Dena has been practicing yoga for over 10 years and teaching for 6 years. She teaches slower paced classes that focus on breath awareness, building strength, and increasing stability and mobility. Her teaching is guided by the beliefs that yoga connects you with your own innate wisdom, provides exceptional practices for living a full and happy life, and is accessible for every kind of body. Dena's classes are both inviting for new students and satisfying for experienced practitioners. Dena lives a short-walk from the studio with her husband, twin daughters, dog, and cats.

Sydnea Lewis


Gentle, Vinyasa
What started out as a way to reach youth in D.C., Sydnea has been teaching yoga and dance in the D.C. area since 2015. Initially only certified to teach children through Circle Yoga, Sydnea went on to get her 200hr Hatha Certification from Yoga District which set her on a journey that she could have never expected.
Sydnea holds a BFA in Graphic Design from Howard University and a Master’s of Graphic Design from The Florence Design Academy, and has been working in the design and marketing field for almost 8 years.
Sydnea has been able to use her innate creative abilities to hone in on the movement and stillness of the mind, body, and spirit. Yoga has been a part of her life for almost a decade, and her practice has helped her grow stronger, more flexible and fearless, both on and off the mat.
With the certifications Sydnea has attained so far she has been able to move, touch and inspire not only the lives of children in schools but adults as well. She truly believes that yoga can be for everyone – regardless of age, race & background – and is striving to share that with her peers.
