Present Practice is rooted in the belief that yoga is more than movement — it is a path inward and forward. Formerly Yoga hŌM Austin, our studio has expanded into a new home and a new name, uniting everything we offer under one global community. Located in downtown Austin, our space is a sanctuary for self-discovery, personal growth, and connection. Inspired by the places we travel together — from Morocco and Bhutan to Bali — the studio is designed to create a sense of arrival and belonging. Handcrafted architectural details, warm natural materials, and thoughtful transitions throughout the space invite you to slow down, arrive fully, and feel at home. A welcoming café and curated retail shop encourage gathering before and after class, reinforcing that community is at the heart of everything we do. We offer a wide range of practices, including heated and non-heated vinyasa, power vinyasa, yin, kundalini, breathwork & meditation, yoga foundations, hot mat Pilates, and strength-based sculpt classes. Every class begins with breath and intention and ends with deep rest — creating a container for presence, reflection, and reconnection with your innermost Self. Beyond the studio, Present Practice is a global community. Through immersive retreats and transformational teacher trainings around the world, we support students in deepening their practice, embodying the wisdom of yoga off the mat, and living with greater intention. Whether you’re stepping into yoga for the first time or continuing a lifelong practice, you’re invited to return — again and again — to what matters most. Welcome home.
