Rare Earth Yoga grew out of a love of the outdoors, a search for inner awareness, and a desire to teach others useable skills to better their own unique path through life.

We are a relatively new Yoga company and as our students expand so will our offerings. Our focus is on the Northern Virginia, DC Metro area due to the variety of outdoor activities available and the need for people to interact with Nature while using Yoga to relax and enjoy life.

Our instructors are Yoga Alliance registered at the 200 hour or greater levels of experience. We are experienced in a variety of teaching venues and can assist you in finding a type of Yoga practice that suits your personal needs.

Founder/Instructor: Randy Siders, RYT

Randy took the long and winding path to Yoga from the mountains of Colorado and Idaho, then 20 years around the globe as a military aviator and eventually to northern Virginia. He is an experienced sea kayak guide, outdoor skills instructor, and avid snowboarder. In Yoga, Randy found the connection he sought for a physical aspect to his meditation practice. The transformation was gradual but the aches and pains from traditional forms of exercise disappeared and the enjoyment of his outdoor ventures were highly enhanced. As a long time instructor in other arenas, Randy enrolled in U.S.1 Yoga Teacher Training at Little River Yoga to further understand Yoga philosophy and achieve the skills to assist others in connecting Yoga with Nature. His classes concentrate on asana foundations and techniques.
