Lynne Begier has been a dedicated yoga student since 1991, a full-time teacher since 2001 and opened Back Bay Yoga Studio in January of 2002. Lynne graduated from the Agnes Irwin School in Pennsylvania and went on to Georgetown to complete her degree in Languages and Linguistics where her interest in foreign cultures, philosophy, theology and intense struggles with depression and eating disorders led her to yoga. She went on to study very extensively in many styles of yoga including Kripalu, Ashtanga, Forrest, Vinyasa, Restorative, Iyengar, Yin and Anusara. In 2002 she opened Back Bay Yoga in a small unfinished space above Little Stevie's House of Pizza with the simple desire to create a space for teachers to do what they love. That mission has not changed and BBY remains one of the premier studios in Boston and home to many of the city's best teachers. In her classes students can expect to peel away layers of habitual behavior, learn about their own anatomy and delve deep into their authentic selves. Her Vinyasa classes are steeped in healthy alignment, careful sequencing and balancing stability with mobility for the long term health of the mind and body. In Hip Hop Yoga, Lynne encourages transformation through shedding the unimportant and embracing challenges - all set to an upbeat playlist for all levels and ages to enjoy. In addition to being director, founder and a teacher at Back Bay Yoga, Lynne continues to train and draw inspiration from her many teachers and mentors. She credits Ana Forrest for many years of training and mentorship both on off the mat. Her current practice and teaching is inspired by the anatomy wisdom of Judith Lasater, the informed sequencing of Forrest Yoga and the body awareness of Iyengar/Alignment Based Yoga. She honors the Kripalu Center for inspiring her to open BBY and also to her BBY teachers who require her to stay on the path every day. Lynne is a leader in the Boston yoga community and inspires her students to be strong, have fun and find their own flow on the mat and on the street.

Being a dancer all her life, Erica has always communicated using movement. She fell in love with yoga at a very young age when she was introduced to it as a way to stay in top dancer shape, but later in life discovered it was so much more than that. As an adult, she developed a regular yoga practice, and noticed that it brought her to feel this sense of balance in her body and her mind. Other physical activity became easier, and she approached difficult situations in life with a much more open attitude. Erica found herself constantly talking to people about yoga, thinking about yoga, reading about yoga, so she decided to see what would happen if she registered for a teacher training in 2010.

Erica now is a full-time yoga teacher and could not be more thrilled to be a part of the incredible yoga community in Boston. Erica teaches an athletic vinyasa flow, with focus on basics and alignment, with some advanced options sprinkled in, and she encourages students to personalize their practice for their own needs. She teaches yoga with a sense of fun and creativity, always has a killer playlist, and her humor and playful spirit is ever present in her classes. Overall, Erica believes that yoga is an accommodating practice, accessible to all people, that requires only loving care for the mind and body and the willingness to keep an open mind and heart. Her number one mission in life is to encourage everyone to love yoga, or at least to try it. Among her many teachers, Erica is indebted to Chanel Luck, Bonnie Argo, and Lynne Begier and is continually inspired by so many of the teachers in the local Boston yoga community who are truly amazing.

I first started practicing yoga regularly around 1997 in high school. My first teacher, Leslie Ballard, was also my chemistry teacher. The class met four days a week in what later also served as my history classroom. The room had high ceilings and large windows on three sides, and I would arrive early to slide the desks out to the walls to make space for class. We circled up as a group on the carpet without yoga mats, and practiced slowly and steadily. I remember loving to turn to face the warm afternoon sun streaming through the windows for sun salutations. At the end of class, Mrs. Ballard would often lead a guided meditation or read a teaching from a Buddhist author. We simply called it yoga, no need to clarify a style or level. We wore comfortable clothes that allowed us to see our knees for alignment, no worries about brand or fabric technology.

As my practice has evolved, deepened and broadened, I often think back to those early practice experiences. Drawing from an eclectic mix of styles, teachers and experience, I hope to help my students find the luxurious qualities of their practice, and that same warmth and community of those sunny afternoon classes - a space to relax, breathe, and connect body, mind and spirit, whether it's in a supportive Restorative pose or a strong alignment-based flow.

I completed my 200 hour teacher training with Nicole Clark and Kate Greer at Back Bay Yoga Studio in Boston, as well as a three month Power of Touch mentorship with Nicole. I continue to be mentored on touch-based therapies by Nicole and assist her in trainings, and also am currently studying craniosacral therapy with Hugh Milne in Berkeley, CA. I have also completed a Yin Yoga teacher training with Josh Summers. In addition to the teachers mentioned above, I am also greatly thankful for the tremendous influence, benefit and life-changing experiences of studying and practicing with all of my other past and present teachers, particularly Peter Crowley, as well as Heather Ash, Lynne Begier, Wendy Cook, Ryan Cunningham, Rochelle Keesler, Kate ODonnell, Nicoline Valkenberg, Ame Wren and too many others to thank in name.

Aaron Cantor is a embodiment teacher who uses ancient and contemporary practices to awaken physical intelligence. He began practicing yoga with his father when he was three and has dedicated his life studying body-mind arts in Japan, Brazil, India, Thailand, and the US. The material he presents in his classes and workshops are gathered from yoga, circus, martial training, capoeira, dance, body-work, meditative practices, athletics, and developmental movement. Aaron is known for his playful, inquiry based approach to teaching awareness through movement. He is mentored by Dr. Tom Alden, a chiropractor, and Yasuhiko Kimura, a philosopher. He teaches internationally and lives in Boston with his sons Bodhi and Jasper.

Ryan was introduced to yoga practice when a friend suggested that it might help his tendinitis; which had developed from years of playing woodwind instruments. From that point on he has been fascinated with both the physical and mental aspects of the practice. Over the years Ryan has been fortunate enough to study with some truly inspiring teachers, including Barbara Benagh, David Nichtern, Ginny Nadler, Cyndi Lee and Judith Lasater. A year of more intense study led him to OM yoga's 200hr teacher training as taught by Sarah Trelease and Joe Miller at Evolution Yoga in Cleveland, Ohio. One of the most potent teachings that Ryan took away from that first training was the practice of meditation, which he continues to practice and refine on a daily basis.

As a teacher, he strives to meld a strong physical practice, with precise alignment cues, and middle path thinking. Ryan also stresses the importance of a restorative practice. He completed Judith Lasater's Relax and Renew training in 2009, and often integrates this work into his classes. Since moving to Boston he has also been fortunate enough to complete both his 500hr certification through OM yoga in NYC and his Masters of Music in Jazz Composition from New England Conservatory. Ryan now serves as the Manager of Back Bay Yoga studio and is grateful to support the BBY community both in the classroom and behind the scenes.

When not at BBY, Ryan conducts the Ryan Cunningham Jazz Orchestra which presents two concerts of original music each year in the Boston area.

In Memorial

I was drawn to Yoga because it gets you connected to the teacher within yourself, you learn by doing and exploring, feeling and breathing. I love to teach because there is nothing more wonderful than watching someone surprise themselves as doors open and freedom emerges.

Yoga gives me the opportunity to breathe deeply, feel fully and connect with the innate wisdom of my body. There are times for grace and ease, strength and grounding, times for ecstatic rapture and expressive movement as well as times for restoration and stillness. I create space for all of this, by drawing upon the steady strength of Forrest, the fluidity of Vinyasa, the explosive movement of Budokon, the insight of Yin and the healing of Restorative practices. My classes are a dynamic flow between postures, breath, and meditation infused with music, movement and playfulness. Using anatomical alignment, visual and auditory cues as well as hands on adjustments, I create Yoga flows that foster healing while cultivating strength and flexibility. Come join me on a journey, an exploration of your strengths, your weaknesses, your heart and life; get connected, turn on your breath and tune into your body.

I am grateful for my teachers, who continue to inspire me and my students who I am constantly learning from. My practice has deepened and expanded through teacher trainings with David Vendetti, Ana Forrest, Paulie Zink, Kripalu and Budokon.

I also find joy off the mat, offering private massage & bodywork sessions, practicing Chi Gung and performing with the Grasshopper Collective.

Cara Gilman is a 200 hour certified yoga teacher who embodies positive energy and optimism. Her motivation stems from the desire to help others feel more connected to themselves in a world where it's challenging to feel present and confident. Cara found yoga, like many do, as a result of pain. As a marathon runner and active athlete, she turned to yoga for the physical benefits—to become stronger and more flexible. However, her practice transformed how she felt in her body and how she approached life.

This transformation led Cara to where she is today—teaching yoga and spin classes to individuals of all experience levels. Cara's classes will replenish you from the inside out; guiding you through a challenging, heat building sequence focused on connecting every movement with breath. Cara integrates the styles and wisdom of her teachers, Lynne Begier, Bonnie Argo, Chanel Luck and Shiva Rea to inspire students, to empower students, and to make students feel connected to all parts of themselves.

Caitlyn first stepped onto the mat in 2005 and found it was the only time when she truly felt at "home" in her body. She continues to practice and study yoga because it constanly challenges her to be better mentally, physically and spiritually and simply because she loves it. In 2009 she completed YogaWorks 200 hr training program and has been teaching full time ever since. Her classes continue to be influenced by the YogaWorks method; blending together Ashtanga, Hatha, and Viniyoga to create a challenging flow with a strong focus on alignment, sprinkled with arm balances and inversions. Caitlyn believes yoga is the opening of new possibilities; it is the opportunity to create a healthier body, clearer mind and sense of peace that translates to the outside world. Her goal as a teacher is to share the joy of yoga and create a fun, safe and challenging environment for students to grow their practice.

Kate Heffernan attended Emerson College earning a degree in both Acting and Theatre Education. After graduation, longing to reconnect to her body the way she had during her acting training - she wandered into her first yoga class. Like many students, Kate came to the mat for its physical benefits, not long after, yoga had begun to seep into every part of her life. Within six months of beginning her practice, she started on her path to become a yoga instructor. In February 2010 Kate completed her 200-hour training through YogaWorks under the instruction of Natasha Rizopoulos. Less than a year after starting teaching, she left her office job and began teaching yoga full-time. As an instructor, Kate is dedicated to providing students with a space to discover their own practice and to respect their needs whether that be a sweaty Vinyasa Flow or a more calming Yin sequence. Kate is known for blending together many styles of yoga to form a dynamic and thoughtful sequence that brings each student to a place of both strength and comfort within their own bodies. In her own practice, Kate is continually drawn to many different teachers and styles of yoga. Currently her most notable influences are Ame Wren, Lynne Begier, Natasha Rizopoulos, and Sadie Nardini. Kate is planning on continuing her yoga training education to eventually complete a 500-hour certification. Kate is beyond grateful to have found yoga as her path, and is continually humbled and inspired by her students and fellow teachers.

Yoga is a life-long healing practice. It’s not about flexibility. You’ll learn to develop attention, disconnect from doubt, and better understand your natural state of being. When you can FULLY participate with asana with a sense of surrender to what’s available to your body, you can move toward ease and become present with the circumstances you’re given. A great side-effect is a lack of dis-ease!

I simply adore the yoga practice, in the geekiest way. After extensive study at South Boston Yoga, I participated in their 500-hour teacher training in 2009. I heard the calling profoundly and took the leap, leaving my career in architecture to wait tables and practice. Today, yoga has moved from a flirtation to a love affair. Nothing makes me more enthusiastic than sharing my experience. I teach actively around Boston and believe that no one style of yoga holds the key to understanding ourselves. My deepest gratitude goes out to the teachers who have influenced me most, opening the doors of my heart (and hamstrings!): David Vendetti, Todd Skoglund, Cat Kabira, and Barbara Benagh.

An athlete most of her life, Goldie has always found herself through forms of expressive body movement. After a severe rock-climbing accident, and a few marathons' worth of wear, Goldie accepted her sister's invitation to a yoga class. Little did Goldie know it would be the first step of a most wondrous personal adventure! One week after moving to San Francisco to further her career in medicine, Goldie found what she likes to call her first "spiritual epiphany." Child's pose and Les Leventhal's teachings were all it took to divert Goldie from the path she thought, to the path she felt. Goldie received her 200hr certification in 2008 from Yoga Tree San Francisco, and credits her teaching inspiration to the influences of Les Leventhal, Janet Stone, Lynne Begier, and David Regelin. Goldie's vinyasa classes are known to be challenging but playful. She strives to inspire her students to know themselves better by moving past their comfort zone, in order to move ever more gracefully when walking off their mat and into this beautiful, crazy world. Cultivating a strong and flexible physical and mental foundation, with a combination of vinyasa flow, funky-fresh beats and lots of heart, will allow you to show up not only for your own well-being, but for those around you. Goldie's class will give you the opportunity to stretch the barriers of what you thought possible.

I stumbled into an Ashtanga class at Gold's Gym in Poughkeepsie, NY in 2003 and have been on a mat ever since. That first class led me on a yogic journey which has helped me heal from years of physical and emotional trauma, reconnect with my body, focus my mind and bring a sense of joy and clarity into my daily life.

That first class gave birth to a practice that includes Vinyasa Flow, Ashtanga, Forrest, Anusara and many other styles and movement modalities. I draw inspiration from them all to create joyful, powerful flow. I have been blessed with amazing teachers like Sondra Loring, Kate Greer and Nicole Clark, who have helped me open the door to practice and teach with devotion and lila or "divine play" I am a firm believer that no matter how crazy the pose – the hardest yoga is off the mat.

I am a RYT 200 graduate of Back Bay Yoga's first teacher training hosted by Lynne Begier and led Kate Greer and Nicole Clark and I am currently pursuing advanced teacher training with Kula Yoga Project in NYC. It is my honor to be able to share that practice with my students – to sweat and play and fly and maybe stumble on deeper truth.

Roberto is a lover and devotee of flow in all forms. He is a student and teacher of Prana Flow® yoga because the style deeply resonates within him through its synthesis of the breath and movement, its roots in the arts and traditions of yoga, Bhakti, Tantra and Ayurveda, and its incorporation of other forms of movement and music to facilitate the great evolutionary process of yoga.

Roberto is deeply grateful to Shiva Rea who is a constant source of inspiration and taught him to "follow the path of the Radiant Life Force," and to his other teacher Paul Muller Ortega with whom he studies the non-dual Tantra of Kashmir Shaivism and the practice of Neelakantha Meditation.

"I believe that love is universal and you can learn something from anyone as long as you are open to this universal principle. The beauty of yoga is: the experience of transcending one's limited view of self; presence, a state of mind, body, and spirit union; and Oneness, connection with all beings and the Great Flow of Consciousness."

Vito is a caring instructor who teaches mindful and challenging classes with a strong connection to alignment and breath. His attention to safety and therapeutics enables students to open body, heart and mind in a deep and sustainable way.

Vito was not born a yogi – it took a neck injury to lead him to the mat in 2004. And with a debilitating fear of public speaking, Vito began teaching with great trepidation in 2007 while working in non-profit management, and serving as a Baptiste Yoga assistant.

Vito informs his teaching through regular study and training of Yoga, anatomy, physiology and bodywork. Vito’s 200 hour trainings include study with Natasha Rizopoulos in the YogaWorks method, and most recently with David Magone in the Pranavayu method. Additional trainings include study with Judith Hanson Lasater, Ana Forrest, Seane Corn, Ellen Heed, and Santosh Karmacharya. To better understand the body and provide a deeper level of healing, Vito completed his Level 1 certification training in Thai Yoga Massage with Shai Plonski through the Lotus Palm School.

In addition to teaching dynamic flow classes, he also loves to share his passion for practice using an Iyengar-inspired Yoga Wall (a.k.a.: Karunta yoga –yoga with straps and harnesses). Vito has taught in a variety of populations and settings including corporate offices, high schools, dance schools, and a nursing home.

With 14 years of competitive cheerleading and gymnastics background, Kimberly brings presence, confidence, joy and passion to all of her classes. Kimberly teaches a vinyasa-style flow with creative sequencing and a strong focus on safe, sound alignment. Kimberly caters towards all-levels and will encourage every student to try new things in a judgement-free environment. She believes that the practice of yoga holds a unique meaning for each practitioner. Yoga is a time for moving prayer, dancing meditation and the cultivation of love; love for the world and love for the self. "When we come to the mat together in community we find refuge, we facilitate change and we have the power to support each other on the confronting path of discovery". Together you will move through a yoga flow aimed at your individual needs with a committed focus on the breath in the hopes of taking you deeper into your personal journey of transformation with grace and strength.

Kimberly completed her 200 hour Teacher Training at Back Bay Yoga Studio under the direction of Lynne Begier and Ame Wren, as well as Hip Hop Teacher Training with Lynne and Goldie Kaufenberg in 2013. She is forever grateful to her teachers, Lynne and Ame, as well as Goldie Kaufenberg and Caitlyn Graham who continue to inspire, motivate and guide her.

Jess found yoga while searching for an alternative to going to the gym and quickly realized that it was much more than a physical work out. After taking a Hip Hop Yoga class with Lynne Begier at Sweat and Soul Yoga it was love at first down dog and Jess began her journey as devoted yoga practitioner. She continued to return to her mat for not only the physical transformation she experienced but also the connection she was building between her mind and body.

Excited to share what she experienced in her own practice Jess decide to complete the 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training at Back Bay Yoga Studio under the direction of Lynne Begier and Ame Wren and also completed Hip Hop Yoga Teacher Training under the direction of Lynne Begier both in June 2012.

Jess' classes guide students through a dynamic sequence designed to build strength and flexibility through breath and thoughtful alignment cues while striving to allow students to escape their minds and move into their bodies through fun music, and a sense of humor.

Jess continues to grow her practice as a curious student who will always be influenced and indebted to her teachers, Lynne Begier, Ame Wren, Goldie Kaufenberg and Caitlyn Graham.

"The moment you value yourself, the whole world values you." ~ Yogi Bhajan

As a former ballet dancer, Natasha knew she had come home when she discovered Yoga in her 20s. That moment of recognition and delight continues to inspire her teaching to this day.

Now a Senior Teacher with YogaWorks and Down Under Yoga, and a writer, teacher, and DVD instructor for Yoga Journal, Natasha is known world-wide for her ability to communicate the essence of sophisticated postures and ideas in ways that have a transformative effect upon one's understanding of Yoga.

A dedicated Ashtanga practitioner for many years, she is equally captivated by the precision of the Iyengar system. These two traditions inform her teaching, creating a dynamic and rigorous blend of intelligently sequenced and aligned Vinyasa Flow.

A runner, gym enthusiast and former dancer, Meghan Rozanski attended her first yoga class about 10 years ago, hoping to stretch through some of her aches and pains.

After her first class, she left drenched in sweat. In the span of just one hour and a half, she had laughed, cried, felt frustration and bliss. Her hair was standing up on its own but the practice offered her the ability to think less about how she looked and more about how her body felt. Yoga offered the best of both worlds - a complete physical workout and a release for the mind and spirit. Meghan fell in love with yoga and began planning events for the Omega Institute where she had the opportunity to meet and practice with yogis and people who inspired her to become a yoga teacher. Meghan's classes are challenging and fun, offering a great physical workout for students of all levels.

I first discovered yoga when I decided on a whim to walk into a free class while still in college. Having a background in martial arts and gymnastics, I was immediately drawn to the physically demanding aspects of the practice. Not shortly after establishing a regular asana practice I began to recognize its potential for healing and self discovery. I believe that cultivating strength, flexibility, and balance in the body can be used to reflect the way that we think and perceive. Every time one steps onto the yoga mat, there is the opportunity for growth and greater understanding of the self, both physically and spiritually. The more we come to understand ourselves, the more we can act in accordance with our true nature, instead of living in repression and inauthenticity.

I have completed the 200 hour Foundational Forrest Yoga training, studying directly under Ana Forrest, as well as a 200 hour vinyasa training through Back Bay Yoga in Boston. In my classes I like to offer a platform upon which students can explore and develop a heightened sense of body awareness through challenging yet fun sequences.

As lifelong health and wellness enthusiast, Sarah has over fifteen years of experience teaching group and private fitness classes. For the past six years she has been teaching various forms of mind body exercise, throughout the Boston area and has taught yoga internationally at Ashiyana Yoga Retreat Centre in Goa, India. Sarah's 200 hour Yoga Alliance Certified Training is attributed to Rolf Gatesand, currently, she is studying towards her 500 hour E-RYT training at Prajna Yoga, with Tias and Surya Little. Recently, she has begun studying with Alison West and will be obtaining her Rope Wall Certification at Yoga Union in Manhattan. Additionally, she has a passion for cooking healthy, delicious food as a means to heal the body and a way to savor life, and have been pursuing classes at the Natural Gourmet Institute for Food & Health also in New York City.

Through the healing synthesis of breath and movement, provided by the flowing practice of Vinyasa, she has developed a study and teaching style which helps to innervate the spirit and nourish the soul. Sarah's classes may contain a hybrid of disciplines but are always rooted in mindful movement, set to the cadence of fluid breath and music of mixed variety. She encourage's students, new and old, to arrive at their mats with nothing more than a sense of compassion for themselves and an openness to their own potential, so that they may be guided from within. Sarah invites her students to work with intention in order to reestablish the mind-body connection, to bring about a deeper awareness and thus a sense of great peace into their daily lives.

After a long athletic career that included competing as a Division I two sport athlete, running half marathons and working in the wellness industry, Kathy took her first Forrest yoga class as a way to enhance her fitness level and core strength. She has since resigned from her athletic endeavors and developed a strong yoga practice which include the many important components of Forrest yoga: core strength, speaking oneʼs truth and feeling within. After years of intensive practices, and completing the Forrest Yoga teacher training, she has found a body that no longer aches, an improved overall strength and a new sense of being grounded.

Kathy began her training in anatomy and physiology at Brown University and extended her knowledge base by studying Anatomy Trains with Eli Thompson, Functional Anatomy for Yoga Instructors with Ellen Heed and Visionary Craniosacral with Hugh Milne. She utilizes her background to create dynamic classes that are safe, engaging, and challenging. Kathy looks forward to sharing her practice with all her students in hopes that they too develop a love for yoga that will change their bodies and lives.

Having occasionally dabbled in yoga strictly as a means of exercise on and off for years, Rachael eventually returned to her mat during a time of stress, uncertainty and lack of direction. After class she was struck by how different she felt upon leaving. The connection of breath with movement and the philosophy of being perfect just the way you are had allowed a weight to be lifted off her shoulders, and with each class after that she became more confident, less competitive with herself and happy in her own skin.

An eagerness to share the gift of support, escape, and connection; to share the gift of yoga led Rachael to the 200 hour teacher training at Back Bay Yoga under the direction of Lynne Begier and Ame Wren.

Her classes strive to provide a safe balance between strength and flexibility by focusing on clear alignment cues and core awareness, while allowing the freedom to open your heart and let go.

Rachael will forever be indebted to her mentors Lynne Begier and Ame Wren as well as the teaching of Alex Austin, David Reglin, Nicole Clark and many other teachers who have inspired her along the way.

Yoga has formed and shaped me. I practice yoga to build the strength it takes to live from my heart. I have been a mover all my life, and some how I was gifted with a mother who knew after years of National competition in Rowing, Track and Field, and Gymnastics, my Body would need a little Tender Love an Care. In 2007 we did are first Yoga teacher training together. Since then I have studied with both International and Local teachers such as Shiva Rea, Dharma Mittra, Jenny Sauer-Klien, Jason Nemer, Bonnie Argo, Chanel Luck, and many more.

In the tale end of 2007 I found a flyer for a AcroYoga workshop @ Go Yoga in Brooklyn. It took three hours to drive there and less then fifteen minutes into class I knew that this practice would be a part of the rest of my life. I became a globe trotting student of Yoga, Acrobatics, and the Healing arts. My studies have taken me across the States, Europe, and all the way to the Southeast of Asia. In 2009 I graduated from Kripalu's 500hr Massage Program and received my LMT here in Massachusetts. In early 2011 I studied with The Thai Massage Circus, a group of five teachers saturated in the traditions of Thai Massage. This same year I became the youngest AcroYoga Teacher in the world.

AcroYoga creates a space for its participants to Play, Laugh, Trust, and Work Hard. It literally takes your practice to a whole new level, on and off your mat. I believe with a family of support, and coaches rooting us on, we are more fearless and with great spotting we will never hit the floor. In every class I strive to inspire my students to practice with the grace of movement excellence, connect, plug in and light up!

Its time to declare your super powers people.
