UpDog Studios Closed thru April 13 During Michigan COVID-19 Executive Order
It is with very heavy hearts to announce that we have closed both UpDog Rochester and Sterling Hgts. studio locations thru April 13 in compliance with the governor's COVID-19 executive order. The order specifically limits indoor exercise/fitness facilities from remaining open to groups of people during this time. We are committed to the health and wellness of you, our valued clients, as well as our instructors and all patrons of both studios, and will endeavor to do our part to assist in stopping both the spread and elimination of the COVID-19 virus in our communities.
We absolutely plan to re-open on April 14, or as soon as the order is lifted and deemed safe to do so. Please visit this page for updates.
In the meantime, we are here for you to stay connected in other ways! Please CLICK HERE to view details about "UpDog Yoga From Home" Online Yoga Classes, Virtual Yoga sessions by appt., and other online happenings.
We are ever grateful for your continued support during these difficult and constantly changing times.

Germicidal UVC Sterilaser™ Now At UpDog Studios: Sterlizes All Practice Rooms, Floors and Yoga Mats (including yours) In Seconds!
As we are all in the midst of Coronavirus and being mindful of maintaining a clean, germ-free space, want to share some news about the new Sterilaser™ cleaning device we now have at UpDog and will be using on all floors thruout the studio.
We will use this unit as part of our regular cleaning regimen when we are permitted to re-open for regular in-studio classes (in addition to our regular dry and wet mop cleaning procedures we do on all practice room floors 2-3 times daily, as well as hallways, lobby and bathroom floors).
What is also very cool is that we can also use it to disinfect all of our rental Yoga mats and can even use on your own personal Yoga mat just by running it across your mat before and/or after class!
Sterilaser delivers a massive dose of germicidal ultraviolet (UVC) lights to disinfect any large flat surface. When pulled at a normal walking pace, it will kill over 99.7% of all pathogens in its path in less than a quarter of a second (as verified by bio-medical testing at Oakland University and other studies). It is perfectly safe, super quick, easy to use, and a chemical free (Green Technology) product.
It destroys dangerous germs, bacteria and viruses such as Hepatitis, STAPH (including MRSA), E-Coli, Salmonella, HIV and the Influenza-Viruses. Microorganisms, such as ring worm and dust mites are instantly killed as is mold and mildew. As a "Green Technology" UVC does not contribute to the development of resistant strains of microorganisms, as do other antimicrobials and antibiotics.
Hospitals have been using germicidal UVC for years to disinfect and sterilize. The Sterilaser unit in particular has been around for about 7 years and was concepted and manufactured right here in Rochester, MI out of a need to disinfect wrestling and gymnastics mats and is actively used in schools and gymnasiums nationwide. An UpDog client's husband, who is a former wrestler, emailed me about it a few weeks ago when we began evaluating and looking for ways to further improve our cleanliness procedures to combat Coronavirus.
I'm just pleased to be able to find a way to bring this same germicidal technology into the studio to make it as germ free as possible and to give all a little more peace of mind when practicing. We have two Sterilaser units and will use at both of the UpDog Rochester and Sterling Hgts. locations on a daily basis.
Check out the video to see the Sterilaser in action!
