“We built this studio by staying intentional with our teaching, our sequencing, and our community — one relationship at a time.” — Sam Megraw
In this episode, I’m joined by Sam Megraw, the co-owner of Easy Tiger Yoga KC, a fast-growing Yoga Studio in Kansas City built on thoughtful sequencing, strong partnerships, and a real commitment to community. Sam shares how she went from teaching to running a thriving two-studio operation — and how listening to this podcast helped shape her founders presale before she even opened.
We talk about what actually matters when you’re launching or growing a Yoga Studio: great teaching, consistency, simple systems, and serving the people right in front of you.
In This Episode We Cover:
• Sam’s journey from teacher to studio owner
• The early days of Easy Tiger Yoga and how they grew quickly
• Why intelligent sequencing has become their signature
• How Sam and her partner Emily balance strengths to lead the studio
• What makes a truly great yoga teacher in 2025– Building community through personal connection, names, and follow-up
• How thoughtful onboarding sets students up for long-term success
• Why authenticity and patience matter more than hype– Sam’s current plans for studio growth and teacher development
