Returning to the Roots of Yoga: Our Studio in Zurich Kreis 4
At Evry yoga studio in Kreis 4, we live by our 3 core philosophies: Accessibility, Inclusivity, and Community.
Somewhere along the way, yoga turned into a status symbol. Yoga was never created for luxury markets or high incomes. It started thousands of years ago as a universal practice of breath, body, and inner focus, open to anyone who wanted to learn. As the Indian teacher K. Pattabhi Jois put it:
"Yoga is possible for anybody who really wants it. Yoga is universal. But do not approach yoga with a business mind looking for worldly gain."
We created evry because the yoga studio we wanted to practice in didn't exist in Zurich. We couldn't find a place that combined exceptional teaching, a welcoming community, and a mission to give back, so we built it. Here is how our three guiding philosophies shape our space daily.
1. Accessibility: Fair Pricing Rooted in Hardau
Zurich is an expensive city, but access to high-quality yoga classes should not require deep pockets. Yoga is far more than a physical workout. It calms the nervous system, deepens sleep, releases physical tension, and builds resilience against anxiety, daily stress, and burnout. Practices that offer this kind of mental and physical relief need to be within reach for everyday life.
Our studio sits inside the city-owned low-cost housing at Wohnsiedlung Hardau in Kreis 4. Operating out of municipal housing keeps our rent low, and we pass those savings directly to our students through honest rates.
Concessions: We offer reduced prices for students and KulturLegi holders, and there is no such thing as pricing being a barrier. We always make it happen somehow.
Health Insurance Coverage: Our yoga classes are QualiCert-certified, so most Swiss health insurers refund a portion of your passes.
No Gimmicks: High quality yoga with expert instructors without luxury markups.
Fair Pay: We never cut teacher compensation to keep client costs down. In fact, our instructors earn well above average rates for Zurich yoga studios. Keeping overhead low through our location allows us to look after our team properly while keeping class passes fair for you.2.
2. Inclusivity: Space for Life Stages, Not Just High Margins
Standard studio schedules tend to prioritise packed, fast-paced flows because they bring in the most money. We take the opposite approach. We deliberately run classes for bodies and life stages that conventional studios sometimes ignore.
Pregnancy and Parenthood: Dedicated Prenatal yoga, Postnatal yoga, and Parent & Baby yoga classes. These give parents a calm room to move without needing childcare.
All Ages: Targeted classes for kids and seniors that focus on joint health, coordination, and patience.
Core Practices: We offer high-quality yoga for every experience level. If you are an advanced student or teacher looking for a challenge, you will find sessions to suit you. Our styles include Ashtanga, Rocket, dynamic Vinyasa, Hatha, Yin yoga, and more.
No matter your background or skill level, there is a class and a teacher here for you. If you don't see what you need, let us know and we will prioritise adding it.
3. Community: A True Third Place with Tangible Action
Evry serves as a third place between your home and your job. You can drink a cup of tea after class, talk with your neighbours, or join an afternoon workshop without feeling rushed out the door.
Giving back is built into our calendar rather than treated as an afterthought:
Bi-Weekly Charity Classes: Every two weeks we run pay-what-you-feel sessions dedicated to rotating grassroots initiatives.
Q4 Partner: Frühchen & Neokinder Schweiz: Our Yoga for a Cause classes help support a family when they need it most, and you can be a part of it. This quarter, 100% of proceeds from our pay-what-you-feel classes go directly to Frühchen & Neokinder Schweiz, to support premature infants, critically ill newborns, their families, and medical staff.
Charity Initiatives: We are hosting our first open day for mental health initiatives with more planned for the future.
Come Move With Us. No ego. No pressure. No performance.
Whether you are working towards an advanced arm balance, bringing your newborn to their first class, recovering from an injury, or stopping by for our weekend charity session, you have a place here.
