Thought it was sciatica, but after doing more reading, learned about periformis syndrome and started doing yoga and other exercises specifically to target the nerves in that area, and making sure I had rest days as well. The pain is pretty much gone, just have occasional stiffness and mild soreness when I overdo it, but I'm keeping up with the stretches (the yoga and then the hip abduction ones like the clamshell, side leg lifts, etc. from the link below)

You were getting sciatic pain caused by your performis muscle pressing on your sciatic nerve. I had the same thing and got MAT treatments and exercises that got rid of it in about a month. Sciatic pain is usually caused by some muscle or tendon that presses on the sciatic nerve, and the performis is a common culprit.
