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.

Deep Chill combines gentle movement with deep relaxation to help you release tension and find calm. This class starts with slow, easy stretches to work out stiffness, then transitions to restful positions. By staying low to the ground and holding poses longer, you facilitate a gentle myofascial release, helping to ease tension in the body's connective tissues while quieting the nervous system. Slow and low to the ground make it easy for people at any level, leaving you feeling grounded and refreshed.   Read class details

Yoga represents the union of opposites—effort and ease, strength and flexibility—and this class is designed to help you find that perfect balance through both movement and stillness. We begin with a slower-paced Vinyasa flow for the first half of the session to warm the body and build mindful heat, before transitioning into a series of restorative poses supported by props. This intentional shift allows you to release deep-seated tension and dive into a state of chill.Some classes may be enhanced with sound healing, breathwork, or meditation. Read class details

I’ve loved Flow Yoga. I started with the 30-d trial and have kept an unlimited membership because it’s so easy to pop in when I can- there’s a wide variety of teachers and styles of classes and the portal to sign up for a class is easy and a single click. Grateful they opened up the south location and hopefully more across Austin!

I was invited to Flow by a friend and after that first class I couldn't wait to join. The price to value ratio is amazing - almost feels like a rarity these days. The spaces, the teachers, the opportunities beyond yoga are incredible. I plan to attend a retreat in the spring and I can't wait!

I found flow yoga about a month ago, and was excited of the variety of classes they offer. I am recovering from cancer related procedures and stumbled upon Yin style yoga and it is helping me so much. The teachers are all amazing and the studio provides a variety so anyone can find what they are looking for. This is a safe place! Thanks Flow!

A little glimpse into
who we are

Flow Yoga Cedar Park memorial tribute for beloved teacher Jillian Coogan Austin Texas

With heavy hearts, we share the passing of our beloved teacher and community member, Jillian Coogan For more than three years, Jillian was a beautiful part of the Flow Yoga family. She brought a unique light into our spaces, joyful, quirky, deeply kind, and wholeheartedly devoted to healing. Whether teaching on the mat or offering bodywork at Flow Westgate, Jillian shared her gifts with genuine care, helping so many feel supported, restored, and seen. Jillian embodied the spirit of yoga in the way she lived, with openness, compassion, humor, and heart. Her presence touched countless lives, and the ripple of her kindness will continue to move through this community for years to come. At this time, we do not yet fully understand the circumstances surrounding her passing, and we ask for patience and compassion as we navigate this loss together. In collaboration with Jillian’s family, we invite our community to gather in her honor for a Celebration of Life on Friday, March 6th from 4 to 8pm at Flow Yoga Westgate. This will be a come and go gathering to remember Jillian, share stories, grieve together, and find comfort in community. We welcome you to stop by, hold space, and honor the beautiful light and love she shared with us all. In moments like this, words often fall short. We invite our community to pause, breathe, and hold Jillian in your hearts, perhaps dedicating a practice, a moment of stillness, or write a message in her honor at the little memorial table we created at the studio, the messages will be given to her family. May we care gently for one another as we move through this grief together. With love and reverence, Flow Yoga team
