Pre - COVID : I had never been to this yoga facility, and won a 10 day free pass from a school raffle. Even in the dead of winter, my best friends and I made a commitment to attending hot yoga sessions. When we arrived, we walked into the facility, and there were areas to place our belongings and shoes. The room we did yoga in was large, and had mirrors lining the walls. The classes were packed, so spacing our mats was hard, but we made room. Shows how popular it was! We began with beginner sessions and moved up to harder classes. I had a great time and loved how calm I felt after! We also took classes that were simple flow and stretch. I have not returned since COVID but I did enjoy my time at this facility! The instructors were respectful of my space and gave good tips for modifications. read more

Four years later, and Milwaukee power yoga is still just as legit. Especially as we move into the colder months, this place offers a brief almost mini tropical vacation from the brutal midwestern winters. It's a niche exercise facility obviously...you're basically coming there for hot yoga -- the regular class, slow flow, candlelight or beginner - all those are pretty self explanatory. They also do lots of workshops that are fun and generally on the weekends. Their sound system always seems on point- never too loud or too soft. Each teacher has their own style of playlist but I usually love all the music choices here. if you haven't take yoga classes (esp hot yoga classes) you may balk at prices but from going to other places, their prices are some of the most reasonable in the city. And if you're not sure and are new you can try the "10 days for $10" special where you can try out as many classes as you like in 10 daysfor 10$. It's hot in the studio (seems to go anywhere from the 80s to over 100)so bring a mat sized towel (and maybe a small one too)a long with your mat cuz you're probably gonna sweat! Don't have one? bring a beach towel - that works too! or rent or buy one from the studio. You can also rent or buy mats, and they sell other little accessories and water. Props for class are free for use. Only thing to remember is there's no showers-just changing rooms and bathrooms, and parking is pretty much street-only (with a lot of it being metered.) I'd highly recommend walking or biking. Namaste, yelpers! . read more

Milwaukee Power Yoga - Yoga Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Milwaukee Power Yoga is a little different from the rest. They lock the door once class begins. I really like this practice as it can be quite distracting to have "late comers" enter when you're trying to get your zen on. If this is your first class, I suggest arriving 15 minutes early to fill out the waiver and snag a spot in the studio. Classes tend to fill fast, especially during those peak evening hours when people are trying to decompress after a stressful day. I also suggest signing up online beforehand. The studio offers a $10 pass for 10 days for those attending for the first time. This is an inexpensive way to see if the studio fits your style without breaking the bank. All classes are heated and you will sweat. I mean drip onto the floor sweat. And...you will love it! The studio has mats and towels that you can rent. These aren't just your bath towels, but non-slip ones that help with grip. Let me tell you, when you are sitting in your pool in the first 15 minutes of class, and your back foot keeps slipping in Warrior I, you will wish you had one. If you don't have your own, pay the $2 or $3 and rent one. The studio has bathrooms, changing rooms and a place to store your belongings during class. They do not have showers. When I go to class, I usually bring water (they do have a water fountain there), my mat and a yoga towel. Wear comfortable clothes. Yes, you will see younger women wearing tight yoga pants, but if you want to pull out your harem pants from India, go right ahead. Generally speaking, there are usually a few guys in each class from various age groups. If you are a guy, you probably won't be alone. Point being, come as you are and know that you will be welcomed. I've gone to at least 5 different studios in Milwaukee and this one has the best teachers and musical selection. Hands on adjustments are rarely done (even though I like them and welcome them). Teachers are knowledgeable, willing to answer questions, offer modifications or amplifications, and bring something special to every class (like a little spritz of lavender in the air during savasana). I just got back to Milwaukee and haven't taken classes with all the teachers yet (I'm sure they are all talented), but I can recommend Karly Sopcic (down to earth, contagious enthusiasm, challenging class but her verbal cues are on point and she is FIT, not in that intimidating way but inspiring, like, you too can be that badass.), Kate Dean (experienced and confident, offers a lot of variety and you leave her class feeling "WOW!"), and, of course, Laura Yell (her musical selection will have you singing along in no time, but don't lose your ujjayi breathing, her voice is soothing and her flow feels natural. She radiates this tangible tranquility and by the end of class, you can feel it too!). If you need someone to give you a push, go. I promise you won't regret it. The worst thing that could happen is you paid $10 to get sweaty and feel relaxed. Things could be worse and you probably spent $10 on sillier things. Thank you MPY for creating such a phenomenal space to practice! read more

Milwaukee Power Yoga is great for people at all levels. This is where I started doing yoga & as I have progressed with my practice, I am still challenged during each class that I attend. The atmosphere that the instructors create is both welcoming and warming. You always feel like you're at home hanging out with friends/family. Each class is as challenging as you make it. Kate's "slow flow" class is one of the hardest on the schedule, despite the name, so don't let it fool you. They also offer yoga sculpt which can be a great compliment to yoga. They do random weekend workshops that range from learning about kombucha / plant based eating, to a challenging "hiit and flow" class, to 108 sun salutations, etc. I love this place and would highly recommend to anyone. read more

I moved to Milwaukee about 6 months ago and have spent a lot of time going to different yoga studios searching for one that spoke to me. I am a yoga teacher myself, and I really look for a studio that links the physical and mental practice of yoga. I definitely found that here -- but not with all teachers. I think the student-teacher relationship is really special in yoga, and each person likes something different. For me, I found Susie at MKE Power Yoga, and she has been incredible. There are other teachers here I like as well, but she definitely keeps me coming back. Her flows are challenging physically, but she also does a great job of creating space for meditation and mindful practice. The studio overall is very clean and there is a lot of space. I like going to the 9:30am classes because they aren't very full. I've gone to some evening classes and not only are they packed, but it gets even hotter than normal because of so many bodies in one room. I do wish they offered a couple more classes during the day (between 9am and 5pm). I highly recommend at least trying the studio out because they have a great $10 for 10 days of class deal, which is honestly a steal. There are a lot of instructors, and several special workshops every month, so something for almost everyone! read more

I love Milwaukee Power Yoga. The teachers are very knowledgeable, friendly and supportive. It's a great community and I have enjoyed every single class I have taken here. Totally recommend it! read more

Milwaukee Power Yoga is my favorite place to practice yoga. I love everything about it from the atmosphere to the instructors. Everyone is so friendly and inviting, always willing to enhance your practice by taking the time to explain a pose or just share something cool and inspiring. I love the Hot Candlelight flow, it is my favorite class. Although perfection does not exist, it is a perfect way to wind-down from a long day. Very relaxing and soothing. read more

Milwaukee Power Yoga is easily on my list of top three favorite yoga studios in Milwaukee, everything from the studio itself, the instructors, the class schedule, the location, the hours, you name it! Let's start with the studio. A few years ago, when I first tried MPY, it was in a much smaller studio space. I have to admit, I didn't prefer hot yoga at the time, but that has long changed! So, since I've revisited MPY, the studio space has almost doubled! They did some awesome renovations. It has beautiful wood floors, surrounded by mirrors. Not that anything should be judged by its looks, but this studio's ambiance definitely gives it a +1. They have spacious bathrooms if you need to change beforehand and also provide cubby spaces/coat hooks for all your items. The classes are top-notch. I've tried out several instructors and have left feeling positive about each one. Per usual, they all have their different styles, and it's fun to try out different classes. The Monday night candlelight flow class is probably the most perfect way to start your week. I've also gone to several classes where the instructors hand out lavender wipes during savasana and provide a little extra guided alignment. I also love how they diffuse essential oils during class. Things like this are what stand out between studios. The class times are especially convenient if you have an 8-5 job, as they offer several evening classes. If I could ever get motivated to wake up in time for their 6am class, I'd love to try it :) They offer several weekend classes, too, which is actually hard to come by. I live on the east side, in walking distance to MPY, so I suppose I'm a little biased when it comes to location! Overall, this is a great studio, and I highly recommend you check out their introduction package, which is 10 days of unlimited yoga for $10. read more

I've been coming here regularly for about two months now. If you want a full body work out - give power yoga a shot. In two months, these classes have kicked my booty and sculpted it all at the same time. At first I was worried because I am the biggest wimp in the heat. I've passed out a handful of times because of the heat during the summer. I've never thought I was going to pass out in this class. Does it get hot? Absolutely. But if you're feeling overheated, childs pose it out until you get your breath back. Bring a towel or two. You're going to sweat. My second concern was that it was going to smell. It doesn't. The studio is super clean. Third concern was that it would be too much/not enough of a workout. They have a great promo where you can try it for $10 for 10 days so you can make up your own mind. My experience was that the class wasn't impossible but certainly hard the first few times. Two months in, the classes are still challenging but I'm not silently cursing the instructor quite as often. If you're new, I'd go to a Slow Flow class the first time because the instructor takes you through the movements slowly so you can figure out the poses. It isn't necessarily "easier" than the other classes, just slower so you can make sure your form is correct. Highly recommended! read more

As someone who has been practicing different styles of yoga for about 7 years, in many different cities, I am lucky to call Milwaukee Power Yoga my home studio... -The class schedule works great with my 8-5 job and provides a variety of classes to choose from. -Heat varies from about 95 degrees-104ish...depending on the amount of people. -Every instructor I've had here is incredible, challenging and SO HELPFUL! I leave feeling refreshed, inspired, and already looking forward to my next class. -The studio space is beautiful, spacious, always clean and well kept. -The pricing is fair, and the $10 new student special is awesome, definitely something to take advantage of. -They offer workshops almost every weekend for about $10-$30 and THEY. ARE. INCREDIBLE. If you've ever wanted to dig deeper into any part of your practice, this is a great time to do so...smaller class sizes, one on one coaching, completely judgment free! If I could say one negative thing about Milwaukee power yoga, it would have to be the lack of parking.....but really that's Downtown Milwaukee in general. If you come early enough and circle a few times it's not an issue, just know to plan in advance or walk! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a studio in the Milwaukee area :) read more

Can't get enough of class here. The classes vary by instructor - meaning the flows and sequences are different - but the temp and style is consistent. I thought I loved Bikram until I discovered how a 60 minute less-rigid class feels. Love. They just updated the space to include changing stations, 2 bathrooms, and a larger studio space which allows for a less cramped feel, even when the class is full. All the instructors are kind, encouraging, and offer modifications so that the pros can push harder and the beginners can do the basics. Reasonably priced: classes/packages and towel/mat rentals or purchases. read more

My favorite studio in MKE. It's hot yoga but unlike Bikram down the street, this isn't as hot or long. It's a 60 min class vs 90 at Bikram and much more tolerable with the heat. They have a new client 10 dollar for 10 days which I usually take my friends to. Best deal around. It's an awesome work out and a great studio. Bring a towel! If your into yoga please check out Juil.com an amazing company that makes the perfect sandals for YogA. I have no connection with them, just trying to push another local company. read more

I've been here 9 times in the last two weeks, so if you're not up for a longer read that should give you your answer. A little background: I am a TOTAL and COMPLETE yoga noob (did Pilates 3 times about 10 years ago, never tried yoga) but am forcing myself to explore different styles of working out to improve my overall health / physical ability / challenge myself & step outside of the box. Let it also be known that I am a huge wimp when it comes to heat so to say I was scared to try hot yoga is an understatement. So, I made myself a list of places to try out in the MKE area & when I saw MPY's 10 days for $10 trial offer I figured it was a good place to start. Their app is super easy to navigate and really convenient - I'm a fan. Mat rentals are only $1 which is nice in case you forget yours/are a newbie. I've tried the "All levels", "Yoga + Sculpt" and "Candlelight Flow" classes and have survived them all (ha). Some have been harder than others, but I've never felt silly modifying or taking a break - each class has been an even mix of beginners & people you see doing headstands on Instagram (#goals). The only two reasons I'm not giving 5 stars (get ready for me to talk out of both sides of my mouth) are 1) all classes are hot yoga - would be nice to have a variety of options 2) there's a little bit of lack in consistency. Some instructors start with meditation (love it), some keep the lights fully on (hate it) - I'm sure once I find my grove / my fav instructors this will be a non-issue. All in all - a great place for yogis of all experience levels and ages! My 10 days have ended and I purchased a full package, so safe to say I'm hooked! read more

Over the last two months I have come to Milwaukee Power Yoga 1-2 times per week and I am very much enjoying it. I am primarily a runner and I really enjoy this type of yoga as a form of cross training because I feel like it compliments my training very well. My favorite class is Erin's Slow Flow class -- I love her teaching style and the slower speed is a really great contrast to running. The heat makes you feel like you are working harder and really helps to loosen you up. The entire staff seems great and very welcoming. I just wish people weren't so chatty in the studio before class starts -- but that is much more a reflection on the participants, rather than the studio itself. Bring water, bring a towel and go at your own pace. It is a really great place and I am so glad it is in the neighborhood. read more

Love this place! Great studio and awesome instructors. I'm definitely a beginner but always feel welcomed and encouraged. I do yoga more to workout and that's exactly what I get when coming to these classes. Plus I love the nap thing at the end of class Started with the intro offer and then bought a 10 class pass. I think it's a great value. Also LOVE that they have late classes! I get home from work late and struggle to find places with late evening classes. The 7:30pm and 8:15pm classes are just what I was searching for! Now if they could just do a 5:30am class... read more

I'm interning in Milwaukee for the summer and love doing hot yoga. I wasn't sure if I was going to find a spot that I liked.... I lucked out and found a spot I love! I feel so relaxed and grounded afterwards. I've never sweat so much in a class as I do here and it completely cleanses me. They definitely have me coming back for more! read more

Instructors are friendly. Not too crowded. Easy to sign up. No pressure. You can rent a mat and towel.. Dont forget to bring a water bottle. They have a bubbler with a spout to fill your own. Clean. I'm addicted. :) P.s. If you drive, give yourself some time to find a parking spot.. bring quarters to plug the meter, you WILL get a ticket. read more

Don't be intimidated by the heat. It's not that hot. Yes, you will be dripping with sweat by the end of class but that's a good thing. Just make sure to bring a towel for your mat (or rent one at the front desk). The instructors I've had have been great and the space is very peaceful. Get there early on weekends to grab your spot and be prepared to be right next to someone else. Weekday mornings have more room to move, but the energy is a little different (not bad, just different). The 10 days for $10 is a great deal, just wish they had a mid day class for lunchtime yoga'ing. read more

Awesome place and awesome experience! Love doing Yoga here with amazing instructors. I used to do yoga here in 2013 and then I moved elsewhere. 2015 I was back and couldn't wait to join back! read more

This is a great place and hopefully will help Milwaukee's yoga scene grow a bit more. I was here yesterday because I didn't feel like fighting Chicago traffic just to do some yoga. I normally go to CorePower Yoga in Chicago, but I may be paying this place a visit more often than not. This place appears to be right under a condo. It almost looks like a realty leasing office converted into a yoga studio. There are 2 studios, one looks bigger than the other, and I had my practice in the smaller room. I'm guessing the larger room will be used once this place gets more members (I think it just opened a few months ago)...which may be soon because the room was almost full. I did the all levels class which alone was challenging enough, and I've been doing power yoga for 4 years! Laura's a great teacher, very friendly, and I'm quite impressed to see that she's the only one working there. From what I can tell, she keeps it nice and clean, but there are no showers fyi. You get a free week if you "like" Milwaukee Power Yoga on facebook, and if you check into the facebook app places location 10 times, you get a free class. Overall a very decent studio, I'll be back here the next few days to get my free week worth while. I hope this studio grows more and Milwaukee starts getting more of a yoga scene. 4 stars because the room I practiced in had no windows :( The larger one has large windows so I'm hoping to see classes in there soon! read more

MKE Power Yoga is the best studio I've found in Milwaukee. The instructors are creative with their classes and really great at challenging your practice. They are also all unique with their own teaching style and class flow. The classes are hard and the room is hot, so be ready for a great workout! The facilities are clean; workshop options are interesting; overall a 5-star yoga studio. Enjoy! read more

I've tried every hot yoga studio in the greater Milwaukee area and continually return to Power. The instructors are kind yet challenging, and the varied class schedule is convenient for busy professionals. You'll leave drenched in sweat feeling accomplished and limber! Definitely a gem for new and experienced yogis alike. read more

love the space, the various instructors (&their varying styles), and the atmosphere they create. Can't beat a $10 for 10 day introduction to the studio. Now a convert and feel a void without at least a twice a week visit. read more

I have been going to Milwaukee Power Yoga for almost 8 months. Each of the instructors have their own unique facilitation style that is challenging, yet gentle. Also, I love the fact that there are women and men from all walks of life with different body types which speaks to the diversity that you will not find at most yoga studios. read more

I really like this studio. Big rooms with nice wood floors and Laura is very calming yet inspiring to learn from. If you like her on facebook you get the first week free, which is a great way to experience it for yourself. I bought a ten-class pack but am considering getting monthly unlimited since it is only $85/month which is the lowest I have seen. Tips for beginners: drink a lot of water, bring/invest in a yoga towel, and listen to your body so you don't overdo it. Great location! read more

Each instructor puts their own spin on the classes. They do a great job of keeping everything nice and clean between classes. Something I find important with all the swearing going on! My favorite class is the "yoga sculpt"...only draw back is it's not more than 1 day a week. read more

My first class at Milwaukee Power Yoga was my first experience with hot yoga and I have loved it ever since! The $10 for 10 days offer was a great way to get your feet wet and try out the studio. I have since signed up for multiple unlimited months and I plan to continue! It is the perfect way to get a great workout in, while reflecting on the day and focusing back on your breath. Milwaukee Power Yoga is great! read more

Gregg was a great instructor, but I have had good experiences with every teacher. I recommend getting there a little early, as it's been pretty full each time I have gone. read more

Come to this yoga place with your mat, towel, insulated water bottle and set an intention. To learn, to clear the mind, to get a great workout -whatever you need. I think the room is set to 95 degrees, so it is hot! I like to wear looser fitting clothing for this level of intensity. The price is right and the instructors are great. They help you feel focused and you get a great workout. You choose your level. This is a no judgement zone. If you are new to yoga, I suggest attending non-heated classes first to get use to how your body feels doing yoga and to know your limits of flexibility. This place is great for those of us looking to improve upon our poses and try new ones. read more

After taking many yoga classes at other places and taking yoga training myself, I am disappointed that the class lacked an actual "flow" which is what vinyasa yoga is. There was no cue for one movement per breath just random inhales and exhales in resting postures. Plus, there wasn't a flow series at all except a modified sun A in the beginning. Postures for certain stretches were done too early in class as the muscles were not yet warm enough to safely stretch......nor were many of the poses held long enough. In addition, some of the named poses were not the actual poses the instructor did plus verbal cueing was confusing and not direct......saying grab your left foot is not helpful, using your left hand to grab your left foot so your right arm can...... Is what should be said. I also felt class was too easy. I understand providing a class for all but providing layers for people to learn from ( not saying how I should ideally do the pose as was said in class) and expand their practice. read more

I just finished up the $10 for 10 days unlimited deal and it was everything I expected and more! There is a great variety of classes and times and they do a nice job offering moves for all yoga levels. Definitely will be going back! read more

Best yoga studio I've found since moving here from San Diego... I really enjoy a challenging class. I don't want to go to yoga to simply roll around on the floor, I feel like I get a good workout here! Kat is a great instructor, as are Kate, Katie and Laura. I have yet to experience anything but excellence at this place! Keep up the good work, ladies! read more

What a great place for someone new to yoga to feel challenged while fitting right in. A very comfortable environment with GREAT yogi instructors! I've encouraged so many friends to come and try this place out. I was new to yoga and hot yoga and not only have I fallen in love with the practice but feel at home at MKE Power Yoga! read more

I enjoyed the flow nature of the yoga as the continuous motion made for a more vigorous workout than many other yoga classes I've been to. I wish there were more classes available as a couple days I wanted to go so bad but there were no times that worked with my schedule. Laura is a great instructor! read more

I'm new in town. After trying out two other studios, this place is my new yoga home as it hits most of the bases that I look for in a studio: heat, athletic yoga, creative sequencing. The teachers are all good and friendly. I have enjoyed and been challenged in every class I've taken, and it's been a month of practicing 5-6x/week. Some weave in spiritual or mindfulness themes, which is always nice when it's from a genuine place. I wouldn't recommend the studio for beginners - know the poses and how to align them first. They lose a star for two reasons: Cell phones. I don't think I've been to a studio where it isn't a studio rule that no cell phones enter the space. It's really disrespectful to bring the outside into a practice of looking inward. It's hot yoga, people sweat. The floor should be cleaned between every class. It's not uncommon to walk into the room and have to avoid the last class' sweat on the ground. I hope to be able to change this to five stars. read more

I have been attending Laura's classes (and her colleagues' too!) for over a year now, and have not been disappointed once. I was an avid CorePower Yoga fan when I lived in Chicago, and was disappointed with the yoga scene when I moved to Milwaukee. Luckily, Milwaukee Power Yoga opened a few months after I settled into Milwaukee, and my love for yoga was instantly restored. The classes are challenging, invigorating, and tough. Laura and her colleagues are inspiring and motivating, and I feel stronger after each class. The only thing I wish Milwaukee Power Yoga would consider incorporating into their classes is cardio and weights - maybe someday! Thank you, Laura, for creating such a wonderful studio! read more

I used to do bikram yoga in college, and was looking to get back into it when I moved to Milwaukee. While this isn't official bikram, it's still an amazing workout - combining the warm room with vinyasa flow allows you to get deeper into poses than you could in a normal temperature room. It feels so great, and I haven't come across an instructor at MPY that I haven't liked. They all put together unique classes and keep it interesting. I highly recommend this studio to all yogis! read more

Due to the fact that some of the idiots I know that are gym rats I tried to find some other way to get in shape. I checked other yoga studios on the east side and Bayview. Most of them make you feel intimidated. Not here. Such a great staff and studio. They make you feel welcome and don't expect you to be perfect. No pressure to do a head stand your first day. The heat is the best part of the workout. Normally I melt in 70 degree weather. Doing any form of exercise in 96 degree heat would be crazy for me but it didn't bother me much. Try the special first and you will find something you like. Either way, this place is so clean and you will feel better each and every time you go. Such a relaxing and efficient workout! read more

My favorite yoga studio in Milwaukee. I Great flow yoga and not over heated, yeah you will sweat but you'll walk out energized and refreshed. The teachers do a great job pairing the music with the class as well... and you can go unlimited times for 10 days for only 10 bucks! A great way to get into it. read more

Hands down, best studio in town! After my first hot yoga class 15 months ago, I never looked back. I tried yoga in college and at the time, didn't feel the joy in it. I decided to revisit it almost 6 years later and it now is apart of my life. Since I was knew to the 'hot yoga world,' I decided to try all the studios in the Milwaukee area, and immediately found myself a member of Milwaukee Power Yoga, due to the amazing staff, creative teachers, and awesome variety of classes and music! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! read more
