Yoga Guide to Milwaukee’s North Shore 2025

Empower Yoga in Whitefish Bay

Between kids’ schedules, I-43 construction traffic and everyday dash-and-go life, carving out calm close to home is priceless. The studios and community classes below let you slip in a 6 a.m. sweat-session or a sunset flow without a long drive or downtown parking hunt. They’re listed roughly south-to-north so you can scan what’s nearest.

Community & Rec Classes

Each season’s Adult Fitness & Wellness catalog includes six- to eight-week yoga sessions (indoor, virtual and occasional park pop-ups). Register early—prices rise $10 once a session begins.

Quick Tips for North Shore Yogis

• Book ahead: Smaller studios (especially Empower’s heated room) cap class sizes.

• Heat check: Infrared studios run 90–100 °F; hydrate and bring a towel.

• Parking intel:

• Silver Spring Dr. has 2-hour street parking; arrive early for evening classes.

• YogaOne & 8th State share free surface lots.

• Family time: Many studios offer teen or kids’ yoga—handy if your crew is already at dance or baseball nearby.

• Mat rental: Empower sells $10 mats; YogaOne lends loaners; 8th State rents for $2.

Roll out your mat, breathe in that lake-breeze humidity, and enjoy a North Shore summer of strength, stretch and stillness—right in your own backyard.
