The most talented group of women and men in the industry…. But we’re partial.

Carrie Tyler, RYT, PYT Dover Yoga and Dover Pilates owner and studio director has been practicing yoga and Pilates since the late 90's and teaching both since 2001. She is the creator of Rasa Yoga she is known for her playful style of teaching, her strong knowledge of anatomy and alignment, her understanding of yogic philosophy, and how the body moves and works on both energetic and physical levels. Her passion for anatomy and movement comes from her kinesiology background and experience over the last 20 years in modern & African dance, aerial fabric, classical figure drawing, and studies in various forms of yoga. It is her belief that yoga and Pilates are appropriate for every body and that through the process of yoga one can unleash their true energetic and creative potential. Carrie considers yoga, Pilates and complimentary healing therapies to be preventative medicine, and adheres to the belief that regular practice and self care can reconcile many imbalances and dis"eases" of the body. She has her 500hr PYT (professional yoga therapist) and 200hr RYT certification through Integrative Yoga Therapy, and is currently pursuing a degree in Exercise Science/ Kinesiology at the University of New Hampshire. Her certifications in Pilates Mat and Reformer work are from the highly respected Power Pilates Institute. In addition Carrie holds certifications in Prenatal Yoga, Thai Bodywork, and Reiki. In addition to teaching yoga classes, Pilates classes, and leading workshops and retreats in New England and abroad, Carrie trains future yoga teachers alongside Daniel Orlansky in a 200hr yoga teacher training, The Yoga of Energy Flow.

Jennifer Mathieson, RYT, In the early summer of 2008 Jennifer came on as co-owner and director of Dover Yoga and Dover Pilates. She has been practicing yoga for the past 6 and a half years and recently graduated from the 200hr Yoga of Energy Flow Teacher training program run by Carrie Tyler and Daniel Orlansky.

Sitting still has never been an area of strength of hers, but over the years Jennifer has realized that being still and being present in the moment with your breath is a beautiful art form that is obtainable to anyone who is willing to be patient and practice. To Jen, the mind/body/breath connection is a valuable tool on and off the mat. It is her passion to help others make that connection through their own practice. Jennifer approaches her classes with a teaching style focused around laughter, movement and breath. She teaches gentle Hatha, Hatha flow and Yin Yoga. Jennifer is available for on one on private instruction in addition to her regular class and workshop schedule. Click Here for Jennifer's Story

Lisa Flynn, Founder of ChildLight Yoga, noticed that when her two young children would join her morning yoga practice, it was not only fun for them, but seemed to improve their focus and mood as well. While researching yoga for babies, toddlers and older children, she quickly realized that the benefits of yoga can and should be enjoyed by people of all ages, 3 weeks old to 100+. Lisa studied yoga for children with Marsha Metzger and holds an advanced level Color Me Yoga for Children^TM certification. She also holds YogaEd^TM and Itsy Bitsy Yoga® certifications and has recently studied yoga for special needs children with Craig Hanauer of Every Kid's Yoga, and the healing art of Reiki with Eeve Crowe. She is looking forward to participating in the 200hr Yoga of Energy Flow training with Carrie Tyler of Dover Yoga Studio. Lisa's company, ChildLight Yoga (www.childlightyoga.com), is dedicated to encouraging an early practice of yoga and relaxation. Her mission is to spread the amazing gifts of yoga to all children everywhere - through classes, camps, teacher trainings, in-school programs and more. Lisa's Story
