Make a 6-week commitment to your practice as we move into Spring. Start your week with a strong, grounding, rhythmic vinyasa flow that awakens every sinew of your body and enlivens your creativity.

Challenge and develop your yoga practice and nourish your well-being. Lily Dwyer Begg Yoga is devoted to supporting practitioners of all levels develop a strong connection to center, delight in the joy of creative embodiment, trust in the wisdom of their bodies, and invite more compassion and curiosity into their lives. You can expect a supportive space to learn new techniques, refine your practice through rhythmic breath based flow and repetition, and deepen your connection to your own innate body wisdom.

Detangle tense spots with the salve of ujjayi breathing, the warm room (gently heated but not to the extreme), and the sweetness of community to restore your inner flow and vitality. Make space to release what is no longer yours to carry so you can flow into the week ahead with grace, lightness, and clarity. Open your body. Quiet your mind. Strengthen your center.

See you on your mat!

I find your teaching incredibly skillful, very detailed and very clear. Your classes are full of intimate and effective body knowledge. It is luscious to melt into that level of detail and specificity and that richness of practice.

-Ariana Oakland, CA

Lily's classes are unmatched in creativity and fun! Lily builds a fire from the deepest layers out. Each class is so well thought out, so well delivered, and an engaging experience from start to finish. Through the body, Lily guides me back me back to myself. I leave each class inspired both as a teacher and a student.

What to Expect:

Come prepared to sweat, feel, breathe deeply, and meet yourself where you are. I am skillful at breaking down advanced asana AND offering each practitioner an appropriate foothold. The room is moderately heated and there will be music. Class flows at a breath pace with focused attention to cuing alignment.

Bring your own mat, 2 blocks, 1 strap, and a water bottle.

For your comfort on the mat, it is best to avoid eating for two hours before class starts and pre-hydrate throughout the day ahead of class.

Class Cancellations:

In the emergency case that I am sick, I will find an appropriate sub with equivalent skill level and experience teaching yoga so I don’t spread my germs.

Student Testimonials

Testimonials

After taking a workshop with Lily I was hooked on her yoga teaching. She has a soft but strong demeanor, she’s quite the force! She has an in-depth knowledge of all aspects of yoga and anatomy, making her the perfect yoga instructor. During the workshop she made suggestions that really helped me visualize poses. Execute them accurately, and get the most out of each minute of yoga! Look forward to more classes with Lily!

-Jessica Dibenedetto

As I have shared with you before while sobbing your practice quickly became a home for me. I’ve never had a teacher combine the spiritual and physical aspects of yoga so beautifully. I learn something new every time, whether it’s about myself, my practice, my body, a pose, etc. I’m so thankful for you as a teacher!!

-Katy Davis

I took my first yoga class in the studio with Lily over three years ago, and I was immediately hooked. Her teaching style is creative, challenging, nurturing and fun (there’s usually something to chuckle about in class)! I can confidently say I’ve never practiced with a yoga teacher who is so knowledgeable about human anatomy, and her depth of knowledge really allows her to create unique and thoughtful practices. This became even more apparent during our at home practice during covid. Lily has adapted her teaching to a virtual platform so adeptly, that I feel that I am still getting “hands-on” teaching, giving me the confidence to experiment with new poses (handstands!) and to keep refining the foundations of my practice (remembering to breathe!). She is an amazing teacher—patient, helpful, and encouraging you to find your “edge” while being mindful of listening to your body and promoting your overall well-being. It is truly a privilege to practice with Lily!
