Yoga at the Museum

Every 2nd and 3rd Friday of the month, end your week with gentle yoga at the McClung Museum. Enjoy breathing, relaxing movements, and stretching, with some calm, meditative moments to ease you into your Friday. We encourage you to wear comfortable clothes that you can move in and bring a yoga mat. Forgot your mat or don't have one? No problem! The museum has a limited supply of mats to loan. No experience is necessary.

About the Instructors:

Megan Fields just celebrated her 20th anniversary at UT and currently serves as the Director of Public Speaking.  She also lives on campus as a sorority house director and enjoys supporting students.  In her free time, she teaches yoga and meditation and enjoys reading and hiking.  Her life goal is to share mindfulness practices to stay grounded in this fast-paced, distracted culture.

Tristen Sellers' yoga journey began at the age of 12, sparked by an early fascination with India and Hindu philosophy. She attended her first yoga class in 2006 at a local community center in Knoxville, where she immediately felt a deep connection to the practice. She completed her 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training in 2021 under the guidance of Heather Hutcheson and Zak Stinnett and has since taught a diverse range of classes, blending mindful movement, anatomical awareness, and energetic exploration. Outside of her professional work, Tristen enjoys spending time with her family, friends, and animals, immersing herself in nature, listening to music, reading, and continually expanding her knowledge across a wide range of subjects.

Funding for the McClung Museum’s educational programming has been provided by the Knox County Tourism Consortium.
