I have loved every class I've taken from Flow Yoga in multiple locations. The teachers are incredibly knowledgeable, the class descriptions are accurate and offer a lot of variety, the staff and space is very welcoming. If you're looking for your new yoga studio, definitely give Flow Yoga a try!

5 star rating Lisa M. 5 star review for Georgetown November 24, 2024

I am new to Georgetown and this has been such a nice community to join! The studios are beautiful and I love the variety of class times and types offered throughout the day.

5 star rating Peyton M. 5 star review for Georgetown November 26, 2024

Easy to sign up for classes, instructors are clear, friendly and positive throughout the class, and you are able to access multiple studios, even on 30 for $30. Overall, Greta experience

5 star rating Amy P. 5 star review for Georgetown November 26, 2024

I can't say enough wonderful things about Yoga Flow - North Loop! From the moment you step through the door, you feel an incredible sense of belonging and community. The studio does an amazing job of fostering a warm, welcoming environment that feels like a second home. Many of us live around the area and walk to classes. I get to meet up my friends here and share a cup of tea with after a class. The instructors here are top-notch. Michael's classes are my personal favorite. Each one brings their unique style and expertise, making every class both enriching and inspiring. Each instructor genuinely cares about each student, offering personalized guidance and encouragement to help you grow in your practice, no matter your level of experience. What truly sets this studio apart is its focus on learning and mindfulness. Whether you're working on the basics or exploring more advanced techniques, every class feels like an opportunity to deepen your understanding and connection to yourself. The sense of local community is palpable here. From fun events to friendly conversations before and after class, Yoga Flow is a place where connections are built and nurtured. This isn't some uptight boujee studio - this is community, this is all people from all walks of life meeting for a common love and goal. Highly recommended! 🌟

5 star rating Devynn M. 5 star review for Flow Yoga Northloop November 27, 2024

I just started Flow Yoga a few weeks ago. It is my favorite studio! It is a beautiful place with big windows and plants. The classes are not overcrowded so there is room to move. The instructors are so kind and encouraging. I go to classes about 3 times/week and look forward to each one. So happy to be here!!!

5 star rating Kara S. 5 star review for Flow Yoga Westgate November 26, 2024

Great classes for a variety of levels, and dedicated people. This studio is really welcoming and they do try to engage everybody in different ways -- such as holding community events, free yoga mats for classes and a constantly-updated website that makes it easy to sign up for classes or cancel if you can't make it.

5 star rating Allison P. 5 star review for Flow Yoga Northloop November 21, 2024

All locations are fantastic! Wonderful ambiance and great variation of classes and great teachers.

5 star rating MERCEDES J. 5 star review for Flow Yoga Northloop November 23, 2024

This is a really special studio. There is a true sense of genuine community, and all of the instructors are friendly and bring their own unique vibe and style to practice. Rates are super flexible and affordable as well. Right now, it’s only $50/month for 1 class per week. And it truly is easy to cancel or take a break if you need to. That’s hard to find at other studios and gyms. Highly recommend Flow Yoga!

The 4 pillars to our franchise structure

Our technology is the backbone of what makes our structure so successful. Our in-house team of engineers are constantly developing products and services for our studios that help them simplify their business and grow exponentially.

Flow Yoga Computer
Self Check-in

Our self check-in app is all about streamling the in-studio flow of traffic. Our studios went from having 3 studio staff on site and a line out the door to 1 or no staff and checkins that take less than 20 seconds.

Student AI (artificial intelligence)

The easiest avenue for revenue is upselling students who are already fans. Flow's Student AI learns every students interest and behavior then uses that knowledge to educate them on bigger memberships, events, trainings, retreats, etc through your website, emails, and ads.

Event Automation

Events and workshops are a big part of our revenue but managing and marketing them has always been a challenge. With our technology you publish your event on Mindbody and the event is automatically sent to your website, Eventbrite, Meetup, Google and Facebook Events.

Website

We'll upgrade your website to integrate with our systems, perform better on Google, and respond faster. With this, you'll be able to cancel your hosting services and reduce or eliminate your web developer costs.

The most challenging part of running a studio is probably the operations. Theres a lot of moving parts and not enough man power to keep everything running smooth. We are constantly developing and testing new processes to help studios run smooth.

Marketing Automation
Support

Our Austin based support team helps students, teachers and owners through chat, email and phone. From basic things like password resets, to student retention and backend software support for owners.

Training/onboarding

Across our studios we have over 150 team members at any given time. To help you deal with the ebb and flow of staff we have dozens training videos, documents and processes for your teachers, front desk, managers and you.

Programming

We have 10 years of data on classes, events and trainings. We'll work with you to develop the most ideal schedule for your studio based on what we know works and if needed we'll provide the content for trainings and workshops.

Event templates

We've run over 2,000 wellness events and have compiled a catalog of events that we know can be successful. We'll provide you with outlines, descriptions, images, even suggested days, times and prices for each event.

Expense management

All of our studios survived 2 years of shut downs during covid with no bailouts by closely managing expenses and running our finances lean. Because of our size, we also get volume discounts on many services. We can go through expenses with you to find areas to optimize and see if there are opportunities for Flow to consolidate or reduce individual expenses.

For growing your studio we'll take an aggressive approach to sales and marketing, focusing not just on getting new students in the door, but also maximizing revenue from your existing students.

Marketing Automation
Marketing automation

We heavily utilize our Student AI and Marketing Automation to sell the right service to the right student, at the right time. Our system uses dynamic sections of your website and automated emails to keep students engaged, encourage them to upgrade and educate them on upcoming events and trainings.

Paid ads

We have a library of paid ads and landing pages that work quite well. We can set these up for your brand so you can easily manage them on your own.

SEO

The goal is to get as much organic traffic to your website and studio as possible. We have nearly 20 years of experience getting non-paid traffic to small businesses. We'll focus on improving your website, social media, google listings and map listings to grow the studio quickly and organically.

Upselling

Statistically, its 5 times easier to earn additional revenue from existing customers than from new customers. We use dozens of campaigns to keep existing students engaged and interested in new and upgraded services.

When adding new studios to our network we're looking to see what services, products and processes from other other studios might benefit that studio and vice versa

Marketing Automation
Retreats

As we start to expand into retreat spaces our studios have exclusive access to all inclusive retreat centers where you can host your yoga and wellness retreats.

Teacher Training

We have incredible teacher training content that works for both in-studio and online trainings. These trainings can add an additional $100,000 - $200,000 in annual revenue to your studio. The content is turn key and gives you everything you need to run your trainings.

Class experience

From famous yogi tea after class to infused cold compresses in shavasana and plush, cozy lounges, we bring the very best student experiences from each studio and share them with our other studios.

Cacao bar

Our cacao bars bring our studios an additional $10,000 - $20,000 in monthly revenue while building community with the students and teachers. Our bars are modular and plug and play to easily add to any studio.

We've been around the block, a few times, and we pour that experience into crafting perfect classes and very special studios

We do things a little different

We're life long yogi's and have seen how yoga and wellness can quite literally change peoples lives. The community, mobility, stress relief etc etc etc can transform a whole community. When we built Flow in 2012, we built it for the love of yoga but we learned that to sustain it we needed to think more like a business. So we returned to our roots, building startups, to turn Flow into one of the fastest growing and most profitable yoga studios - and having a 10x impact on our community.

Today we're on a mission to grow this impact and make it profitable for everyone involved - from the teachers and facilitators to the studio owners like you.

We do this by heavily investing in engineering, marketing, operations and artificial intelligence to free up our in-studio team to focus on impact. In fact our engineering team alone is larger than most companies. Wait - this is a yoga brand? The most savvy yoga brand you've ever seen.
