Overview
Mortal Yoga + Wellness is a yoga studio hidden in plain sight within Oklahoma City’s Ketch Design Centre, accessible via an unmarked east-side entrance that leads up a staircase—a deliberate sanctuary that feels like a secret. The space itself blends warm, low lighting with natural textures, creating an atmosphere both grounded and gently invigorating. The studio’s philosophy is rooted in embracing impermanence as a catalyst for presence, and this lens informs every class and interaction. Class offerings range from heated vinyasa flows and 50-minute lunchtime sessions to restorative practices with sound baths, slow meditative movement, and a dedicated beginner series. Special discounts are available for teachers, military, nurses, first responders, and students. The owner has cultivated a community that prioritizes inclusivity, where practitioners of all shapes, abilities, and backgrounds—especially those who have previously felt unwelcome in yoga—are met with respect and zero judgment. Reviews highlight the careful sequencing, welcoming instructors, and the profound sense of connection felt after practice. Mortal Yoga is not about escaping life but about returning to it more fully, one breath at a time.

Studio in Details
Overview
Tucked away on the backside of Ketch Design Centre off Western Avenue, Mortal Yoga + Wellness operates like a yoga speakeasy—hidden, intimate, and deliberately off the beaten path. Enter through the east side warehouse door and climb the stairs to find a warmly lit sanctuary where natural textures, low lighting, and a sense of ritual set the tone. The studio’s name and ethos are rooted in the awareness of impermanence; this isn’t a space for escape, but for waking up to the present moment. Owner Devin has created a community built on presence, inclusivity, and the belief that yoga should be accessible to everyone, regardless of shape, ability, age, or background. The studio explicitly welcomes those who have felt that yoga wasn’t for them, and the atmosphere reflects that openness—supportive without being precious, sacred but with room to laugh or wobble.
Classes and Services
The class schedule is thoughtfully diverse, catering to a range of schedules and experience levels. Signature offerings include Mortal Flow + Restore, a 75-minute Sunday class that blends mindful vinyasa with deep restorative poses, set to a carefully curated playlist. Standard vinyasa flows emphasize strength, breath, and presence, available in both full-length and 50-minute lunchtime versions. For those seeking slower movement, there are slow flow and meditation options, introspective yoga focused on letting go, and restorative classes designed to regulate the nervous system, often ending with a sound bath. A morning heat-building practice and a strength-based early class help orient the day. Beginners are supported through a dedicated series covering alignment, confidence, and the language of the body. Meditation circles led by teachers and sound healers offer guided stillness. Recognizing the demanding roles of educators, military personnel, nurses, and first responders, Mortal offers discounted rates for these groups. College and high-school students also receive a 10% discount, with a simple check-in process to maintain accessibility.
Visitor Experience
Reviews consistently describe Mortal as a warm, enveloping space where attention to detail is evident in every corner.

Instructors are noted as friendly, welcoming, and skilled at creating a comfortable environment for all levels. Class sequencing is thoughtful and clear, allowing practitioners to move at their own pace. The moody, cool entrance matches the studio’s branding and adds to the sense of discovery. Beyond the physical practice, visitors report leaving class feeling more present, connected, and themselves. The studio’s app simplifies booking and tracking classes. Overall, Mortal fosters an inclusive, inspiring atmosphere where the emphasis is on coming as you are, with no pressure to perform or be anyone other than oneself.
