About the Studio

The most accessible yoga in town.

A full boutique studio experience at a fraction of the cost

The Small World Yoga Community Studio is Nashville’s first and only nonprofit donation-based yoga studio. When you pay for a class here, you directly support our mission to increase access to yoga. You are helping us get free yoga at community centers, prisons, schools, recovery centers, homeless shelters, libraries, and more.

All classes have a $10 suggested minimum donation, with the option to donate more if you are able. You’re getting a full boutique studio experience at a fraction of the cost of a drop-in at other studios, and your money goes to a worthy cause.

The majority of our studio classes are heated Baptiste-inspired power flow classes. The schedule also includes non-heated deep rest (restorative) classes. Every class is open to all levels of students, ranging from beginner to more advanced practitioners.

Class Descriptions

Power Flow

In this powerful and energetic style of yoga, students move from one pose to the next while connecting their breath to their movements. The class is heated to 95 degrees and caters to all levels from beginner to those who are more experienced. This style incorporates regular sequences that become familiar to students, but offers variations to modify, intensify or challenge the body by altering the pace or duration of poses, and the frequency at which they are repeated.

DEEP REST

This unheated, gentle, and slower-paced, restorative-style class is designed to stretch tighter areas and leave you feeling relaxed. We provide props like blocks, bolsters, and blankets, but if you have these props at home, please bring them; we often run out since this class is so popular!

YOGI BEATS

In this music-inspired class, we mix creative vinyasa flows with rhythm-based exercises and dynamic movements to give you a full workout and a greater connection to your physical body and its natural rhythm. Class is gently heated.

KUNDALINI YOGA

This unheated style is a powerful yogic technology which brings deep focus and clarity to the mind, uplifts the spirit, balances and aligns the chakras, cleanses the organs, and regulates the nervous and glandular systems. Comprised of breath work, dynamic movement, mantra, and meditation, the practice restores deep calm and reinvigorates your entire being for your full-spectrum health and wellness.
