Theres a reason Flow is one of the highest rated wellness brands
Flow is known as the big tent for wellness. While yoga is our foundation, at our studios you'll find hundreds of events, free meetups, people discovering wellness for the first time and old friends chatting in our tea lounges.
While most franchise yoga studios focus on 1 or 2 styles of yoga, we're here for the full yoga experience, from traditional to modern styles, heated and non-heated, and everything in between. Flow's got the widest selection of classes in town
I just started at Flow Yoga and immediately felt like I found a home! 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking to start practicing.

I love this studio! They have such a variety of classes to choose from, really great events (Kirtan singing, new moon sound bath, etc.), and awesome teachers. The studio is gorgeous and it's in a great location in Georgetown. I highly recommend checking them out.

I started going to Flow Yoga after being sick for a few months, and it's been just what I needed to feel like myself again. The studio is beautiful and has such a calming vibe. They offer a great variety of classes, and all the teachers are fantastic. Parking is super easy, and their prices are affordable with no contracts! When I was adjusting my membership, Annie was super helpful—I got all my questions answered and everything set up quickly over chat on their website. Thanks, Flow Yoga, for being such a great support on my healing journey!

I'm so glad I found Flow Yoga. I started with their 30 days for $30 offer and tried out a lot of classes and have loved all of them. I appreciate that the yoga instructors take their time, are thoughtful with their guidance, and let you move at your own pace. I've been out of practice for a while and have never felt intimidated in a class. Instead I feel like I've found a nurturing community and relaxing place to visit when I need to take care of myself. Thanks, Flow Yoga!

Just started going to this studio and absolutely fell in love. I love the diversity in class styles and variety of the flows I've been to. I also love a hands on assist! Everyone is warm and welcoming and much more of that cozy yoga community than some of the popular heated studios I had been going to around austin!

It has been years since the last time I walked into a studio. Flow Yoga Georgetown was the perfect "welcome back to the practice" studio. Everyone was so kind, welcoming, and awesome. The location is so unassuming, tucked away in a strip mall. However, you feel you are in a big city studio once inside. Love this place and the people!

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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'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.
