Edgemont Healing Center operates as a centralized location for healing arts in Southwest Louisiana, offering far more than a traditional yoga studio. Visitors describe it as a sanctuary where mind, body, and spirit come together, with a mission focused on creating connection and community in mid-city Lake Charles. The space itself is noted for being serene, welcoming, and calming, with people mentioning that all the small details have been thoughtfully considered to foster this atmosphere.

The overall identity is that of a warm, inviting collective where healing and personal growth are prioritized.
The center provides a safe, welcoming space that hosts a variety of practitioners. While yoga is a core offering, the center explicitly states, “We are not just yoga!” It functions as a hub where many healers and instructors host their own classes and events. This model allows for a diverse range of services to be available to the community from various gifted practitioners. The physical space is praised by visitors, with specific mention of a beautiful studio with nice low-impact floors ideal for yoga. The entrance is through a blue door on the 10th Street side of the building at the corner of Kirkman and 10th Street. The center’s philosophy is rooted in the connectivity of mind, body, spirit, and community, which visitors say is vital and beneficial.
A Diverse Array of Classes and Healing Modalities
The primary offerings extend well beyond standard yoga classes, encompassing a broad spectrum of wellness practices. According to the center’s own description and visitor feedback, available services include yoga, sound immersion, meditation, massage, art therapy, workshops, and life coaching. There are also mentions of energy healing services and counseling specialists on site. People highlight the wonderful variety of classes and workshops, which provide options for every yogi level and interest. Special events and workshops are a significant draw, with people noting interesting offerings like breathing workshops, sound baths, and artistic events. The schedule includes weekly yoga classes, weekend workshops, and miniseries, ensuring there is consistently an ample amount of activity each month.
Yoga remains a central pillar, with classes taught by different instructors, each bringing their own unique personality, style, and skills. Visitors do not specify particular yoga styles like Vinyasa or Hatha in their feedback, but they emphasize the quality and variety. Instructors are described as highly trained, deeply empathetic, knowledgeable, and accommodating. They are noted for their ability to meet students where they are, whether beginners or advanced practitioners. Specific teachers like Kelley Saucier (also referred to as Kelly) receive frequent praise for her alignment cues, vast knowledge of yoga and life coaching, and the one-on-one “Office Hours” she offers. Another practitioner, Josh, is highlighted by visitors as an exceptional massage therapist. The preparation and training of the teachers are considered top-notch by those who attend.
