Our Mission Is To Improve Your Mental Health

It’s a community built on socialization, and our door is open to everyone. Together, we believe in moving to learn, unlearn, and relearn. The struggle with mental health in our culture is at a level of crisis, and we believe that self-discovery through the practice of asana, and integration of insight, is an antidote.

Are You Looking For Something More

Citizen goes beyond maintenance for the body. We are committed to the practice of yoga as a lens to go inward. With a mission to improve mental health through practice, each person coming to Citizen will feel a sense of belonging, and leave knowing they are better equipped to handle the stresses of life. Our radically welcoming community offers a space to find unexpected friends, and build confidence to express yourself in an authentic way.

Our Classes

Our classes blend intelligent sequencing, functional alignment, breathwork and mindfulness to support your nervous system—not override it. Props and options are encouraged so you stay in charge of your body. Whether you’re drawn to our unheated flows or our infrared-heated yoga and pilates classes, you’ll find space to show up, breathe, and leave steadier, stronger, and more connected.

Yoga For Those Who Need It Most

Through your support, we’re able to offer free or subsidized yoga, mindfulness, and self-care practices to those facing financial hardship or mental health challenges. Because everyone deserves a place to reconnect to themselves, no matter their circumstances. Because healing should never have a price tag. Because we are all part of each other’s journey home.

Our Mission

Yoga & Wellness was founded on the belief in making yoga and mindfulness practices accessible to all, especially those seeking recovery, health, and wellness. We are a diverse and dynamic, inclusive community, with compassionate teachers and practitioners. We understand the transformative power of yoga, meditation, and the healing arts and are excited to share the benefits with you.

Our Team

Yoga & Wellness’ teachers and practitioners are dedicated to delivering a knowledgeable, inclusive, and transformative experience that strengthens and inspires.

From Humble Beginning

Yoga Studio opened its first location in Grosse Pointe Woods in the summer of 2013. We began as a one-room studio without any frills or elbow space; just a little studio with daily yoga lessons and committed teachers.
