What to expect
Yin Yoga is a contemplative style of yoga that involves holding poses for an extended period, typically three to five minutes or more. It is a slower-paced, more meditative form of the physical and spiritual discipline of yoga. Unlike other types of yoga that focus on engaging the muscles, Yin Yoga aims to target the connective tissues through passive holds and little muscular effort.
Yin yoga is meant to help promote balance within your body by working the deep connective tissues. It is a branch of hatha yoga, an ancient Indian practice that focuses on stretching and strengthening the physical body to prepare for sitting meditation.
Yin Yoga is based on three fundamental principles known as Tattvas: Edge, Stillness, and Time that are to be expected in every class. The edge refers to how deeply you go into each pose, which varies for each individual and is determined by the natural limits of your body. Props, such as blocks or blankets, can be used to support the body and help you find your edge. Once you find your edge, the goal is to remain still, and breathe deep and consistently, in the pose for an extended period of time, allowing the deep connective tissues to release. The length of time spent in each pose is an essential aspect of Yin Yoga, as it provides ample time to fully release and obtain maximum benefits.

Yoga, sound healing, ecstatic dance, breath work, erotic movement, improv, and poetry open mics? At a yoga studio? Yep! This place is awesome. I was staying in an Airbnb around the corner and stumbled on this place. $30 for the first 30 days got me and I'm glad it did. In the past week I've gotten way out of my comfort zone, experienced deep healing, found community and made friends. Can't wait to see what other magic unfolds! Thank you to the owner and all the instructors for cultivating such a wonderful space. ... read more read the full review

Where imagination blends with practice. I really like the classes here, they're just different and you get to connect with people because it's smaller and more intimate (for example the improv classes). If you're kind of weird and quirky and spiritual, you'll find your people here! ... read more read the full review

They offer a variety of different classes with really knowledgeable instructors. The space is really cool and efficient. I love that they don’t have a minimum count for a class. I’ve gone to multiple sessions where it’s just been me and the instructor and really appreciate it. My favorite sessions have been the sound bath sessions. I book through class pass and rarely use any other yoga studio to practice. Love it here! ... read more read the full review

Flowmagin offers a variety of classes (not just yoga), so there’s something for everyone. So far I’ve tried out a sound healing meditation, candlelit yin yoga, and the partner yoga/Thai massage class. I enjoyed all of them. The instructors are welcoming and very passionate about what they teach. Cool fact that I didn’t realize until recently: Flow Yoga studios (various locations), 3rd Eye, Body Collective, and Flowmagin are all sister studios. So be sure to check out their other studios in town too since each type of studio has their own unique vibe! ... read more read the full review
