Such a wonderful first class! Perfect for any comfort level—easy to follow, calming, and completely rejuvenating. And that lavender towel at the end? Absolutely incredible. Highly recommend!

Been attending Waves classes for about 2 months with no previous Yoga experience. The staff are very welcoming, friendly and professional. I've tried many different classes and all have offered something positive to my excersize routine. If you haven't tried yoga before, you absolutely should. Helps with strength, balance, breathing, flexibility and calms the mind.

I was able to take 3 classes while traveling. A ground, a flow and a power. I loved all three. The studio is gorgeous and the instructors were all fantastic!
I’m also a yoga teacher so I’m incorporating some key takeaways. Namaste 🙏

I started going to Waves almost a year ago now, & it was 11/10 the best decision I have ever made. Trying something new can be pretty intimidating, but Ariane & her crew are always so welcoming & create such a comfortable space every day for everyone that walks into the studio! I’m so grateful to be a part of the Waves community + I know you would be too, so definitely check out Waves if you’re feeling up to changing your mind and body for the better 💝🧘🏼♀️ PS - don’t forget to check out there monthly events!! You won’t regret it 🐈

I would 1000% recommend Waves Yoga Studio to anyone looking to start their yoga journey, or those like myself who practiced years ago and have been wanting to dust off their yoga mat and get back into it! Ariane and her team are nothing short of amazing - they make you feel like family the second you walk through the door. Whether you are brand new to yoga, or a seasoned vet, they will help you step-by-step to make sure you feel confident in your poses. They offer a vast array of classes to fit individual needs, as well as multiple special events each month! Our city is SO fortunate to have Waves Yoga Studio as a place to grow spiritually, mentally, and physically <3

I found Waves at the end of 2024 and wasn't sure what to expect. I found a very inviting culture with fantastic classes of all different levels of intensity. The instructors are fantastic and I love the heated classes. The cool lavender towels at the end of every class are sooo good. I leave every class feeling refreshed and calm. ❤️

I am a Marine Corps Veteran, I have severe back issues due to my time in the Corps. Since I started going to waves about 4 months ago, my back pain has decreased significantly. I have the amazing instructors at Waves to thank for that. 10/10 would recommend every time.

I just moved to Manitowoc last year but Waves has already made it feel like home for me. There is so much care, love and knowledge that pours forth in the wide variety of classes offered that one could never get bored. Every time I show up on my mat I am challenged physically and mentally but only in the best way possible as these invaluable lessons lead me forward on my forever journey of becoming the best version of myself. Thank you Waves, a million.

I'm thrilled to be reigniting my passion for yoga and I've decided to revive my yoga routine. Before attending my first Waves class, I was nervous and anxious about trying hot yoga, but I'm so glad I took the leap. As you step inside, you're enveloped in a warm welcome by friendly yoga instructors, and the studio is truly breathtaking - a serene oasis that exudes positive energy. I've been practicing here for over a month now, and I'm already witnessing a profound transformation in both body and mind. My loved ones have even commented on my newfound calm and tranquility. As someone who deals with anxiety and stress on a daily basis, I can confidently say that The Waves has become my sacred haven, a place where I can escape the chaos of everyday life and reconnect with my inner self. Thank you for being my light of hope and transformation in my life. 🤍🤍

Yoga practice is an individualized, soulful experience & the entire staff within the walls of Waves are amazing humans that guide you to be your best; wherever that maybe each day. Their knowledge and sharing of practice movement and breath work is fabulous. They each have genuine smiles that welcome you with kindness and support. My life’s scars both literally and figuratively have benefited and heart-fully lessened from my time spent at Waves. 🌊 This is a ‘hot’ spot on the cool lakeshore! Be well!

I would be careful of her business practices, which are at a disadvantage to her customers. She has you sign up for packages, that AUTOMATICALLY get renewed and charged onto your credit card. If you don’t catch it in time to cancel, you’re out of luck. She won’t refund. She also puts a time limit on using up the classes, so if you have an injury that’s not healing for months — again, you’re out of luck. She keeps your money, and won’t extend services. This happens both to myself and a friend who was going to Waves Yoga as well. Buyer beware. I would not promote or honor a business who cares so little about her customers.

What truly sets Waves Yoga Studio apart is the sense of community. You’re not just taking a class; you’re joining a supportive group of individuals who inspire and motivate each other.

My wife and I make it a point to practice yoga here when we're in town visiting family and friends. Being from the Bay Area in CA, we have our share of great yoga, and Waves ranks right up there with the best of them. Arianne and Pete have led great classes that we've been a part of. They give knowledgeable cues, provide a great play list, and often close with fitting and inspirational quotes. Looking for yoga on the Lakeshore? Look no further and give Waves Yoga Studio a try. You won't be disappointed.

JUST LIKE HOME.....I started yoga out of trendy curiosity. Now years later, I have found yoga to be like going home. That feeling you get when you walk through your front door. The demands and stress of the day left outside as you walk in. Feeling embraced by the comfort and ease the space provides. Waves Yoga Studio, the Yogis, the Teachers, and our Yogi Queen Miss Ariane create a space that continues to call me back. Mind, body, & spirit wellness served each and every time I step on to my mat. Thank you will never be enough to Ariane or the Waves Community for the peace and wellness brought into my life after entering your doors.

Waves has given me a safe space and allowed me to save myself from myself on days I have really needed it. Taking a class with Ariane feels like a private session with your best friend. I always look forward to whatever tricky inversions Pete has up his sleeve as well as his playlists. Lauren’s classes are filled with sweet heat and Kate’s sense of humor while teaching cannot be beat. I am forever grateful for this gem of a studio.

Waves is home. I love it here, I feel safe here, and I feel loved here. While I haven't done too much studio hopping, I can confidently say the classes that are being given at Waves are what yoga is intended to be; students are taught movement properly as well as the art and history of yoga authentically. This is real yoga.
You will hear and learn Sanskrit. You will be challenged physically and mentally, but never asked to do it alone. The instructors are some of the most incredible and knowledgable I've been taught by, have become some of my greatest friends, and have supported me in ways they probably don't even know in the year that I have practiced here. How lucky are we to have a place that is so hard to leave!

I can not stress how much I LOVE this studio. I have been dragging my feet for years wanting to step into this yoga studio but not doing so out of fear of the unknown. I am not new to yoga, however I have clearly not been experiencing yoga to its full potential until now! My very first class Ariane noticed right away that I was new to class, introduced herself and took a few moments to get to know me. By my second class she greeted me by name and I felt at ease and welcome. Everything here from the people to the decor to the smells to the practice itself is amazing! Every time I leave, I feel great, mind, body and soul and look forward to going back. If you are unsure like I was about taking that first class, do not fear, you will feel safe here.

This place is so unique and beautiful! I never thought there would be such a neat place in Manitowoc WI. I appreciated that as someone who doesn’t practice yoga super frequently I was able to follow with in the class and feel comfortable the whole time. Also who doesn’t love a great spot to be active and get out of the cold!

Waves has and continues to be one of my favorite additions to Manitowoc. Their space is exactly what I need to feel grounded in my practice. Cozy yet spacious. Calming and centering.

Waves Yoga Studio has truly helped my body, mind and soul. I was experiencing joint pain and muscle tightness from injuries and biking which have greatly improved since practicing yoga at Waves. Life has been stressful and anxiety ridden over the last couple years and Waves has been my calming place. Arianne knows each client by name and makes a point of talking to each person in order to customize each yoga session. She truly has created a family feel at the studio. There are classes for each level and each class is differentiated for all levels. Waves yoga studio is an amazing place to help heal and strengthen your body, mind and soul.

After several abdominal surgeries my body has struggled to find restoration. Most days are laced with discomfort. When I first stepped foot into Waves in April, I was not new to yoga, but my experience didn't prepare me for what lay ahead. The atmosphere was thick with a welcoming and happy vibe. Kind, helpful, teachers provide fantastic instruction guided by their knowledge and training. They encourage each individual to take ownership of their own practice. Just as each of us are different our practice will be also. Yoga is not a competition, but rather an invitation to better your body and overall wellness. It is not easy, but it is so worth it! Waves is truly my happy place!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
