What to expect

The intention of these classes is to provide a container of healing by supporting the body with the use of postures and props designed to facilitate the release of mind-body tension and bring the central nervous system to a state of balance and recovery.

Restorative yoga, also known as gentle yoga, is a type of yoga that aims to relax, revive, and refresh the body, mind, and spirit. 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.

During a restorative yoga session, you will experience slow and gentle movements, extended poses held with the help of props such as blankets and blocks, and an overall atmosphere of tranquility and ease. The poses can be held for a duration of two to twenty minutes. While restorative yoga may be similar to yin yoga, the two practices have differences. Yin yoga is intended to stretch deep layers of the body through long-held poses that apply a deliberate amount of stress while restorative focuses more on relaxing and supporting.

Yoga means union, and also union of opposites...effort and ease, strength and flexibility. To find balance in the body, we need both movement and stillness. Flow +Chill is a combination class, starting with a slower paced vinyasa, followed by restorative poses (supported by props). We will flow for half of class to warm the body up, then take the second part of class to stretch, release tension and dive into a deeper state of chill.Some classes might include sound healing, breathwork or meditation.Read class details

Best yoga studio with widest selection of classes and amazing instructors anywhere in town! I especially love the hot vinyasa classes here!

Alan D. September 16, 2025

I can’t recommend this yoga studio enough! From the moment I joined, it’s felt like a welcoming little escape in my week. The teachers are absolutely wonderful and inclusive. If you’re looking for a place that feels both grounding and uplifting, this studio is truly a gem.

Danielle F. August 26, 2025

This studio is so peaceful and beautiful, and is home to some truly incredible teachers. JJ, Sania, and Jillian are some of my favorite instructors. Brianna, the studio manager is so warm and welcoming. The functional mobility class is like PT for healthy folks. I've never taken a class like it and it's doing me a world of good!

Holly H. August 5, 2025

Very pleased to find Flow Yoga. I did the 30 for 30$ deal as a no risk, inexpensive chance to explore my options and find the perfect class style and teacher fit. Very helpful staff, great atmosphere, and convenient locations, you must try it for yourself and see.

L F. August 8, 2025

I highly recommend Flow Yoga because of the multiple locations, different styles of yoga & for their awesome/patient instructors. I’ve had a positive experience while relieving myself of pain from osteoarthritis through out my body. I took advantage of the $30 for 30 day trial membership. Enjoyed the environment so much that I’ve signed up for regular monthly unlimited. Thank you Flow Yoga!

Amy W. August 1, 2025

Great yoga studio! Highly recommend!

Mary S. July 30, 2025

Flow Yoga is such a great studio. There are so many different types of yoga classes, it has been fun to use my unlimited pass to experiment with new classes. All of the teachers are amazing. So happy they opened a new studio on South Congress.

Judy S. July 21, 2025

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Flow Yoga ATX is an amazing studio with a welcoming vibe and a variety of great instructors — I enjoyed every class I took there. But the one that was the best fit for me was Playful Power (hot) Saturdays with JJ. His classes were the perfect mix of hard work and lighthearted fun. He made breath the centerpiece of the practice in a way that kept you grounded, even when the poses got challenging. JJ has a great sense of humor, a coach’s energy, and a way of making everyone feel at ease. Highly recommend his class if you’re looking to grow your practice while having a good time!

Victorious T. July 19, 2025

I love this place! The instructors know their stuff and there’s so much variation. I haven’t had trouble finding a class that is right for me that fits my schedule.

Scarlet June 22, 2025

Class is always welcoming and enjoyable. A good blend of a flow and spirituality.
