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.

Flowmagin is a wonderful community with unique offerings, caring teachers, and a beautifully inspiring space. I wish there was better insulation to reduce the comedy club and music noise but the neighborhood is vibrant and fun, so it’s still worth it. Thank you for nurturing this beautiful community. Keep up the great work!

I absolutely love this studio. The classes are so unique yet so much fun, and often allow you to get silly. More than anything, I love the community - it's a great place to make friends.

5 star rating Cyrus B. 5 star review for Flowmagin June 11, 2024

It's in the name. This is a different kind of yoga studio. 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!

A gem! 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.

I’ve been going to flowmagin for about 3 months now and I love it. 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!

Make sure to check out their full schedule! 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!

This studio is my happy place. All the colors and the squishy floors make the experience unique. Highly recommend the Yoga & Somatics class with Anna K. It has been the absolute best way to start my week regulated and ready to go!

5 star rating Sara M. 5 star review for Flowmagin

I have done some breathwork and movement classes at flowmagin the past couple months. Everyone is super welcoming from the staff to the patrons. I haven't done classes like this before, but I would highly recommend this place to beginners. I'm really glad I stumbled upon this studio. It has a great community, and the design of the inside is very quirky and fun. :D

5 star rating Patrick D. 5 star review for Flowmagin

The breathwork classes run here by Derek and Sam are absolutely amazing, so much healing happens in the states they are bringing us to where trauma can just float up and release by pumping enough oxygen to speed up the mental processing of new information relating to memories altered by over recall over time. Real healers too Monday 6 breathwork 7 ecstatic movement 8:30 erotic movement Nice set of classes after breath work to ground in the healing Highly recommend
