Come To Yoga with Barbara Lyon - Cambridge, Massachusetts

RALPH T.

I've taken yoga lessons with Barbara on-line. As a senior , I appreciate her patience and understanding in terms of her designing a yoga practice for my age group. She's extremely dedicated to providing answers to our questions and will design yoga activities based on the needs of her students. I highly recommend her as a yoga teacher for students of all ages.

I joined Barbara's Come To Yoga class over four years ago at the start of the COVID pandemic via Zoom. I have taken yoga classes with a variety of instructors and Barbara is by far the best and most outstanding yoga instructor all around.

I cannot speak highly enough about her through knowledge of the human body, expertise and ease in following her approach to teaching yoga. Barbara makes her Come to Yoga classes easy to follow. She physically demonstrates each move and verbally walks her students through the process of how to safely enter, set themselve up and hold each move or pose. She offers alternatives to and with taking a pose or executing a move so as not to exacerbate any injuries or feeling of pain.

I feel my body’s flexibility, stamina and strength building with every class I have participated in and it feels wonderful!! Thank you Barbara for being there and helping me keep my body in tune and alive!

I’ve been attending Barbara Lyon’s Gentle Yoga for 55+ and Beginners class for approximately 7 years. Her classes have definitely helped me to maintain and improve my overall flexibility, strength, and balance. Her classes are always well planned, thoughtful and well rounded. She is an experienced and knowledgeable instructor with a positive, energetic and encouraging personality. I could not recommend her class any more highly.

Barbara Lyon is a terrific yoga teacher in all the ways that count. I love her class, Gentle Yoga for 55+ and Beginners. Each session focuses on a particular part of the body and/or goal. For example, yoga for a more flexible back was one session. Another focused on the pelvic floor, hamstrings and groins.
She gives easy-to-follow instruction and makes everyone feel welcome.

I have been a yoga student of Barbara Lyon's for many years. Her classes are always great and enjoyable. Each one has a theme and she never seems to run out of ideas. Each class is carefully constructed. Her directions are clear and she always includes modifications. This makes her classes accessible to everybody. I hope to continue with Barbara forever!

Barbara is a very positive, knowledgeable and well organized yoga instructor. Her sessions are well planned and she gives helpful instructions on the various yoga positions and modifications. The studio is comfortable and has all the necessary props. I leave each session feeling physically and mentally refreshed.

I think Barbara is amazing. She pulls her yoga practice from all over the map. It's not just about stretching. It's about learning about our bodies. Understanding the bones, the tissues, the nervous systems. And I walk taller. I keep my hips under my shoulders. I protect my tender knees. I stretch my toes. Yeah, I'll work with her for a long time.

Barbara is my sister, so this may seem biased, but honestly she's the best yoga instructor I've ever had. I've been zooming classes since the pandemic, and they've saved this semi-senior body. She's careful, intelligent, and completely supportive. She has a gift.
