Wonderful community focused studio with classes for all levels of experience. If you have tried yoga at your gym and find it lacking purpose or direction, this practice is for you.

Another great co-op business in Hamtramck! I popped in for a special day after thanksgiving class—I appreciated the thoughtfulness of the instructor and their ability to support a large class of students and meet them at their different skill-levels. I really enjoyed the playful visualizations of the turkey and other birds as inspiration for movement. I was feeling low energy, and this class really re-energized me for a family outing! So grateful we have them in the neighborhood 😊

I have been going to IYDC for almost 10 years and it is such a supportive place to do yoga. Great teachers, great community. Super adaptive to any bodies, any injuries, any stage of life- while also challenging us to grow as people and in our practice.

Whenever I'm in Detroit, which is fairly regularly, I try to take a class at Iyengar Yoga Detroit. I've never been disappointed by the welcoming environment and level of teaching. If you're looking for a fashion-forward, lycra-infused yoga studio, look elsewhere. If you're seeking a genuine community dedicated to the teaching and practice of Iyengar Yoga, this is the place!

IYDC is a dream! This welcoming studio has empathetic, generous teachers aimed at supporting and encouraging you. The studio is beautiful and charming, featuring an amazing wooden rope wall. The teachers are wonderful, extremely knowledgeable, curious, and energetic. I especially appreciate George's beginner classes and Erin's Uterine health class!If you've ever considered trying yoga, or are looking for a new practice, I would strongly recommend this spot! In fact, I have been lovingly teased by friends for how often I bring up Iyengar as a solution for their aches and pains.It's also worth mentioning, that this is the first practice type and studio that's helped me stick with a fitness practice--I have been going for over a year. I feel an increase in physical ability, but also mental capability and calm.In addition to it being a wonderful studio, I also appreciate that it is cooperatively owned, with a commitment to accessible classes for everyone! It's located on one of the charming main streets of Hamtramck.THANK YOU IYENGAR YOGA DETROIT! <3
