Chris Rogers has been practicing yoga for nearly 30 years and teaching for 25. He is the heart behind Centered City Yoga's vision—creating an authentic, community-driven yoga space in Salt Lake City that has stood the test of time since 1999.
Chris first committed himself to his yoga practice at Synergy Yoga in Encinitas, CA—just a few blocks from the Self-Realization Fellowship, where Paramahansa Yogananda wrote Autobiography of a Yogi. For the next five years, he lived a rhythm of surfing and yoga, guided by his personal mantra: surf, yoga, rinse, repeat.
Feeling a deep responsibility to share the transformative power of yoga, Chris spent the following eight years managing a yoga studio, teaching more than fourteen classes a week, developing curriculum, facilitating teacher trainings, and hosting international yoga retreats. His work became an extension of his practice—an ongoing effort to bring yoga to as many people as possible.
