Brian O’dea
Yoga

Brian O’Dea teaches what he describes as a “gooey-yet-firm-mid-tempo-flow” designed to bring the class to a simmer before melting into deeper stretches. He aims to create a fun classroom environment for all skill levels to explore the mind-body connection through the breath, movement, and stillness of yoga. Brian started yoga as a New Year’s resolution way back in 2010, somehow actually stuck with it, and received his 200-RYT certification in 2020. In his spare time, he enjoys traveling, writing, fighting (in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu), and then writing about said traveling and fighting when he returns home.
