Yoga classes - beyond the yoga studio

Learn more about Ali Matt, the lead teacher and creator of the Twist Yoga Teacher Training programs.

Ali brings her incredible education and deep knowledge of yoga to non-traditional settings as well as her regular in-studio students. She’s taught professional athletes, stressed out Police Officers, corporate teams, youth teams, and more.

One of the core values in the Twist Yoga Teacher Training is truly teaching our students how to create a yoga sequence for ANYone. By understanding the mechanics behind the poses, Ali teaches you why each shape should be ordered in the practice. We firmly believe that memorizing a “set sequence” does not prepare a new teacher for the real world. Ali’s vast experience with people of all ages and mobility ranges sets up a learning environment that leaves the graduates with confidence in their abilities to serve the polulation that speaks to them.

1. Ali has been teaching yoga, meditation, mindfulness and breathing techniques to businesses and corporations throughout the Portland area. She teaches poses people can do at their desk or in limited spaces.

2. Ali has also been leading four classes a week at the local City Police Department. She leads the officers in 45 minutes of yoga and mobility and 15 minutes of mindfulness.

If you are looking for a in-person yoga teacher training program in the Portland area or a certified virtual Yoga Teacher Training, look no further. Ali is one of the most well respected, deeply studied, and experienced teacher on the West Coast.
