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 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.

I started going to Flow Yoga after being sick for a few months, and it's been just what I needed to feel like myself again. The studio is beautiful and has such a calming vibe. They offer a great variety of classes, and all the teachers are fantastic. Parking is super easy, and their prices are affordable with no contracts! When I was adjusting my membership, Annie was super helpful—I got all my questions answered and everything set up quickly over chat on their website. Thanks, Flow Yoga, for being such a great support on my healing journey!

5 star rating Mindy H. 5 star review for Flow Yoga Westgate November 13, 2024

I'm so glad I found Flow Yoga. I started with their 30 days for $30 offer and tried out a lot of classes and have loved all of them. I appreciate that the yoga instructors take their time, are thoughtful with their guidance, and let you move at your own pace. I've been out of practice for a while and have never felt intimidated in a class. Instead I feel like I've found a nurturing community and relaxing place to visit when I need to take care of myself. Thanks, Flow Yoga!

Great yoga studio. Lots of options for different styles of yoga. The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. Definitely feels like more of a community than just a place to take yoga classes.

FlowYoga embodies a studio culture based on connection and healing. Being a yoga teacher and healing retreat business owner, I was very pleased with the diverse class options and beautiful energy of all the teachers. I would highly recommend this studio regardless of your skill level as it’s all about the breathe, movement and listening to your body.
