his RYT-200 training as well as a 100-hour Yin Yoga teaching training in the spring of 2017, and has since continued to pursue training in Yoga Nidra, restorative yoga, and sound healing. He also holds a law degree from George Washington University Law School and spent nearly 26 years working on congressional affairs and federal public policy before deciding in 2018 to dedicate his time and energy to guiding gentle movement practices, meditation, and sound healing. Matthew, a teacher and board member at Circle Yoga, brings a calm, mellow vibe into his classes and workshops, with the intention of making subtle movement and stillness accessible and fulfilling to each student's body, mind, and spirit.

As the student taking classes or workshops at the studio, via livestream or by video (the “Classes”) with Circle Yoga Cooperative (CYC), I understand that the Classes include physical movements and exertion. As is the case with any physical activity, the risk of injury, even serious or disabling, is always present and cannot be entirely eliminated. I understand that it is my responsibility to consult with a physician prior to and regarding my participation in the Classes. I represent that I am in good health and physical condition and I have no medical condition which would prevent my full participation in the Classes. In addition, when in the Classes, I will make the instructor aware of any medical conditions or physical limitations before class begins. If I am pregnant, become pregnant, or I am post-natal or post-surgical, my signature below verifies that I have my physician’s approval to participate. In consideration of being permitted to participate in the Classes I agree to assume full responsibility for any risks, injuries, or damages, known or unknown, which I might incur as a result of participating in the program. In further consideration of being permitted to participate in the Classes, I expressly irrevocably release and waive any claims that I have now or may have hereafter for any reason against Circle Yoga LLC, its owners, employees, and independent contractors, for injury or damages that I may sustain as a result of participating in a Class.
