Experience Workouts, Community, and Inspiration with Host Dean Polhman &
Man Flow Yoga Coaches
This weekend is a wellness weekend, not just a yoga workshop. Yes, we’ll be helping you improve your yoga practice. But we’ll also be focusing on building lasting motivation and creating sustainable habits for your health and fitness.
You’ll take part in yoga sessions where you’ll fine-tune your technique, get real-time feedback from the coaches, and learn modifications that make poses work for your body. You’ll build strength, flexibility, and confidence while finally understanding what each pose is supposed to feel like.
Plus, you’ll have the chance to connect directly with the coaches during Q&A sessions. Get answers to your specific questions, talk through struggles with consistency, and hear advice from guys who’ve been where you are. Whether it’s workout routines, nutrition strategies, or staying motivated, you’ll leave with clear, actionable steps tailored to your goals.
This isn’t just about yoga—it’s about movement, motivation, and real-life strategies you can actually use. Whether you’re new to yoga or experienced, you’ll walk away feeling stronger, more focused, and ready to keep making progress.

Yes, you can. There’s plenty of parking, no cost.
If you are visiting Austin from out of town for the event, we recommend arriving on Friday evening. We will likely organize an informal meet and greet for anybody who is there, and all are welcome to attend. Our first session begins at 9am. Plan to arrive with enough time before to get checked in and set up. It takes 15 minutes to get to the airport from the venue.
We suggest wearing anything you feel comfortable doing yoga in. For some, this might look like yoga pants and t-shirts. For others, it’s casual everyday clothes. Whatever makes you comfortable and is flexible enough to train in. You’ll likely break a sweat, so be prepared for that!
The studio we are renting does have yoga equipment available, if you do not want to travel with your yoga equipment. However, it is not the super cool Man Flow Yoga cork yoga mat you probably have at home, so you might want to bring that. 😉 Blocks, straps, and bolsters are provided.
There are no official events outside of the schedule, but we will help connect you with other attendees prior to the event, and anybody who wants to will be able to attend off-site group events for dinners or breakfasts.
There are plenty of affordable hotels in the area. We do not have a hotel block that you can join, we have found in the past that it is more affordable for you to book on your own versus us organizing a hotel block. We are recommending that people stay here: Staybridge Suites Austin South Interstate Hwy 35, an IHG Hotel 901 Little Texas Ln Building #F, Austin, TX 78745
The event is not being held downtown, and it is not walkable. So, we recommend renting a car or using Uber or Lyft. You will be able to park your car at the hotel without any parking costs.
You can check out this website for ways to plan things to do in Austin and learn more about the neighborhood. https://www.austintexas.org/
You can expect two dedicated yoga sessions per day, presentations on motivation and nutrition, open Q&A and group discussions with the coaches, and time to break and rest. These sessions will be focused on growing in your practice, learning new techniques, and guiding you through good form and mobility.
We hope so but nothing is guaranteed.
This event is located in the vibrant South Austin area in the SoCo Studios Retail Center. Turn in at the Tropical Smoothie Cafe. The SoCo Studio is located in the second building in the retail center.
There is plenty of on-site, free parking available.
