The Yoga Room has been a quiet sanctuary for yoga practice since 2004. We offer mindfulness-based Hatha, Vinyasa and Yin yoga classes for adults of all ages and levels of experience. We take a unique approach with our weekly yoga classes by designing 2 to 4 month sessions around a specific theme for students who are looking for a more in-depth, enriching yoga experience. Our yoga classes are intentionally small -- a maximum of 7 students -- so that each student receives the attention they deserve.
PLEASE NOTE: IN LIGHT OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC ALL IN-STUDIO CLASSES AT THE YOGA ROOM ARE CURRENTLY SUSPENDED. DETAILS COMING SOON ABOUT A NEW SUMMER COURSE. IN THE MEANTIME, PLEASE CONTINUE ENJOYING CHRISTY'S CLASSES VIA AUDIO DOWNLOAD. NEW CLASSES WEEKLY!

Great for beginners and those wanting a more mellow practice.
Gradually increase strength and flexibility while relieving stress and tension. AM Hatha: A more energizing class to help wake you up and set a positive tone for your day. PM Hatha: A calming, slower-paced class to help you unwind at the end of your day.
Best for students in good physical condition or with prior yoga experience.
Ann Arbor's Original Vinyasa! This alignment-enhanced style of Vinyasa offers a practice that is fluid and fun, but at the same time safe and sustainable. Increase your strength, flexibility and memory in this heat-building style by learning the sequence and then flowing on your own!
Good for all levels, especially those wanting a great stretch.
Yin Yoga has been coined the "quiet practice." A variety of leg, hip, back and shoulder stretches are held for 3-5 minutes in an attempt to go deep into the muscles and connective tissue of the body. Use breath and awareness as tools to cultivate mindfulness and deep relaxation.
