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 am OBSESSED with this place. If I wasn't traveling / moving again I would have easily made this my go-to spot living in Austin. Every instructor, class and fellow student was so kind and warm. I can't wait to come back every time I visit Austin

5 star rating Brooke F. 5 star review for Flow Yoga Westgate February 11, 2025

This is a proper yoga studio! In the age of performative spirituality and competitive mindsets, the teachers at Flow Yoga bring grounded, authentic, creative, and healing energy to every class. My favorite class is Meg's Sunday morning Mobility & Flexibility class but I'll also do anything taught by JJ Pepper.

5 star rating Paige L. 5 star review for Flow Yoga Westgate February 12, 2025

I’ve been going to Jillian’s amazing flow classes on Tuesday and Thursday evenings for over a year and can’t say enough about them. Recently, having more time on my hands, I’ve been checking out daytime classes and have been consistently impressed by all of the instructors. The studio is truly a magical place where no matter what is going on in your life, if you make it there and onto a mat you will always be so glad you did.

5 star rating Victoria H. 5 star review for Flow Yoga Westgate February 4, 2025

Every class I’ve attended at Flow Yoga has been better than the last! Truly a great spot to get your yoga fix-whether you want to relax, build strength, build flexibility, or just get a really good workout, Flow Yoga has it all.

5 star rating Alicia C. 5 star review for Flow Yoga Westgate February 5, 2025

I wanted to get back to a regular yoga practice at a studio, so I tried Flow Yoga Westgate with their new student special. The studio staff, instructors, and clientele are very welcoming. There are a variety of instructors, yoga styles, and classes available at times that work with busy schedules. I love it so much that I continued with the Unlimited option. One of the nice things about this "membership" is there are no contracts, no sign-up fee, and no cancellation fee. A bonus is their tasty yogi tea!

5 star rating Janet R. 5 star review for Flow Yoga Westgate February 6, 2025

Flow Yoga is everything you want in a yoga studio/community. I am so grateful I found them! The classes are transformative and healing, every single one! And the instructors are encouraging and soothing, challenging and nurturing. I feel like I'm floating when I walk out of each class. Even with a busy schedule, I am able to find a class/studio I can make it to, and kept my 30 day daily commitment to yoga. Now that 30 days have passed, I'm completely hooked and fully committed to Flow Yoga.

5 star rating Sherry K. 5 star review for Flow Yoga Westgate January 29, 2025

I love it here! I've never belonged to a yoga studio and I've felt welcomed. This is a great place for a beginner (such as myself) to enjoy yoga and not feel intimidated.
