What to expect
“A moving meditation”
When you hear the term “yoga flow”, or “a flow”, the type of yoga probably being referenced is Vinyasa. A Vinyasa flow is a strung together series of posture + breathe, moved through in a rhythmic flow. With a variety of poses and transitions available, nearly no two classes are alike.
A bystander with no background knowledge may look upon a vinyasa yoga class and think it is all free-flowing movement with no sequence or series, and, well, that’s the fun of it!
The derivative of the word Vinyasa:* “nyasa” means “to place”* “vi” means “in a special way”
There is consciousness and purpose to each pose, position, transition, breathe. Vinyasa is a playground - we can run around freely, feel wind in our bodies and fire in our souls, in a controlled environment, set by sequence.
While no two vinyasa yoga classes are alike, there are commonalities that streamline through each of them:
In a Vinyasa yoga class, you engage your Ujjayi Breathe. This is the act of inhaling deeply and exhaling thoroughly, all through your nose. This generates a feeling of relaxation, giving intention to each and every inhale..… and exhale.
Ujjayi Breath also helps build heat in your body during the practice, which coincides with another factor of the Vinyasa flow - it can be a bit of a cardio workout. The Sun Salutations, along with Chaturanga Dandasana, add some aerobatics to the vinyasa flow, and this is where you typically work up a sweat.
Sun Salutations - the standard warm up of a Vinyasa yoga class; a set series of movement that, physically, bring you up into a mountain pose and down, again, onto your belly, within the course of a few breathes. There are two components - Sun A and Sun B - and, typically, you move through each set three times.
Chaturanga Dandasana - this is the key transition that ends / begins each section of the series. It engages the core, arm muscles, back muscles…. well, let’s just say it engages the entire body.
Limited breathing? Cardio workout?? Excuse me, what?
No worries - like every practice of yoga, a sacred child’s pose is always available to you. And, your instructor will guide you through each piece of the practice, advising ways you can alter or adjust to fit the flow into the practice your body needs.
And, again, no two classes are alike - your instructor will take the standard blueprint and make it their own, based on their own teachings, experience, intention and general individuality.
A Vinyasa flow is a great way to engage strength, sweat, body and mind. It provides joy and peace, all in one. A moving meditation.
So, what are you waiting for? Let’s play.

It has been years since the last time I walked into a studio. Flow Yoga Georgetown was the perfect "welcome back to the practice" studio. Everyone was so kind, welcoming, and awesome. The location is so unassuming, tucked away in a strip mall. However, you feel you are in a big city studio once inside. Love this place and the people!

Just started going to this studio and absolutely fell in love. I love the diversity in class styles and variety of the flows I've been to. I also love a hands on assist! Everyone is warm and welcoming and much more of that cozy yoga community than some of the popular heated studios I had been going to around austin!

Absolutely love their yoga sessions! They’re so unique compared to other yoga classes I’ve taken. Very beginner friendly but will also offer more advanced moves if desired. Really helped me destress from college classes and is totally worth the price with unlimited classes. Their classes vary on times all throughout the day and are very flexible with my schedule.

I've loved each class so far. There is a variety of class types and the schedule allows for early morning or late evening which is great for my schedule.

I have been coming here for about six months, off and on, but consistent on Fridays at 9 with Selena. I was skeptical at first, since it was a level 3 class and to be honest, I'm like a brick and not that flexible. I met her and she assured me that it was challenging but I would be okay. As a hardcore weightlifter, I have been doing yoga off and on for fifteen years and I can honestly say that Selena is one of the best instructors I have ever had. First of all, she really pushes me to new limits. Nothing scary, just that extra push we all need at times. Second, my arms are 16 inches around and there is no way in hell I can cross my elbows. I asked her about this (because she loves feedback), and the next week she told me she met with a friend at Stretchzone and he told her somethings I could do to get more flexibility. Now, before class starts she usually talks to me and tells me what poses will be done and gives me a variation on how I can do them. You really just don't get that level of service at most places. I'm not a Yogi, or whatever, I am Selena's student and I really appreciate how much her classes have helped when I am in the gym with strength and opening up my range of motion, which has pushed my strength to new limits. Don't be afraid to take her class, be excited. You will not regret it.
