I never had a yoga class before, am not in good shape, and have limited flexibility. I had an absolutely lovely experience from website to taking my first class. The website has great functionality and was very easy to gather information from and to schedule a class. When I arrived the person at the front desk must have gathered I was a new student, greeted me by name and helped direct me and introduced me to the instructor. The instructor was very kind, making note of my limitations and gently helping me understand things I was doing wrong, giving instructions directly and indirectly. I actually surprised myself being able to do things I didn't expect I was capable of. You don't have to be able to everything perfectly, just what is comfortable. It was also more meditative than I expected which I really enjoyed. After the class some very nice classmates were very complimentary and welcoming. I am sure I will get more out of these classes as I become more familiar with yoga. And I definitely will be continuing. I did a pretty wide internet search from rec center to other schools in the area and am glad I settled on this one. It was exactly what I was looking for. read more

I've driven by this place a million times and finally bothered to check their website out. While it's not my typical form of yoga, it was a really nice studio and I ended up doing a yoga workshop for forgiveness. They have tons of different classes here and the owner Brian is super nice. The locations very relaxing when you first walk in and smells fabulous. They have a lobby area where you can buy different items and some clothing, and it's really spacious here. The class I did was about a hour and a half long and really helped me feel better. Even though I prefer heated courses, Brian did a fabulous job of getting us where we needed to go. I will return in the future for other events as the studio really is fabulous. read more

I highly recommend Red Lotus Yoga! After trying a few studios in the area, this was the best fit for me. A variety of classes, for all levels, the teachers are very knowledgeable and the owners are great. It has a community feeling, interesting workshops, and a nice retail selection. read more

Up until this summer, I had never practiced yoga in public, or with the guidance of an instructor. I had only ever used videos, never certain if I was holding poses "correctly". I was terrified of ever attending a live class because I assumed anyone who went to a yoga studio was a perfect practitioner with a perfect body and perfect poses. I was on the MindBody app looking for a massage to help with some back and shoulder issues I was having at the time, when I saw an offer for two weeks of unlimited yoga at Red Lotus Yoga. That evening, there was a Candlelight Yoga class and for some reason it really called to me. I debated the purchase for an hour and decided to go it. The instructor, Melissa, happened to be in the lobby when I arrived and she was so welcoming. She asked about my prior experience with yoga, and described what the session would be like. I was never so grateful for an hour in a room of people in my life. I have since regularly attended Melissa's Yin Yoga practice as well. She is the reason that I continue to practice in public, at Red Lotus. The studio itself is clean and calm, a gentle haven. All of the staff is friendly, as are the other yogis. I feel like I truly belong to a community at this studio, and as long as Melissa continues to teach there, I will always attend her classes. read more

Melissa was amazing, I took her basic class it was both easy to follow and challenging. The atmosphere is great, exactly what you should expect in a yoga studio. It's clean, everyone was well spaced out. I will definitely be returning! read more

It has been tough to get in to Red Lotus because of my schedule and the classes get jam packed really quick. I wanted to try out yoga because I want to be flexible and just overall in better shape and the gym has not become religion for me because I simply cannot commit rotfl. Cardio is boring and lifting is also. I snagged a good deal on groupon and finally got to red lotus. The studio is really nice and the instructors are so great to work with. I might become a regular! Go grab a deal at groupon or come in check out what you can get started on and see if yoga might be a thing. Idk if I'll be a regular but I know I really enjoyed the class I went to. read more

I joined Red Lotus Yoga three weeks ago and have been attending the classes regularly. I have no experience in Yoga, so I started off going to basic yoga, gentle yoga, candlelight yoga and yin yoga classes during my first week and started going to slow flow and slow slow flow classes from second week. So far I feel my body is getting used to the different styles of practices and am loving it. My body is very relaxed at the end of each practice. The instructors are extremely professional humble and friendly. They make you feel comfortable and are always open to suggestions and feedback. The studio is very well maintained and the aroma in there is absolutely fantastic. I am planning to buy more class sessions and continue. For those who are debating whether to join this studio/yoga, I would highly recommend going here. You will not regret your decision. read more

I really love practicing at red lotus! The teachers are very friendly, I haven't experienced that at other studios. The classes are awesome, they can be as hard or as easy asyou want. All in all good vibes all the time Go to Brandi's class if you like your abs to hurt for days read more

Love this studio! The owners and staff are very friendly and helpful. When you first enter the studio, there is a sitting/waiting area with the front desk. There are hooks for your coats and cubbies for your shoes and personal belongings. They also have a couple dressing rooms and lots of fun products to shop from. They have 2 big practice rooms, equipped with props in each room. I tried the Slow Flow classes with two different teachers, both had very distinct styles. The classes were an hour long. I was told the Hot Vinyasa classes were longer at 1 hr. 15 min. They also have a variety of events and workshops. I noticed a flyer for a silent retreat, as well as restorative and candle light yoga workshops. Sweet and loving place! New students: $10 unlimited class for 1 week. read more

I've been coming to Red Lotus Yoga for years, and it is by far the absolute best yoga studio I have ever been to! The yoga instructors are very knowledgeable about the history of yoga and that is reflected so seamlessly in every class. It doesn't just feel like a trendy workout, as I've experienced at other studios. The classes are all about the mind and body, and tapping in to the present moment. I leave every class feeling renewed and at peace, and that alone keeps me coming back. Between the instructors, the variety of classes available, and the amazing merch shop they have with a WIDE variety of crystals....I am hooked for life. I moved away from Michigan last year, but I still have classes remaining at RLY and I always look forward to dropping in for a session while I'm in town. RLY will always have my loyalty, and I frankly wish there were more studios like them around. read more

I was in town from Texas for a wedding and knew I would need to counter all the food and drink I was going to consume over the weekend so I yelped the nearest yoga studio and found Red Lotus...the yogi gods were on my side b/c I totally scored:-) I have been practicing yoga for quite some some and teaching yoga for the past two years. I have learned not to be judgmental of other teachers and their personal style and to just take what I can get from everyone that crosses my path. With that said I was still really hoping to encounter a good class/instructor. I adored everything about Jonathan's class. The mood, music, sequence, instruction and the words of wisdom imparted were exactly what I needed. I took the slow flow vinyasa which had the right balance...not an extreme power class but still challenging. I wish I had been able to take more classes. Jonathan has a very genuine and authentic spirit that was felt throughout the entire hour. If all the instructors here match his attitude then Rochester Hills through Red Lotus has a good thing going:-)) read more

I love this studio! The owners are an awesome couple, very kind and loving. I've tried other studios closer to my home, but I love all of the classes RLY has & I feel good there, always! I've been to a few of the Silent/Mindfulness retreats, best experience and I will go every summer now to this retreat. I took YTT at RLY and although I chose not to teach yoga, I learned so much and made some good friends. In my opinion, this is the best studio I've ever been to read more

My company was planning a corporate event which included a session each of Mindfulness/Meditation, and Yoga. The hotel where we were hosting the event recommended Brian and Red Lotus Yoga. Brian was magnificent in combining the corporate world with meditation (even though there were some skeptics in the crowd!). Bethany led the participants in a "gentle yoga" session and those of all levels were comfortable with her style. Although I personally do not live near either studio, based on the experiences I did share in, I would recommend trying this studio. Also, if you have any questions about how yoga can work in your life, or what type of yoga to try, reach out to the owner, Brian, who is very responsive and approachable. read more

I have been fortunate to practice at yoga studios all around the US. I have felt the most comfortable and connected to my practice at Red Lotus Yoga! The atmosphere is set by the lovely owners, Brian and Kate whom exude love and kindness. The staff is a collaboration of people who truly love yoga and want to help others! They are inspiring people! I would recommend Red Lotus Yoga to young and old. We all are welcome and celebrated at RLY! Namaste ‍ read more

Excellent RYT 200 Teacher training program certified by Yoga Alliance! I have practiced yoga since 2003 and recently took the yoga lifestyle and teacher training at Red Lotus to deepen my practice. I wanted to teach. At the time there were several studios nearby that offered the 200 hour training. Red Lotus was my pick because it is a larger, more established studio with several practice rooms and an excellent reputation. The moment you enter the front door you cross a threshold into a sanctuary that is inviting and relaxing. You can let go of your day and your worries melt away. I appreciate the attention to details that support my yoga practice such as the helpful and well-trained staff, soft lighting and an abundance of complimentary yoga props. The teacher training staff are kind, compassionate and offer a balanced, down to earth approach to yoga. A guest instructor, Dan Bannink was brought in for a concise, fact-filled and entertaining workshop on yoga anatomy. Some of the perks of the program included free unlimited yoga for throughout teacher training as well as discounts on extra workshops and retail merchandise. A silent retreat at a local retreat center was also included. Brian, the studio owner and teacher offered a one-on-one hour long coaching session which I found to be a valuable part of my yoga training experience. The education I received at Red Lotus allowed me to begin teaching yoga for two different yoga providers within six months of my certification. Words can't describe the unique and healing atmosphere that I have experienced at this studio. Whether you are new to yoga or interested in taking your practice to the next level, I recommend attending a class at Red Lotus. read more

I have been practicing and teaching yoga for many years. While I am not an Ashtanga practitioner, Red Lotus and all of the teachers welcomes everyone to experience yoga as you discover it to be on YOUR Mat! Beyond grateful to be able to practice here! A safe haven for everyone! LOVE!! read more

Amazing isn't good enough to describe red lotus yoga. The instructors are well trained and always make you feel comfortable. They have variety for beginners to advanced and everything in between. Every time I leave I feel refreshed and clear headed. I love this place it's like a home away from home. read more

You would be remiss to not try out this fabulous yoga studio! And with its "30 days of yoga for 30 dollars" offer to new students, you'd be flat-out nuts to let go of such opportunity to practice some beautiful yoga. Red Lotus is peaceful the moment you step through the door. People are quiet, friendly, the teachers are kind and nonjudgmental. Instructors introduce themselves to new faces, making new faces like mine feel welcome and at home. Every, single teacher is amazing in their own way, and yet they share a universal thread of awesomeness in the way they run their "sermon" for an hour to hour and 15 minutes. I call it a "sermon" because I feel like I am truly on a spiritual journey during that time. I am at peace at Red Lotus. This 30 for 30 student has just become a Red Lotus regular! Give it a shot. It will be the best thing you do for yourself all month. read more

My home yoga studio, warm, inviting, challenging when you need it. Brings peace to my life.

Friendly service, clean facilities, and great yoga instructors! You get a lot of individual attention no matter what level you are.

Got a five drop in class deal from groupon...it is a great deal!...it has yoga classes 7 days a week and has many variety and always have morning class and also afternoon classes. it really fit my irregular work schedule...I have been to slow flow and basic yoga classes..both of them are great..all the instructors are knowledgable and really nice...the drawback is the class can be really packed..so try to get there early to get yourself a spot.. read more

I am so excited to have found this yoga studio. I love that they offer classes very early in the morning so I can get my day started off right before driving the kids to school, walking the dogs, going to work... The instructors are very caring and really guide you through the moves to make sure you have the correct posture for the most benefit. read more

Why did I only just discover this studio!! I have never been crazy about yoga, and most the classes I tried out at various studios never really pulled me in, until I decided I really want to give yoga a decent chance. Searching for yoga studios in my neighborhood I stumbled upon Red Lotus Yoga which at the time had a great deal of unlimited yoga classes for a week for only $10, I knew this was a good sign. Instantly after my first two sessions I fell in love with the environment, the friendliness of the staff and instructors, but most importantly I was drawn to the practice! I attend most of the slow flow and slow flow vinyasa sessions and have been making great improvements and also falling in love with yoga a bit more each day! I do think the studio is a little bit more on the pricey side but if it makes you feel better and brings you closer to your goals then why not. Definitely highly recommend Red Lotus yoga. read more

My first *yoga home* many, many years ago and one that will always feel as such. Brian (the owner) is a wonderful, good hearted man and the place has a really magical, warm touch to it. read more

I do yoga at a lot of different studios but I love how welcoming the instructors are with the students here. My experience was with Fred who teaches Ashtanga classes here. I hadn't been to his class for quite some time and had really only gone about 3 times. He always introduces himself to new students but more than that, he noticed I hadn't been there for over a year. That's an observant instructor. It's nice to see an instructor who puts himself at one with the students instead of above them. I had a class at another studio where the instructor made the class all about himself and didn't even notice or get a good feel of his own students. It's refreshing to see that doesn't happen here. read more
