What to expect
“A moving meditation”
When you hear the term “yoga flow”, or “a flow”, the type of yoga probably being referenced is Vinyasa. A Vinyasa flow is a strung together series of posture + breathe, moved through in a rhythmic flow. With a variety of poses and transitions available, nearly no two classes are alike.
A bystander with no background knowledge may look upon a vinyasa yoga class and think it is all free-flowing movement with no sequence or series, and, well, that’s the fun of it!
The derivative of the word Vinyasa:* “nyasa” means “to place”* “vi” means “in a special way”
There is consciousness and purpose to each pose, position, transition, breathe. Vinyasa is a playground - we can run around freely, feel wind in our bodies and fire in our souls, in a controlled environment, set by sequence.
While no two vinyasa yoga classes are alike, there are commonalities that streamline through each of them:
In a Vinyasa yoga class, you engage your Ujjayi Breathe. This is the act of inhaling deeply and exhaling thoroughly, all through your nose. This generates a feeling of relaxation, giving intention to each and every inhale..… and exhale.
Ujjayi Breath also helps build heat in your body during the practice, which coincides with another factor of the Vinyasa flow - it can be a bit of a cardio workout. The Sun Salutations, along with Chaturanga Dandasana, add some aerobatics to the vinyasa flow, and this is where you typically work up a sweat.
Sun Salutations - the standard warm up of a Vinyasa yoga class; a set series of movement that, physically, bring you up into a mountain pose and down, again, onto your belly, within the course of a few breathes. There are two components - Sun A and Sun B - and, typically, you move through each set three times.
Chaturanga Dandasana - this is the key transition that ends / begins each section of the series. It engages the core, arm muscles, back muscles…. well, let’s just say it engages the entire body.
Limited breathing? Cardio workout?? Excuse me, what?
No worries - like every practice of yoga, a sacred child’s pose is always available to you. And, your instructor will guide you through each piece of the practice, advising ways you can alter or adjust to fit the flow into the practice your body needs.
And, again, no two classes are alike - your instructor will take the standard blueprint and make it their own, based on their own teachings, experience, intention and general individuality.
A Vinyasa flow is a great way to engage strength, sweat, body and mind. It provides joy and peace, all in one. A moving meditation.
So, what are you waiting for? Let’s play.

Such a lovely space with the kindest people! Everyone is so welcoming and down-to-earth, making it easy to settle in. I love the tea in the common area. It’s a simple but thoughtful touch. And the new expanded room? So good. Spacious, grounding, and full of good energy ✨

As someone who has been teaching & practicing yoga for well over a decade in Austin I have been pleasantly surprised to find a new gem of a studio! The space is very comfortable with a very warm, welcoming, homey feel to it. I’m really enjoying the particular variety of classes (& times) this studio has chosen to offer: there is something for everyone everyday on the schedule. Parking is so easy and plentiful (a big deal around here). The whole space is big open, neat, clean and beautifully decorated. The bathrooms are clean and spacious. There is water and warm tea for everyone. Check in easy and relaxed! The manager, Mandy, at this space is delightful, not to mention the talented and seasoned teachers there. I really do give this studio high marks. I’ve been looking for a new space that feels this genuine and welcoming with quality classes. And so I have. I am back to a regular practice thanks to Flow.

I’ve been looking for a studio where yoga is treated and respected as the spiritual practice it is - I’m relieved to have found that in Flow Yoga! The community is beautiful, the space feels sacred, and the teachers are amazing. Can’t recommend this place enough!

Instructors are amazing. It's such a cute small studio that leaves a lot of room for community building and socializing. It is super easy to sign up for classes, sometimes even 30 minutes before they start. They just expanded one of their rooms and added a stage which has been a huge help when you are learning new poses.

I'm loving the studio. Besides being a very beautiful space, all the teachers and all the classes I have taken I really enjoyed. After not doing yoga for 6 years I was a little scare to start taking classes, but I have been feeling very comfortable at FlowYoga and teachers are very nice and offer modifications. They have a variety of c=yoga classes and styles. All levels and many many classes 7 days a week. I know they have many locations but I have been going to North Loop because is the one closest to me. As a yoga certified teacher myself I highly recommend this studio.
