Our mission is to serve as a community resource for yoga, Ayurveda, teacher training, and holistic wellness services. The collective vision at Spirit of the Lake Yoga is to provide a full-spectrum experience of health and healing in which the spiritual and emotional well-being of each student is as much the focus as the physical. Located in the heart of Excelsior, Minnesota, Spirit of the Lake Yoga & Wellness Center welcomes clients and students to a gorgeous, light-filled studio dedicated to group classes, workshops, and teacher trainings; and an elegant and private treatment room for holistic health consultations and bodywork. Our intention is not only to serve the immediate community of the Lakes Region, but also appeal to the greater Twin Cities metro area as a destination for those seeking a holistic alternative to personal health and wellness.

On this Labor Day, our studio is closed in honor of rest. We know many are carrying not just the busyness of daily life, but also the heaviness of the world and the quiet work of tending to the heart.

Today is a reminder that rest, breath, and connection are sacred labors - the ones that carry us forward.

💜 We’ll welcome you back to the studio tomorrow. May today offer you even a small moment of peace, gentleness, and renewal. 🌦🕊

✨ Yoga isn’t just about shapes on a mat - it’s a whole path for living with more steadiness, compassion, and clarity.

The ancient teachings describe the 8 Limbs of Yoga, guiding us from how we relate to others and ourselves, to how we breathe, move, focus, and ultimately connect with presence.

When you step into class, you’re not just stretching - you’re practicing these timeless principles in real time:

Breathing with awareness

Moving with steadiness and ease

Learning to notice rather than rush

Finding moments of quiet within the noise

Every practice, no matter how small, plants seeds of yoga beyond the mat.

👉 Which limb of yoga are you most curious about?

A message from Spirit of the Lake community member, Miki 😍.

I started with SOTL back in 2017 when I joined Nicole’s 4-week Full Life Formula workshop - and it truly felt meant to be.

Since then, I’ve loved so many workshops and retreats - from the studio, the Wayzata Depot, Camp Tanadoona, and Highland Vines flower farm, to overnight retreats at Wild Rice Retreat in Bayfield (4 times!)… and I’m so excited for Big Raven Farm next!

Through this practice, I finally found my breath and feel more at home on my mat. I’ve practiced yoga on and off since the mid-90s, but SOTL has been where it all really connected.

I’m deeply grateful for Nicole, Niki, Melissa, Sophia, and all the beautiful souls in this community. – Miki

Did you know… postpartum recovery isn’t just about the first six weeks?
Healing the body, nervous system, and heart is a long, layered process — and it deserves time, care, and community.

That’s why we’re so honored to offer Therapeutic Yoga for Postpartum Healing, beginning October 5 with Robin. 4 consecutive Sundays from noon-1:15

✨ For mothers seeking rest, repair, and wholeness.
✨ Gentle, supportive practices.

Because tending to yourself is never selfish — it’s part of the whole journey.
