What a welcoming studio! I travel for work and have been to many studios across the country and this one tops them all. The instructors learned my name the first time I went and class was hot but not too hot (perfect middle ground between working up a sweat but not passing out). I came here on a 2 week intro package and was skeptical it would live up to its 5 star rating, but it deserves them all. Thank you Flux!
Flux is a super cozy and fun studio with warm, passionate instructors teaching in a range of styles. I deeply appreciate how Flux offers accessible options to the community like their free Saturday class, BIPOC scholarship, and work-trade. I feel valued and cared for at this studio, and able to advance my practice. Also, the natural light and sunset views are exceptional, I highly recommend going to a class around that time!
Top rate yoga studio in bham. Clean, caring, friendly, non-judgemental space with skilled, compassionate teachers. 10/10 recommend.
Flux is incredible! Melissa and her team helped rekindle and reshape yoga in my life. I was defiantly non-hot yoga before this, but there are some really good options with Flux (though still warm). The studio is beautiful in so many ways and couldn’t be happier. I have tried most of the instructors and there is some good variety and something for everyone here. Thank you so much Team Flux!
Flux Power Yoga is First Rate. They offer an exceptional variety of classes coupled with dedicated and knowledgeable instructors with welcoming and helpful attitudes in an always clean studio setting. It doesn’t get much better!
I am so grateful to have found this fabulous hot yoga studio in downtown Fairhaven! I've taken several classes so far and enjoyed them all. Love, love, love the cold lavender forehead towel at the conclusion of class ♥️
And others agree. They just won The Best of the Northwest!

FLUX yoga is my body/soul haven after I became a member for two months now. All the instructors are as Warm and friendly as the temperature inside of the studio. I go there almost everyday to begin my day with positive energy.
I've been going here for years and absolutely love the atmosphere and teachers. There are classes for everyone and the times work well with my schedule. They also offer great retreats and special events throughout the year. Love it. ♥️🧘♀️
I absolutely LOVED the Power Yoga class today! Kate LaSpina was a fantastic teacher with a soothing voice. Will definitely be going back!!
Flux has been my safe haven over the last two years. I have had to honor to learn from the kindest most supportive teachers. I feel nothing but safety and love while moving through my flow in class. Thank you Mellisa and Cassidy for creating such a lovely nurturing space for our community!!
I have been taking Yoga classes at Flux for over 3 years and am absolutely hooked! I love all the instructors, everyone offers a different flow and there are several styles to choose from! Power Yoga, Slow Flow but also Yin! I am very active and need to practice Yoga at least twice a week to keep my muscles strong and flexible! Flux Power Yoga is a gem! I am very happy I have found this place!
Best yoga community of all time. I have been a student at Flux for quite some time. The space is absolutely beautiful which adds so much to my practice. The instructors are knowledgeable and creative! The culture is supportive and relaxed- I love that the instructors hold space for each student to come as they are. I cannot recommend this studio enough!

Warrior of the Week: Julie Batten
Tell us a little bit about yourself.
I’m a 66 year old retired educator of 40 years. I continue to speak up and show up for children and public education as well as issues around social justice. I spent most of my life feeling ashamed of my body. I was either too thin or too curvy. I would hide myself under loose clothing and body minimizing underwear (these garments need to disappear). I always have had my own unique style, and I know how to strut it, but I wasn’t true to who I am.
How long have you been practicing at Flux Power Yoga? How did you know this was your place?
Melissa entered my life in 2013 as a friend and mentor. I joined Flux in 2018. I knew it was my place because of the teachers, the studio/heat, the other people who ignite the Flux community with their kindness, generosity, humor and love.
How has your practice evolved and /or what benefits have you gotten in your practice and in your life?
I didn’t start seriously practicing yoga (or any other healthy routine) until I was 64. The changes that I have noticed in my body, mind and my life have been profound. I have never felt stronger or more powerful. I celebrate the skin I’m in. I realize that my body is beautiful, a miracle…”I should have worshipped her sooner.” I walk taller, I don’t shrink away or hide my curves. I’ve never felt more vulnerable and courageous at the same time.
Favorite pose and why?
Asking me my favorite pose reminds me of when my students would ask what my favorite color was. I would always answer…all the colors! How could I live in a world without greens or blues or browns. As my friend Ben Mann says, “There are some poses that aren’t ready for me yet.” That’s how I feel. I do know that through practice the poses always feel different to me, whether I push through, or when I surrender, my power grows.
Any advice for new yogis?
My advice, SHOW UP. Paying attention to ourselves and others is the greatest act of love there is. Give yourself grace. I spent a lot of time in Child’s Pose and that’s where I return when needed. Taking part in the 40 day challenge also helped me to become more consistent in my practice. Know that you are a wonder.
