Authentic Relating At Flow Yoga Westgate with Heather M.

How we see others has more to do with ourselves than them.

We can explore our projections to learn about ourselves and even use projections in a connecting way.


Authentic Relating (AR) is the practice of freely expressing your authentic experience in the company of others.

Expressing in this way enables you to create connections in the world based on who you really are.
Authentic Relating practices create a safe, intentional space - rooted in play and supported by clear boundaries - to create meaningful and enjoyable connections to self and others. By learning Authentic Relating skills, you can drop your conditioned relational habits, and learn to relate with yourself and others from a deeper more authentic expression of your truth.

You'll be led through exercises designed to help you heal your relationship with yourself, and learn to be comfortable in your own skin—then connect with others as your newfound 'authentic' self. Put simply, this is a place to practice being human.

This is an opportunity to:
Expand your friend circle
Learn something about yourself
Explore the human experience
Have the courage to reveal something about yourself
Have the compassion to hold space for another as they reveal themselves
Feel and express JOY

Flow Yoga Westgate in Westgate Austin Texas Derrek P.

Hot Vinyasa yoga offers a dynamic hot yoga experience where poses flow together with breath in a hot room (85-90 degrees). Vinyasa keeps you constantly moving through creative sequences that never feel repetitive. The combination of heat and continuous movement creates an energizing practice that quickly builds internal warmth, promotes detoxification through sweat, and helps muscles stretch more deeply.  The hot environment intensifies the experience, creating greater flexibility and a purifying sweat without the extreme temperatures of some other hot yoga styles.Read class details

Flow Yoga Westgate in Westgate Austin Texas Tej A.

Kundalini Yoga combines powerful breathing techniques, dynamic movements, and focused meditation to awaken energy in your body. Classes typically include repetitive movements (called "kriyas"), specific breathing patterns, chanting, and meditation that work together to balance your glandular system and strengthen immunity. Unlike other yoga styles, Kundalini sessions often feature rapid breathing, rhythmic movements, and holding positions while breathing in specific patterns. These practices help release stored tension, increase mental clarity, and create a sense of emotional balance and wellbeing. Suitable for all abilities - every exercise can be modified to match your current fitness level. Pro tip: Each teacher brings their unique approach to Kundalini Yoga. Try at least 5 different classes to experience the wide variety of exercises and techniques this practice offers.Learn more about KundaliniRead class details

Yin Yoga in Westgate Austin Texas on 2025-06-22 at 7 - 8pm

 
Flow Yoga Westgate in Westgate Austin Texas Paola Aguirre W.

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.Read class details

I enjoy coming to this yoga studio, it has really beautiful energy and I had a big breakthrough with breath work here. Thank you to everyone who makes this place so special.

Flow Yoga has a bunch of different yoga styles and it's beginner friendly. The facility is clean and calming. I highly recommend!

Bart F. June 8, 2025

I've been going to Flow Yoga for a couple months now and it's been an awesome experience! The instructors are knowledgeable, the energy is always positive, and the studio space always feels welcoming. Highly recommend.

Logan S. June 10, 2025

Flow Yoga Westgate is wonderful! They have lots of different classes and tons of time frames to fit a busy schedule. Everything about the studio is top notch!

Kelly M. May 27, 2025

Easily the best, most affordable, and most welcoming yoga studio I've ever been to! I just joined about a month ago on the new member plan, the fact that I've gone to dozens of classes already for only $30? ... insane! Honestly, I think the unlimited plan is so so worth it if you're looking to go more than once a week, too. I used to frequent another studio in austin and eventually stopped my membership because the cost was not sustainable for me and I never really.. clicked with the classes. Every class there either felt too challenging or too relaxing. But here, I don't feel that at all! Every single teacher has been so welcoming, always include plenty of options to modify poses and have very unique touches to their classes. Plus the actual space is gorgeous at the Westgate studio!! I've already renewed my membership for the next month and can easily see myself staying for a long time to come

Ariana V. May 20, 2025

Have been to several classes over the past 2 months and have greatly enjoyed this studio. Several different teachers with different styles and flows available. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. Would recommend for beginners and/or seasoned yogi's. Will be back for more.

Christina A. May 13, 2025

I started going to Flow Yoga on their 30 days for $30 pass which is such a good means of introducing their studio. I am more than likely going to sign on as a regular attendee as I’ve so enjoyed the classes. The space is beautiful and the instructors are welcoming and kind. I am a bodybuilder so dynamic movement isn’t as common for me in my day to day and have been using this as a means of getting back to my dancer roots, relieving aches and pains, and connecting with my body and it has been wonderful. Can’t recommend this studio enough. My favorite class so far is JJ’s flexibility + mobility. Check them out!

alexa s. May 14, 2025

Flow has a great variety of class types & levels and special events. I returned to yoga with reduced abilities after many years away and felt very welcomed here, even in classes with more demanding content.

Alexa C. May 2, 2025

I am loving the variety of classes offered at Flow Yoga. There is a wonderful community gathering at the Westgate location and all of the yoga instructors have been very knowledgeable and welcoming.
