I came to the studio because I was visiting from out of town and wanted to try a local yoga studio. I took the Hatha class with Megan and it was fantastic! The class was a good mix of challenging and centering. The sense of community in the studio was really strong, I talked to everyone there and got great recommendations for things to do during my trip to STL. Great studio! Highly recommend!

Signing up for Island Yoga classes has been a game changer in my fitness goals, and my mental enhancement. It was what I needed to jumpstart my "get fit" routine, and force me to take time out for myself. I work hard all day at a computer. When I spend an hour relaxing and stretching, I feel rejuvenated. The "Island Yoga family" is great to be around for support and encouragement. The practice is helping me focus, and be more productive, as well as feel stronger and more flexible. I will continue with the classes to get all of the wonderful benefits that I didn't know were available to me. Megan is an awesome trainer and business owner. She makes everyone feel special, included, happy, and important. I am excited about my decision to join the practice of Yoga with Island Life in Soulard.

What a beautiful and quaint studio. This was my first visit to Island Life Yoga . Stonyrae’s Vinyasa class had a powerful yet meditative flow. Her use of sound bowls and chimes was a calming, peaceful, and original conclusion to the class. If you haven’t taken her class, it’s a must!

My experience at Island Life was so warm and welcoming. I signed up for a drop in class with Megan who greeted me (by name) with a smile and aura as warm and bright as the sun. She gave me a tour of the studio space, which is impeccably clean and was the perfect soothing environment for a morning Hatha class. Megan also introduced me to the other class attendees which goes a long way towards showcasing the community they've built here. The flow of the Hatha class was perfect with long, juicy stretches and great queing from Megan (who lead the class). I signed up for a new student package the same day and definitely think I'll be returning often!

The yoga retreat was an amazing experience and I can’t wait for the next one! It was truly one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself.

We cannot summon a single negative complaint about the retreat.
Yoga: The group size was spot on and the 2x daily practices were heaven. We both loved the warrior workshop and have carried your advice into class since our return.
I thought Jen’s art projects added a welcome playful, thoughtful and spiritual dimension to the retreat that captured the essence of that special week.
Free time: The cenotes excursion was mind blowing and we thought the two trips included in the price was the perfect amount. We never felt over-scheduled or harried.
Copal Resort: We were wary about the all-inclusive aspect where the food can sometimes cater- down to the least adventurous palates, but this was not that. Not even close.
Reserving the entire villa for our group alone fostered a closeness that carried over into the yoga practice and downtime. The communal dining provided a welcome opportunity to hear our fellow yogis on a deeper level which grew daily.
I can’t add anymore about the food, service, locale and staff than has already been said in a hosanna chorus since the moment we arrived. It was just outstanding.
Thank you again for all the effort, imagination and creativity you poured into building that magical week. I left wishing we had “just one more day,” which is the highest compliment. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of it.
Namaste,
Nancy & David.

Highly recommend!! My personal training sessions are cheaper than therapy and IMO equally if not more effective!!! Megan’s yoga classes have the best sound tracks of any I’ve ever attended. She tailors each class to the students and the day…..making them empowering and relaxing……❤️❤️❤️

I'm super happy with my experience at Island Life so far! I have attended 5 classes with the unlimited trial and I absolutely love it. It's exactly what I'm looking for and what I've needed. I have scheduled a few more classes this week and I'm looking forward to them.
Definitely will be signing up for a package before these 14 days are over!

I absolutely loved Megan's class at 10:30 on Wednesday morning. It had been at least four years since I attended a yoga class, but I never felt intimidated at all. The studio is beautiful and clean. I'm really hoping I can continue my yoga journey at Island Life - even though I live thirty minutes away!

What can I say about Megan at Island life Yoga, other than I’m obsessed and she is one of the greatest positive influences I ever had in my life. Not only is she an amazing, knowledgeable trainer, but she also has become a mentor and great friend. Nine months ago, her studio quickly became a safe space for me. When you walk in you notice quickly there are no mirrors. Which helps enforce the positive body and mind energy that helps you focus on why you are there. To improve your body as a whole, not just for vanity. When I started my new healthy lifestyle a year ago, I ran into her outside her studio. She stopped me, and was like you look so healthy and happy, what are you doing? I explained I was over feeling “old” and it was time to change before I hit 40. That I had started dieting and walking, but I was interested in starting to see her for personal training once I hit my first goal of 50 lbs gone. A month later, I emailed her. I have now lost an additional 50lbs, 44 inches, and gained a lot of muscle under her training. What’s best about training with her is that she takes the time to get to know you and your body. She formulates great workouts for you at your current level and will even give you homework. These are not easy, I often laugh at what she thinks I can do, then she immediately proves that I actually can, and I’m shocked every time. Although I had started my healthy lifestyle change 3 months before I started going in for strength training, she went through my nutrition tracking apps and helped figure out ways to involve more protein, my least fav food group, to not be scared of eating fats, and actually told me to eat more. What she taught me the most besides macros is balance and to still enjoy life with the occasional taco or pizza slice. As I said, she is more than just a personal trainer, you will absolutely love the results (this isn’t the first time I have lost weight, but is the first time I have felt this strong, healthy and happy), investing in her was the best decision I ever made. And I will be a happy customer for years. Don’t walk… run… actually, you can walk… I don’t run… to Megan at Island Life yoga.

My time with Megan has been invaluable! My clothes fit, I feel healthier and more energized. She reminds me about foods and encourages exercise & walking at home, as well. Megan has always been mindful of any injuries and has been able to strengthen a problem shoulder, which got me out of pain and probable surgery!

Island Life Yoga & Nutrition studio is an awesome place. Truly a paradise of serenity and healthful living. I have been going for personal training with Megan with fantastic results. She is motivating, supportive and knows just what you need to progress to your goals. If you are anywhere near Soulard or downtown St. Louis I highly recommend. I live downtown and it's a quick 7 minute drive.

My favorite studio ever! I joined Island Life about 4 months ago when I moved into the Soulard neighborhood, and now I take classes 2-3 times a week. I tried it out because the location is so convenient to my apartment, and now I won't go anywhere else because I just love the way Megan runs her studio. Workouts are challenging but she offers plenty of modifications, and Megan always keeps things fresh, mixing in new techniques with traditional exercises and poses. My favorites are the evening vinyasa yoga and pilates classes, but I also love catching a morning hatha yoga class. Also, can't say enough amazing things about the community at Island Life: the studio seems to attract the warmest, kindest, most welcoming people. As someone new to the city and the neighborhood, it's been great to make new friends, hear about the latest local events, and get delicious restaurant recommendations from my yoga buddies. Finally, I appreciate that Megan takes client health and safety very seriously; she requires masks in accordance with local public health regulations, ensures mats are spaced >6 feet apart, runs air purifiers, and cleans the studio after every class. Overall, if you're looking for a relaxed and welcoming space for yoga with a top notch instructor, check out Island Life!

Island Life Yoga Soulard is the BEST! Megan is tough, kind, encouraging, motivating and inspiring. I have just completed 5 weeks of personal training with her. She helped me adjust my expectations for my body. She has taught me about my personal nutrition and the ways my body works. She encourages and pushes me to be better each day. I am beyond grateful for the gifts she gives me. I would recommend Megan to anyone. She truly cares about my personal goals and me as a person. Thank you, Megan. Much love!

Great neighborhood spot for yoga and food! The studio space is beautiful, and Megan is a great instructor. The class sizes are always small and intimate. After the morning yoga class, it's so convenient to grab some breakfast and coffee on my way to work! So far I've only tried the yummy yogurt parfaits - I'm looking forward to sampling more of the menu!
