What's Up: She is inspired by art, music, literature, film, and her surroundings, and uses her environment to gain creative inspiration. She has a Bachelor's Degree in Jazz Studies and her passion for music is evident in her classes. Trip to Yoga: To Katya, yoga is joyful movement where one can express, learn from, and connect with the self. She grew up a non-athletic child & young adult who felt complete disconnect from her physical body, and yoga was the tool that changed this. After dabbling in yoga on and off for years, she completed her 200-hour training and dove headfirst into teaching yoga full-time. In Katya's class you are welcome to move with safety, mindfulness, happiness and individuality. She aims to empower students with the tools to learn how they can make yoga their own and find creative physical expression. A dynamic movement experience paired with magnetic playlists, her classes aim to hold space where one can explore, play, get curious, and show up exactly as you are. See you on the mat, space cowboys... https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/450a3b13-b3a9-45ff-a510-6cd015bbf243/IMG_2895.jpg Instructors - Jamie Lipsey, RYT 200 Favorite Yoga Posture: Ardha Chandrasana (Half Moon) Off the Mat: You can find Jamie running, honing her roller skating skills, eyeing her next (sprint) triathlon, and planning her next trip. What’s Up: Jamie's classes are fun, flowy, and sneaky hard. Expect to find shapes that challenge your balance and new ways to move your body around the mat. Trip to Yoga: Jamie stumbled into a vinyasa class in college - she emerged an hour and a half later completely hooked (and more than a little sweaty). Through all the changes that life in DC can throw at you, she has found yoga to be an anchor in all the ups and downs. After practicing for years, she finally took her first yoga teacher training in DC - and immediately became a bit of a training pack rat - from mobility work to somatic movement. She strives to find the balance between effort and stillness - you'll move, sweat, and maybe find some new perspective as you step off your mat. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/1e1a45fc-1e2d-4ab3-ad33-33d1974d3f16/yhdc-takoma-july2021-2h7a5666_51494201400_o.jpg Instructors - Jonathan Wood, eRYT 200 Favorite Yoga Posture: Savasana with a Smile Off the Mat: Jaunts around DC with his fur-friend, Tucker! What’s Up: Yoga is for everyone! You already have the ability, the right body, and the mental motivation to achieve what you want through yoga. Jonathan views his job is to help pull all those things together for students, on and off the mat. Trip to Yoga: Jonathan is a certified yoga teacher and has been practicing for 20+ years. His teaching style places an emphasis on breaking down poses to educate those who are new(er) to yoga, inviting people to opt in for hands-on assists, and keeping movement and alignment accessible through language and demonstrations. Jonathan uses breath work, mindfulness, and humor to support people as they cultivate a yoga practice that feels right in their bodies—and to dispel the myth that we need to look like the photos we see online. This is a commitment Jonathan makes to ensure all bodies and all levels feel comfortable and safe in classes, especially for men and BIPOC people who are often underrepresented in the yoga spaces. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/5e05a53e-90db-439c-9833-05549c18e9a5/Screenshot+2024-01-02+at+8.35.06+AM.png Instructors - Sam Treiman (she/her), RYT 500 Favorite Yoga Posture: Ardha Kapotasana (Half Pigeon) Off the Mat: You’ll often find Sam playing mahjong, baking something fun, or watching the Real Housewives. What’s Up: As a Philly native, Sam lives for a good soft pretzel and Hall & Oates. Trip to Yoga: Sam discovered yoga in college as a way to destress and connect with the DC yogi community. Over time, it’s become her favorite way to nurture both mind and body. She’s passionate about creating accessible flows for all bodies that promote long-term health and mobility. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/358e90f5-0cfa-4820-949d-9f60b278971b/IMG_6363.jpg Instructors - Lydia Watt, RYT 200 Favorite Yoga Posture: Natarajasana (Dancer Pose) Off the Mat: You can find her at the local Dupont Farmers Market, golfing, watching Pittsburgh sports, or exploring DC! What’s Up: Lydia is on a mission to pet every dog in DC. Trip to Yoga: Lydia began practicing yoga as a way to connect with her Indian roots and heal her mind, body and spirit. Within her first handful of classes, she could feel the instant benefits of yoga. Lydia decided to become a certified instructor to break out of her comfort zone and share her faith in the practice. She is dedicated to creating an uplifting and inclusive space for all of her students. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/20443e2c-cc32-4d57-a29f-38bed82d96a9/IMG_2794.jpg Instructors - Carol Bernate, RYT 500 Favorite Yoga Posture: Chapasana (Sugar Cane) Off the Mat: She lives to dance, ask questions, and eat french fries. Tell her where you like to go for a wiggle or a sizzle! What’s Up: She is moved by people around her and wants to understand what moves them. She does UX research by day. Trip to Yoga: Carol has found that freedom emerges when our inner and outer worlds are connected. Embodied movement and meditation help her get in touch with her inner truth and sharing these practices in community with others through yoga nourishes her. She always wants to know how you're finding joy, growth, and challenge in your life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/a1f24375-2f23-4631-b5f5-2cbe08c544a0/IMG_2824.jpg Instructors - Hayley Moniz, RYT 200 Favorite Yoga Posture: Natarajasana (Dancer) Off the Mat: She loves to crochet! What's Up: She adores her two pups, Molly and Jax, and will absolutely show you pictures of them. Trip to Yoga: As a former gymnast-turned-dancer and retired college softball player, Hayley turned to yoga after college as a space to find community and enjoy her workouts again. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/fa404910-e245-4c79-8516-289bb57ed3de/neu_4f23wr052+copy.jpg Instructors - Dr. Malihe Alikhani, RYT 200 Favorite Yoga Posture: Trikonasana (Triangle) Off the Mat: She enjoys hiking, traveling, cooking, and reading. What’s Up: Malihe fosters a baby gorilla named Imbaduko through the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund. Want to see Imbaduko? Just ask for a photo! There are only a few hundred of these incredible mountain gorillas left in the wild, so supporting their care and protection feels like a small but meaningful way to give back. Trip to Yoga: She began practicing yoga a few years ago as part of her healing journey from chronic pain. Yoga quickly evolved into a deep, ongoing commitment to mindful movement, breathwork, and community care. She has deepened her practice through studies in somatics, anatomy, myofascial lines, meditation, Buddhism, and nervous system-informed practices. She’d love to hear how poses feel in your body and about your yoga and meditation journey. Share your stories with her before or after class! :) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/a78bffa6-925e-4d70-9e74-c9876374f973/IMG_2133.JPG Instructors - Dr. Roy Chan (RC), YTT 250 Favorite Yoga Posture: Virabhadrasana (Warrior II) Off the Mat: Roy is an avid reader and a devoted foodie. With a background as a trained linguist, he teaches at universities and enjoys exploring the nuances of languages and culture. What’s Up: New to DC (and the States), Roy is diving into the local scene, and, of course, great food. Trip to Yoga: After completing his yoga teacher training with Marah Arcilla in 2021, Roy began leading yoga classes for small groups and charitable events. Drawing from his experience as an athlete who faced injuries due to improper training, Roy understands the value of mindfulness and personalized instruction. He emphasizes the importance of smaller class sizes and tailored guidance to enhance student benefit. Roy is passionate about making yoga accessible to everyone through the integration of small muscle movements and props. He has experience teaching Hatha, flow, and stretching classes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/bc720538-cfb6-4e88-98f9-e7d6e62d5604/IMG_6478+2.jpg Instructors - Ana Rhodes, YTT 200 Favorite Yoga Posture: Shirshasana (Headstand) Off the Mat: She is a yogi and a CrossFit-er - ask her how they complement each other! Also, She is an avid music lover and would love to hear about your Spotify wrapped or discover weekly! What’s Up: She adores her 2 sweet pups, Tank and Archer, who love to practice with her (no judgment if there's dog hair on her leggings) Trip to Yoga: A ballet injury bought Ana to yoga as a kid and the stress of college brought her back as an adult. She started teaching soon after graduating from FSU (Go Noles!) and fell in love with the ~yoga high~ that follows a challenging class in addition to the sincere friendships she found off the mat. She loves uniting movement and mindfulness, and she strives to cultivate an environment where everyone feels safe, accepted, and empowered. Ana has a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology and works to support the Army's suicide prevention program. Outside of work and yoga, she loves going to concerts, drinking espresso martinis with friends, and exploring DC's food scene. Come smile, laugh, and flow with her - all are welcome! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/f2ddea8e-57bb-4c2d-a644-758ba6875240/E7F3E6A6-E7C0-46E5-AB83-A5A7AE2AED0C_1_105_c.jpg Instructors - Gwen Deitz, YTT 200 Favorite Yoga Posture(s): Eka Pada Urdhva Dhanurasana (Wheel, with one leg extended) & Kapotasana (Pigeon) Off the Mat: Gwen spends her time creating art; she is a photographer of film and digital, a silversmith, a social media manager, and a matcha enthusiast! What’s Up: Gwen is an avid adventurer. She lived in Hawai'i for five years, then spent the past two years solo backpacking the world. She has been to 35 countries - her goal is to visit every continent by the time she turns 30! Trip to Yoga: Gwen has been practicing yoga for over half her life. Last year, she traveled to Rishikesh and trained to be a teacher in the heart of the Himalayas. She is continuously learning, endlessly inspired by the people and energy around her. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/8e40b76e-03d1-4043-b893-2a5fd13b0a5f/SEVA+Soundbath-2677.jpg Instructors - Taylor Roar, RYT 200 Favorite Yoga Posture: Kakasana (Crow) Off the Mat: Taylor can be found with her camera in hand, helping brands and creatives build timeless digital content libraries. Her dog Tinker keeps her company during long editing days. What's Up: Wearing gigantic headphones. Playing cozy video games on Nintendo Switch. Drinking caramel coffee until her tummy hurts. Trip to Yoga: After a decade of debilitating social anxiety, yoga taught Taylor that it is possible to live an embodied life through regulating the nervous system. Now she still stands quietly by the snack bowl at parties – she just feels less awkward about it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/a5b5be1b-1485-4c6b-90f5-46fe8cad7724/Y4.jpeg Instructors - Allie Erenbaum, RYT 200 Favorite Yoga Posture: Ardha Chandrasana (Half-moon) Off the Mat: You can find Allie taking long walks across different DC neighborhoods, spending time with friends, tending to her 50+ houseplants, or singing along (badly) at a concert.

A year later, she received her teaching certification at UDYC as part of the studio's first YTT cohort.

In June of 2024, Avery completed her 200 RYT at Up Dog. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/d42c869f-efe4-42fa-9321-026cd7986a8d/IMG_0769.jpg Instructors - Substitute - Erika Seiber, RYT 200 Favorite Yoga Posture: Baddha Virabhadrasana (Humble Warrior) Off the Mat: She hits up trivia at Red Bear (where they have THE BEST chicken fingers).

She is originally from El Salvador, attended Johns Hopkins and American universities and works in the world of social impact and sustainability: supporting purpose-driven business practices and helping communities and organizations thrive with integrity. What’s Up: Her word for the year is “Energy.” Tuning in, deeply, to what fuels her and letting go of what drains her. She learning to honor her body, mind and soul’s wisdom, protect my joy like it’s sacred, and say yes only to what truly adds to life. It’s less about doing more and more about being well. Trip to Yoga: Alessandra started practicing yoga over a decade ago. What began as a personal practice of curiosity soon became a sanctuary for truth, self-expression, and connection. She discovered that yoga is not about perfect poses, but a powerful connection to self and to one another. Her mantra is:“ Root in Self. Grow in Community.” Alessandra also completed UDYC’s yoga teacher training (YTT) program: “My YTT at Up Dog has deepened my commitment to my practice, exploring the philosophy, embodiment, and spirit of yoga more fully. I decided to do my yoga teacher training (YTT) because I don’t see many instructors or students that look like me, and at times it felt isolating. Because of that, I want to help create spaces where everyone feels seen, celebrated, and safe to move in their own way. I teach classes that are guided by the principles that shaped me: realness, agency, inclusivity, fun, and learning. I offer soulful, intentional and playful flows — where authenticity is honored, community is nurtured, learning is encouraged and students are empowered to explore their own paths while having fun to the tunes of energetic playlists!” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/f220cd99-625d-4e4a-83ab-0359d7c5b234/IMG_1577+Large.jpg Instructors - Substitute - Marley Diligent, RYT 200 Favorite Yoga Pose: Ardha Chandrāsana (Standing Half Moon) Off the Mat: She loves connecting with people in my community - whether it’s exploring the farmers markets around D.C., taking long walks and stopping to take photos of every flower she passes, or traveling to new countries to experience local cultures and delicious food.

She tries to focus on the mind body connection during practice. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/2c105cd8-6125-47f4-ab17-8a7babfea7db/ErinMcNally_photo.jpg Front Desk - Erin McNally Favorite Yoga Posture: Camatkarasana (Wild Thing) Off the Mat: Part home chef, part bookworm, part aspiring underwater explorer. Erin is happiest experimenting with new recipes, getting lost in a compelling read, or learning the ropes as a scuba diving novice. What's Up: Erin is an urban-planning nerd. She loves thinking about how cities are designed and how people shape (and reshape) the places they live. Her TBR list is full of books on cities, how they are built, and how they shape everyday life. Trip to Yoga: Although Erin has been practicing yoga on and off for about a decade, she re-discovered her love for yoga during the COVID-19 pandemic and began to practice regularly. She enjoys the way it challenges both her body and mind, as she learns to master new poses while remaining connected to her breath. She tries to carry lessons from her practice into her daily life - remembering to breathe, reset, and approach challenges with patience and grace. https://www.updogyogacommunity.com/reviews daily 0.75 2025-12-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/24d4e9c7-0a32-4a73-87c3-282fe4734b3e/WCP+-+IG+-+Best+of+D.C.+%28Finalist%29+-+BLANK+%282%29.png https://www.updogyogacommunity.com/udycytt daily 0.75 2026-02-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg Yoga Teacher Training https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg Yoga Teacher Training https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/c5dc2c71-3ee3-457e-b479-a7dc481f20a9/IMG_0415.jpeg Yoga Teacher Training https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/645605c6-8a00-4234-8798-67378f6bf347/IMG_0715.jpeg Yoga Teacher Training https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/11ee5015-c246-49a0-8299-3b2784371ccd/IMG_6002.jpeg Yoga Teacher Training https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/f12d4313-ec27-4d9f-96e0-c2b981ee0797/IMG_5959.jpeg Yoga Teacher Training https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/573c7145-7966-407c-baff-36606fef6bf7/IMG_5909.jpeg Yoga Teacher Training https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/b4032bf9-eb17-47ee-8b61-128d1b27109d/IMG_5791.jpeg Yoga Teacher Training https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/208ea7eb-c314-44f6-92d6-6174b937911e/IMG_4849.jpg Yoga Teacher Training https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/5c66d3be-21e4-4d60-afc3-bd445041a945/IMG_03E8A27EDAF6-1.jpg Yoga Teacher Training https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/3b5de05e-f472-4abe-a962-719bf390ad6a/IMG_0501.jpeg Yoga Teacher Training https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/4148f80a-56d8-4292-a7ef-794f0e13cf4f/Large_logomark-04.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/bcf2b009-ee0f-4a9e-a519-cf5cc1ede7e6/Large_logomark-14.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/ea83d97a-a66c-4a54-90d7-a089dc7147c7/Large_logomark-04.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/414d709a-eb44-4b7c-9fbe-947823472fdd/IMG_5817+4.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/33e96deb-4654-4fbc-9177-88b503435a52/IMG_0727.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/3a92f35e-e696-4359-a51e-2914d0a2bdea/UpDog+Yoga-9.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/2374c2c1-3097-4360-9153-4cce5be35c07/UpDog+Yoga-16.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/629d172fc391da4a4497bb15/4030c383-e11c-4963-aa5b-81b251cd21fc/UpDog+Yoga-107.jpg https://www.updogyogacommunity.com/privategroupclasses daily 0.75 2025-12-18 https://www.updogyogacommunity.com/prenatal-postpartum daily 0.75 2025-12-17
