Love the studio and instructors. Not sure why but classes sometimes have dogs walking through the studio at the beginning. Not my favorite thing as I’m allergic to dogs. Wish they would advertise which classes will have dogs

I have tried nearly all of the yoga studios in the area and recommend People’s Yoga the most! The atmosphere is clean and calm. All of the instructors are kind and welcoming. Misty is a phenomenal instructor and provides challenge, with a balance of rest and connection within. I could not recommend People’s Yoga more!

Privates with Misty have transformed my health, improved my flexibility/strength, reduced my stress, and improved my mental health. I am grateful for the opportunity to work with her and some of the other instructors that I've taken classes with at People's Yoga. People's Yoga has been an integral part of my healing journey over the last 2 years.

Response from the owner · a week ago
Thank you for your kind words about our studio and instructors! We’re so glad you’ve enjoyed your classes with us. I’m Misty, the owner of Peoples Yoga, and the dogs you’re referring to are my two very well-trained and groomed golden retrievers. They occasionally accompany me to the studio and are very rarely walking through the practice spaces. They also hold a special place in our community. I work privately with a variety of students, including wheelchair users and trauma survivors, who have developed wonderful relationships with the dogs and genuinely look forward to seeing them each week. That said, I completely understand that not everyone is comfortable around dogs, especially those with allergies. We strive to make Peoples Yoga a welcoming and inclusive space for everyone, and I appreciate you bringing this to my attention. I’ll be more mindful of their presence during regular classes. Thank you again for practicing with us and for sharing your feedback! Misty Owner, Peoples Yoga

Rosa Moore3 reviewsTotal number of Google reviews Rosa has written across all businesses on Google Maps, not just this one.
Review from Google · view on GoogleThe classes and teachers at Peoples Yoga are exceptional. I have been practicing yoga pretty regularly for about 8 years, the last 1.5 at Peoples, and it is the best studio experience I've had. The classes are thoughtfully designed and varied for all needs and interests, and the teachers are highly knowledgeable and open-minded (I've taken classes with Misty, Shiloh, Lindsay, Carla, Gabrielle, Dhanashree, and Sabrina and they have all been excellent). Highly recommended whether you are new to yoga or looking to improve and expand your practice!! I especially like the intermediate classes for building strength and interoception and trying challenging poses, but I have also had great experiences with the gentle yoga classes and pilates.
