Peoples Yoga is a welcoming space that supports students, as well as teachers. I am so grateful to come in and experience all the details and love that have been put into the studio. There are options for experiencing yoga in different ways, whether you want to have an adaptive yoga class, therapeutic, functional movement, spiritual, flow, or yoga with props. The teachers are treated as collaborators that are able to contribute ideas for making the space special and are paid fairly. The owner of the studio, Misty, works hard to not have yoga philosophy at odds with the business of owning the studio. I admire this so much. The teacher training program gathers all the components that make up yoga and makes them accessible in a nurturing way. This is not a yoga cult type atmosphere with top down leadership. It is a loving community of those who are passionate about yoga and want to share it. There are conversations about how to make yoga accessible to all, aiming for diversity and inclusion. Highly recommend that you try out as many classes on the schedule as you can and see what resonates. Beautiful studio with beautiful intentions. Definitely check it out! Namaste' read more

Peoples Yoga is an absolute gem of a studio, from the variety of classes to the superb quality of teachers to the teacher training program led by studio owner, Misty--every aspect of what is offered here is the best around. Each teacher has their own unique style, so there's something for everyone. I've learned so much at Peoples Yoga about everything from the philosophy of yoga to the biomechanics of my unique body, I've made friends here, and I'm truly grateful to be part of this community. Misty has been especially accommodating during the COVID-19 pandemic to ensure the safety of all teachers and students and has been committed to offering quality classes virtually and figuring out ways students can access props to safely practice at home. I've always appreciated Misty's commitment to safety in the practice of yoga, and I'm especially grateful for it during this global health crisis. read more

Everyone knows how wonderful yoga is for many reasons. (If you don't know yet, you definitely need to give it a try!) But a great instructor makes all the difference. I've practiced for many years, the last 6 with Misty (now in her own studio). She is a marvel at getting my my mind to accept what my body can do, while getting my body to do things my mind may question at first. All the while I'm building strength, flexibility, agility, faith, acceptance, confidence, and inner peace. She has masterfully chosen instructors for the studio that promote the same principles and practices. You can't go wrong with any class at Peoples Yoga. I am thrilled to be part of this community and would love to see others enjoy the same benefits. The world can benefit from more yoga!! read more

Ellen and George Leroi write: [Ellen:] I first met Misty at the Mindful Movement facility (no longer in business) in East Lansing. Following bilateral hip replacements, I was leery of learning yoga; yet enrollment in Misty's Yoga For Arthritis class allowed me to improve movement and suppleness. In addition to classes, I take private lessons from Misty as several subsequent surgeries allow, with positive effects on my well-being. [George:] I was impressed with Ellen's increasing facility, and subsequently enrolled in Misty's Men's Yoga class. Now, at age 84, I continue to take a class and a private lesson from Misty every week when my schedule permits. I am much more mobile, supple, stronger and mindful, owing to Misty's tutelage. read more

Finally found my yoga home! The teachers at People's Yoga are so knowledgeable and compassionate. They know me and my health background and are very concious of my limitations, always offering alternative poses. This studio really believes in accessibility and the idea that yoga is for everyone. They offer classes at all levels and their students are diverse in body type, age, and ability. No elitest attitudes, no insecurity because I don't have the right equipment or clothes, no being worried that I can't do the poses. About covid: People's Yoga is offering lots of classes online. The best part- if you miss one that you signed up for, they'll send you a recording so that you can take any online classes on your schedule! read more

Peoples Yoga Studio is a wonderful place to practice your yoga, bond with other super folks, or practice virtually online. It is an inviting business as you'll discover when you meet proprietor Misty Belous or one of her excellent teachers. Located just south of downtown on Washington Avenue in REO Town. Peoples is also a great place to attain your Teacher Training certification (200-hour~ which I did or 500-hour) through Yoga Alliance. I hope to see you in an actual or virtual class real soon!

I can't say enough good things about Peoples Yoga. I've always wanted to try yoga not just for the physical benefits but for the mental benefits as well. Misty and Shiloh made me feel so welcome and although the classes are virtual right now, I love being able to participate live and feel that sense of community. These classes have helped me relax and reduce my anxiety in the midst of the Covid crisis we are living. I love how much better my mind, body and soul feel. I am so thankful I found this studio. I would highly recommend. read more

People's Yoga is amazing. They have adapted to the virtual environment during the pandemic seamlessly. This is a new, small business that needs community support. The owner has sponsored sexual assault survivors at MSU and other charities. She is in the community to stay. She hires the best of the best. I'm on my third package, and it is well worth the money!! read more
