I've been attending the Flowin' Fundamentals classes on Saturday mornings.
I love this class. Most of the time, while I’m practicing yoga I get wrapped up forcing myself into a pose or looking around to make sure that I am keeping up with everyone else. This class forces me to focus on my own practice and my mind body connection. Lorraine has become one of my favorite teachers. As someone who is always in my head, it’s refreshing not to have to think about where my body is supposed to be. She talks you step by step through every pose, through every breath. There are things that I’ve always told myself that I couldn’t do, but by the time I’ve finished following directions, I’m doing the exact thing that my brain has told me that I cannot do. I love this class and I’m really looking forward to seeing how much my practice will improve by the end of the series.

What an incredible studio! The staff here are absolutely amongst the best teachers in the DMV. The classes are well planned and challenging with a strong emphasis on honoring your body. The owner is a visionary. In this space, I have learned how to celebrate and create my own practice. It's improved my strength, flexibility, and mental health. Being able to practice with agency has done wonders for my confidence and relationship with myself. If you don't have a home studio, I highly suggest this one. Additionally, the sense of community is VERY strong for EVERYONE. An incredible place to grow and heal...also good exercise. Definitely check it out.

I love that they offer mid day classes to go during the work day, especially in the winter when it’s dark by 5pm! The class was great, beginner friendly and I will definitely be back.

I’m glad that I came out to Peyton’s sound bath session. I left her class feeling grounded with a deep sense of clarity and contentment that lasted way into the next day. Thank you Peyton!

Great atmosphere! Peyton was absolutely amazing. This was my friends’ and my first time attending a sound bath/Reiki event, and she was so kind, walking us through everything step by step. She explained the benefits of each part of the session in detail as we progressed. I highly recommend this experience, especially if you’re struggling with anxiety, stress, or feelings of worry and overwhelm. The staff is incredibly friendly, and the services are highly beneficial.

I learned about the Clearing through the amazing classes of FlowWell Yoga. All of the instructors are so supportive and kind. It’s the first time I’ve ever been in a yoga class that was really fun and you can move your body in ways that work for you versus trying to force your body into a certain shape.

There are a variety of styles and levels plus offerings such as a sound healing session. I’m a fan of the Kemetic yoga, Friday HH Flow and Sunday Freedom Flow. This is the first time that I’ve joined a yoga studio and attended classes on a regular basis. It’s definitely because of the great instructors, variety in styles and the overall welcoming atmosphere of the community. I always walk out of the Clearing feeling way more calm, clearheaded and confident about being able to handle the ups and downs of life.

I highly recommend trying out the unlimited class membership. You’ll be happy that you took a step to take care of yourself.

Stephon, Royce, and the FlowWell team are so passionate about what their mission and what they do, and it is clear in all of the classes I've been to. I've been to so many classes and multiple studios, but FlowWell truly feels like home.

I’ve lived in the neighborhood for a few years and I’ve been waiting for a brilliant soul to bring a true yoga studio to us.

I’ve gotten more than I expected and it’s only been a few weeks with this yoga studio. I feel at home, safe, and considered!
