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.

I recently did the trial membership and will definitely be converting to a regular membership. The classes are all very approachable, the teacher’s knowledgeable and friendly, and your membership lets you go to any of the locations, which gives me options at home or work. Great classes, great vibe 10/10 recommend.

Great studio! I love the variety of classes and fact that you can visit so many different locations for classes. Yoga plus so much more. I’ve enjoyed all of my classes. I frequent the North Loop location and really like the morning Hot Vinyasa classes

I arrived at the studio by a happy accident, and ended up staying for the entire day. Flow Westgate is a spacious, clean, and vibrant studio with friendly staff and comfortable amenities. With plenty of options for all levels of yogis, I highly recommend this Austin studio.

Great range of classes and the events on the weekend makes this studio different from others and help foster community. The space inside is very beautiful and smells nice. It’s affordable and I even found a great masseuse who works from a beautiful room there. They always have mats to borrow for free if you forget yours. Sometimes there are some technical glitches on the mindbody app where it won’t allow you to sign up for weekend or one-time events, but if you come to the studio you can sign in easily there.

I can't believe I've lived in Austin for so long without discovering Flow Yoga. I love this studio, the staff, the instructors, the clients. Everyone I've come into contact with have been open, warm and welcoming. The Ra studio is light, airy and large. I like the built in stage and when the instructor uses it, it helps that everyone in the class can see them. I like that the instructors can be hands on as being manipulated into the correct postures is a key to understanding and practicing to your best ability. I would highly recommend anyone to give this wonderfully inclusive, spiritual studio a try. I'm also excited to be taking my first teacher training class here with Angie. I've been waiting for years to find the right course. I hope its everything I have been waiting for.
