About Lucid Yoga
Where the path is inward, and the journey is yours.
Why ‘Lucid’?
At Lucid Yoga, the principle of lucidity is central to our approach. We chose the name Lucid Yoga to emphasize our deep commitment to fostering clarity, awareness, and intention within your yoga practice and throughout your daily life. Through mindful movement and breathwork in our diverse range of classes, we aim to cultivate this profound inner clarity. This empowers you to forge a stronger connection with your body and mind, leading to greater self understanding, purpose, and a more balanced existence.
The concept of lucidity resonates deeply within yogic philosophy, particularly as explored in the Yoga Sutras. These foundational teachings emphasize the importance of clear perception, allowing us to understand reality without distortion. Following yoga’s path to still the fluctuations of the mind to reveal our true nature, Lucid Yoga aims to create a space where this pursuit of stillness is supported. By developing focused attention both internally and externally, we empower ourselves to navigate life with greater awareness and make conscious choices aligned with our deepest values. This pursuit of lucidity, rooted in the wisdom of yoga, is the guiding light of our studio and the foundation of our practice.

The Lucid Yoga Experience
You deserve more than just instruction; you deserve guidance that empowers, supports, and inspires.
The Four Threads
At Lucid Yoga, our practice is woven with four essential threads: clarity, compassion, contentment, and connection. We foster compassion by creating a warm, inclusive space where you feel deeply supported, truly seen, and inherently valued. Through cultivating contentment, we invite you to fully embrace the present moment with heartfelt gratitude and gentle self-acceptance. And with connection, we honor yoga as a shared journey, one that beautifully nurtures personal growth, deepens meaningful relationships, and inspires profound transformation both on and off the mat.

Our Story
Lucid Yoga started as a feeling. The sense that yoga is more than just movement, that clarity comes not from pushing harder but from learning to listen. The belief that a yoga studio should feel like a place to land, not just a place to sweat.
We’re Trisha and Jason, the owners of Lucid Yoga. Yoga has been a huge part of both of our lives for years, shaping the way we move, think, and connect.
I (Trisha) started practicing in 2014 in Evansville, Indiana, and completed my 200-hour teacher training in 2015. Over time, I developed deep reverence for the yoga tradition and immense gratitude for the teachers and students who have guided me. I always knew yoga was more than just asana, but that understanding took on a new depth after I broke my leg in 2022. Coming back to practice with a changed body and a new perspective deepened my understanding that yoga is a path to clarity, compassion, connection, and contentment. That realization helped shape the vision for Lucid Yoga.
Jason has been practicing yoga even longer than I have, drawn to both the physical benefits and the way it creates balance in daily life. He grew up in Middleburg Heights and later he made Berea his home, building a strong connection to the city and its downtown. With a background in finance and a love for yoga, opening this studio became a meaningful way to merge his skills and passions. He has always wanted to build something that contributes to and strengthens the community, and Lucid Yoga is a reflection of that.
For both of us, a yoga studio feels like the perfect opportunity, not just because we practice, but because we have seen firsthand how yoga brings people closer to themselves and to each other. Lucid Yoga is built on the idea that yoga is an inward journey, one that looks different for everyone. Some days it is about finding strength. Other days it is about slowing down. Maybe it is just taking an hour for yourself in the middle of a busy week. However you show up, you belong here.We are so excited to share Lucid Yoga with you. This is your practice. We are just here to support it.
