“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

The Brothers Ortiz
The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
