Gateway Yoga

I’m grateful that I found Gateway Yoga a few years ago. It’s been one of the few things that have been somewhat constant in my life, through numerous ups and downs and growth. When I am unable to attend for a while, owners Brittnie and Beth always welcome me back. They have built a fabulous community! If I’m feeling social, fellow yogis are friendly and easy to talk to. If I’m not feeling great, I can still pop in and out with just a few hellos and good-byes, and I leave feeling better just because I shared space with kind people.

I love the types of yoga that Gateway teaches and I have liked every single instructor. I started with cool classes and at some point got a wild hair and tried a hot class; I was shocked to find that I actually enjoy it! I believe they heat the room to about 90 degrees, much more reasonable than the 100+ at some other studios.

I love Gateway so much that I pay for a year at a time. That’s how convinced I am that I need it my plan for stability and happiness.

I shout about how much I love this studio to anyone who will listen! I started with the 6-week challenge and I'm hooked! The classes are excellent - they offer a wide range of class options, from the basics in yoga 101 to heated power classes, and the knowledgeable instructors suggest pose accommodations to make sure you get the most out of your practice and tailor it to your specific needs. I'm already feeling stronger, clear-headed, and happier than before I started here. Plus, the owners, instructors, and other yogis are so incredibly kind and welcoming!

Between the instructors, the variety of classes for all experience levels, and the welcoming community, Gateway Yoga is AMAZING. I started out super confused on how to do any of the poses, and within a month of taking Yoga 101, I felt so much more confident. Over the last year, I have moved up to some of the harder (and hotter!) classes, and I look forward to them every week! I can't recommend enough if you're curious about yoga.

There aren’t enough great things I can say!! This is now my home for yoga, in fact, I loved the studio so much I took the teacher training and began my teaching journey here recently! The vibe is great, the people are all so welcoming, there are always interesting events taking place each month. Come say hi and check out the studio! 🤩

This yoga community is amazing, friendly and welcoming. The teachers are down to earth and make hot yoga accessible to all (as well as all other forms of yoga). I love that there are a variety of classes to choose from. I honestly "hated" hot yoga before falling in love with it at Gateway Yoga. Some studios take hot yoga WAY to seriously, but Gateway keeps it grounded. If you have been looking for a yoga community that you jive with, give this one a try, you wont be disappointed!

I’ve been looking for a new yoga community since my local fave closed down (RIP Practicing Yoga). Saw a Facebook ad for their 6 week challenge and signed up in April. The challenge was fun, and I could feel improvements in my physical and mental well being within a couple weeks. It’s now mid August and I’ve continued going twice a week as a supplement to cardio and strength training (my favorites are the Beats & Flow classes!). I love how lean, flexible, strong and just “wrung out” I feel after class. Reminds me no matter how my body is feeling (postpartum or tired or bloated or weak or heavy etc), I’m always stronger and more capable than I think, and the connection between mind and body is so powerful- and effective, when utilized. The community here is wonderful- everyone is so friendly and the instructors are supportive, welcoming and fun. Sign up for the challenge! Then stay because it’s awesome.

The best yoga studio I've ever been to. Everyone is so warm and welcoming. They have a great variety of classes for all levels. HIGHLY recommend!

Gateway yoga is one of a kind. The instructors are amazing! Make you feel so welcome and encouraging. Each class is so unique and special and planned with intention.

A friend of mine is a member and after hearing how wonderful it was, I just had to try it! I loved the class! The environment was welcoming and relaxed. Throughout the class we were offered options to modify or challenge. I loved the flow and the the heat. Absolutely worth checking out!

This place is magic--on so many levels! I sought out yoga to support my running habit and it has been a game changer. I love the community and support and the expertise that is a part of every class. I cannot imagine my world without them now!

I am thrilled to have found this studio! Being relatively new to yoga- I am grateful for the guidance, patience and openness of the instructors and the entire community. Whether it is sweating in the studio or being amongst nature in Kirkwood park, I leave class physically and mentally recharged!! I encourage new students to take advantage of the 2-week unlimited promo-- I promise you will be hooked :)

UPDATE: It has been 2 years since I joined the Gateway Yoga family and my practice with this community has become a staple of my weekly routine. I am stronger physically and mentally than I ever thought I could be. Hope to see you on the mat!

Great place and an awesome instructor. We did the hot yoga and I've done hot yoga before at a different place and didn't like the smell. Gateway yoga was very clean and no smell it shows that they take good care of the facilities. All around great experience.

I have lived and practiced yoga in many places, and this is truly my favorite studio ever! My favorite part is the sense of community. The owners, teachers, and other students are all so welcoming and supportive. I also love how they offer many different styles of yoga and special workshops too. Amazing studio for new and long-time yogis!

Beth is a very positive teacher. She takes the time to help you find a good modification for a pose and then congratulates you when you get it right. I took yoga 101 for beginners, so it wasn't heated and isn't a "power" class. It was still a challenge for me, in a good way, and I felt confident that I can make progress.

I always feel comfortable and at home when I’m in the studio. All my questions are always answered. They worked with me on coming up with solutions to make sure I reach my goals. They truly go above and beyond 😊

I've been at this studio for over a year and my practice has been transformed!! Every instructor is different and exceptional in their own way. The classes will challenge you mentally, physically & spiritually. Also, a very kind and accepting community of people. Love, love, love!!

I've been so please with every class I have ever taken here. When I come consistently, my body moves so much freer, I have more flexibility, and my spine even decompresses-- to the point that I regain lost height (usually about a quarter of an inch). Thank you, BPY- St. Louis for offering such a great variety of in-person and online classes.

Baptist Power Yoga St Louis is more than just a wonderful yoga studio--not only do you get a great workout, and feel completely integrated when you leave, but you have a chance to develop friendships in a caring and accepting community. There are different classes and times to fit your needs, and various workshops keep your practice vibrant!

I'm in St. Louis for work quite often. As a result, I've checked out BlueBird Yoga (closer to the office but parking is tricky!), Yoga Six (awesome shower facilities!) and then I found Metro Power Yoga - who have now become a Baptiste Affiliate studio - Baptiste Power Yoga St. Louis !!

The studio has ample parking and has awesome early morning yoga classes so I can get Journey Into Power into my morning before the work day starts.

SO GOOD!

LOVED my first class. I am looking forward to the next. Thank you so much for having a yoga studio that caters to all and I really appreciate the warm welcome!
