A community-focused yoga center in the heart of Memphis
I started Evergreen Yoga Center in 2006 with the hope of creating a friendly, accepting and welcoming place for anyone to experience yoga.
Come as you are!
Our instructors can teach to any skill level, adapting poses, props and pace to fit each student’s individual needs. Our students experience a welcoming practice environment at Evergreen, designed to challenge each person according to their own capacity.
Founded by Certified Iyengar Yoga Teacher Leah Nichols, Evergreen Yoga Center offers classes rooted in the Iyengar Yoga tradition. Iyengar Yoga is taught systematically in a manner designed to help students integrate yoga beyond the studio and into their daily lives. Each class forms the building blocks for future growth.
And everyone (including you!) is encouraged to come as they are.
