With the largest yoga facility in the Memphis area, salt caves for restorative yoga , and an outdoor yoga garden, one can never run out of options.

★★★★★ — Leah, Jun 2021

I was afraid to try yoga because I'd had bad experiences with "clique classes" in other locations. Everybody has been very open, welcoming, and helpful. Many of the classes are suited to beginners and the instructors have been great about offering modifications for those of us who are baby beginners.

★★★★★ — Chelsea, Apr 2019

I am so thankful to have found Better Bodies Yoga. The teachers are wonderful and have helped me so much! I am feeling better everyday and look forward to every class. The salt caves are amazing and have been helping my allergy issues tremendously.

Teacher training at Better Bodies Yoga

Better Bodies Yoga comes up for teacher training — confirmed on their own site. If you're thinking about becoming an instructor, a few things are worth asking up front. First, which certification the program leads to — most hot-yoga trainings are Yoga Alliance registered (RYT-200 or RYT-500), and the style matters: a Bikram or hot-power lineage trains differently than a hot-vinyasa or sculpt one. Second, the schedule and prerequisites — cohorts often run in intensive weekend blocks or over several months, and many studios want you practicing regularly there first. Third, cost and payment plans, and whether tuition includes an unlimited membership for the training period. Teacher training is a real commitment of time and money, so it's worth a call or an info session before you enroll.

Your first hot yoga class at Better Bodies Yoga

Nervous about your first hot class? Almost everyone is, and a good studio expects beginners to walk in the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: the room is heated, so it feels intense for the first few minutes — rest in child's pose any time you need to, no one will bat an eye. Hydrate: drink water through the day before class, not just as you arrive, and bring a bottle. What to bring: a mat and towel (or rent them here), water, and a change of clothes; wear something light you don't mind sweating through, and skip a heavy meal in the couple of hours beforehand. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign in and set up. It gets easier fast — most people say their third class feels completely different from their first.

Heat and intense exercise aren't right for everyone — if you're pregnant or have heart, blood-pressure, or other health concerns, check with a doctor before your first hot class.
