ABOUT MATT RYAN

" I have now practiced yoga for nine years and taught for the last seven, although based in Manchester now — I have also taught in both India and Europe as well as hosting retreats in the UK.

It feels like an honour to be able to pass on what I have learnt to anyone who is interested. My time on the mat has taught me everything from humility to having a sense of humour. I have also learnt that there are no short cuts in yoga — you can read all the books in Waterstones (there's plenty - I've bought most of them!) but at the end of the day my realisation is that there is no substitute for time spent on the mat.

Your yoga practice can be just sitting on the mat and breathing — in fact breathing is the only part of the practice that is compulsory in my classes — how much physical yoga you do is entirely up to you.

I study annually with Guruji Sri K Pattabhis Jois and Sharath Rangaswamy in Mysore, and I continue my yoga studies in the UK with Hamish Hendry at Astanga London. I am also currently working on the advanced B of the Ashtanga system having already completed the first 3 sequences."
