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.

Yin is a slow, mindful practice that targets the connective tissues, such as ligaments, joints, and fascia. Working with the energetic systems of the body, Yin Yoga brings the body into balance, and improves its natural range of motion. Most poses are done while seated or lying down supported by the use of props, and are held in stillness for several minutes. As we move into stillness, we bring body, breath and soul into harmony. It’s a perfect complement to physical yoga practice. You will leave class feeling refreshed, renewed and restored.

I have been very pleased to reconnect with my yoga practice through Flow Yoga. The variety of classes and instructors that are available make it very accommodating to find just what I need. Although I am limited in my abilities, no one makes me feel like I don’t belong! If there were anything I would like to see different, it would be for them to replace the bolsters with new ones. I’m very grateful to have this wonderful studio available to me!

5 star rating Lana R. 5 star review for Flow Yoga Westgate January 5, 2025

Flow Yoga is an amazing yoga resource for people in Austin, and I love the Westgate studio the most. It's a great location with a lot of variety of classes to choose from. The instructors are all skilled and engaging, and it feels like an intimate experience every class. As someone who only did vinyasa before joining Flow, I've loved learning Hatha, flexibility + mobility and more - there is something for everyone here!

5 star rating Rachel N. 5 star review for Flow Yoga Westgate January 2, 2025

This place is amazing and so value to my personal practice and life. I appreciate the range of intensity they have for their classes as well as the range of type of classes from yoga to meditation to sound baths across all their studios. And their studios are an incredible vibe. I love spending time in their lounge drinking the chai they always have available. This place has become a second home to me and I enjoy it so much.

I LOVE this place! Great instructors and vibe with plenty of offerings all day, 7 days/week. I’m pretty new to Austin and was hoping to find a home studio and this has become the one. Yoga Flow is a happy, clean and calm place.

I just started Flow Yoga a few weeks ago. It is my favorite studio! It is a beautiful place with big windows and plants. The classes are not overcrowded so there is room to move. The instructors are so kind and encouraging. I go to classes about 3 times/week and look forward to each one. So happy to be here!!!
