The Yoga Place’s Pam Starcher making yoga a New Year’s resolution

Instead of having Pam Starcher stop in at WIZM, we took La Crosse Talk PM to her, and discussed how to make yoga a New Year’s resolution, right from her studio at The Yoga Place at Fifth and Main streets, downtown. 

La Crosse Talk PM airs weekdays at 5:06 p.m. Listen on the WIZM app, online here, or on 92.3 FM / 1410 AM / 106.7 FM (north of Onalaska). Find all the podcasts here or subscribe to La Crosse Talk PM wherever you get your podcasts.

Stacher has been the owner for a decade but The Yoga Place has been there nearly 40 years and was La Crosse’s first-ever yoga studio.

For those who want to try and make yoga their thing in 2025, Starcher has a beginner series for eight Monday’s from 4-5 p.m. beginning Jan. 6. 

So, we talk about her approach to yoga, how to make that a resolution you can keep and the way she makes yoga inclusive for people of all abilities.

We hit on how how athletes could benefit from yoga, and how a lot of people wish they would have gotten into it sooner. 

We also talked a bit about the studio itself, its location in City Square and how that was the old Herberger’s, when all the big box stores used to be downtown.
