EAST NASHVILLE — The first commercial tenants at Martin Corner's 37206 Lofts are moving in.

Leah Lillios, founder of Kali Yuga Yoga, held her first classes in the new space at Fatherland and 11th earlier this month. Platinum Hair Salon & Boutique, owned by Debbie Sorensan, has also opened, holding its grand opening last week.

Kali Yuga's 900-square-foot space on Fatherland Avenue is still under construction, but will house a 600-square-foot studio hosting a variety of yoga classes including Vinyasa, Restorative Yoga and Barkan Method Hot Yoga.

"I'm very excited to share my passion for yoga and educate others about its healing benefits here in the East End," Lillios said. "The studio is a perfect opportunity to grow our yoga community and East Nashville is such a great neighborhood as well."

Lillios is a trained modern dancer and has been practicing yoga for over eight years. She has been teaching at local studios including Magnolia Day Spa in East Nashville and at the Cool Springs YMCA for the past five years. Lessons are slated to begin Jan. 8 with a grand opening planned for later in the month. For more information, call 297-6484.

Platinum Hair Salon & Boutique offers cuts, color, highlights, straightening and styling, along with facials, microderm, manicures and pedicures. Clients can enjoy a glass of wine or cup of tea while processing in the natural sunlight through the expansive window front.

"We have a strong team of professionals who have come together from all over the country to create a positive and innovative difference for our clients," Sorensan said. "Our objective is to make our customers look great, feel great and have a great time." Sorensan opened up her first salon, Extreme, four years ago.
