Inside Flow
Ciao! Welcome to our Inside Flow community in Italy
Experience the unity of movement, breath, heart and music
Practised and founded by Young Ho Kim
Inside Flow is an evolution of Vinyasa Yoga, a powerful moving meditation.
Your movement is guided by your breath, synchronised to the music, and each movement is synchronised with the inhalation and exhalation.
Each Class is designed to flow with eclectic modern music, with the grand finale of the class being a perfectly sequenced flow to a special song. Based on the yogic philosophy SPANDA – the pulsation of nature – we embody the Spanda with our breath and our movement.
The class starts and you are in the Flow, you transition and move from one asana to another.
The aim is to harmonise body and mind and to achieve a meditative state through the combination of music, breath and movement.
Experience the unity of breath, movement and music.
Upcoming Workshop

“It’s all about Balance” – Vinyasa Alignment for Stability & Strength
Strength and flexibility, lightness and stability – both in the yoga practice and in life we often strive for balance between two polarities – a “sweet spot” (or healthy middle). In this vinyasa alignment workshop, we look at the interplay between these apparently opposing qualities, play with balance on the mat and observe what comes up when things get wobbly. This workshop is designed to give you a solid foundation in alignment so that you can flow through your vinyasa or Inside Flow practice with more confidence. In this way, you practice finding inner and outer balance – both on and off the mat.

“It’s all about Balance” – Inside Flow Workshop
In this workshop, we continue to play with the concept of balance in Inside Flow. In this workshop, Ami combines her years of dance experience with her passion for yoga to guide you through creative, flowing sequences to a playlist of modern music. By building up a sequence of yoga asanas bit by bit, you will dive into a state of flow – directing your gaze from the outside inward and deepening the connection to yourself.
Together, we will laugh, sweat, and feel all the feels – Inside Flow is challenging, but all the more rewarding for it.
Sunday 13 October, 10.30 – 12.30
“Open Your Heart” Alignment for Feel-Good Backbends
Backbends, or heart-openers, are a favourite amongst many yogis and yoginis. Whether in a flow or static hold, opening up the front side of the body not only has a positive effect on your posture but your mood too. And when you find the optimal alignment for your own body (what feels good, rather than looks “good” 😉), they can create a unique feeling of freedom and also give you space to open up to yourself and others. In this workshop, we will look at the anatomy of the spine and the alignment of different back-bending You’ll learn how to prepare your body for backbends and cultivate strength and flexibility where you need it – so that you can feel into that open heart, not just on but off the mat too ❤️
Sunday 13 October 14.00 – 16.00

“Open Your Heart” Inside Flow (Inside Flow to Deep Stretch)
In this Inside Flow workshop, you’ll take all that openness into your flow!
Your body, your breath, and your movements become intertwined with no beginning and no end. By building up a sequence of yoga asanas bit by bit, you will dive into a state of flow – directing your gaze from the outside inward and deepening the connection to yourself. We then use the warmth built-up in the body to open up even further and create space in the body and mind.
For both Inside Flow fans and Inside Flow newbies (general yoga knowledge is important, however).

Transportation to the UW Rome Center
Train
- The regional train from Fiumicino airport to Stazione Trastevere (7 stops) runs from 5:57 am to 11:27 pm daily, leaving every 15 to 20 minutes and costs €8. You can purchase a ticket in advance at Trenitalia.com or buy one directly at the station adjacent to the airport. (This is NOT the Leonardo Express, which goes directly to Termini station.) From the Trastevere train station, purchase a bus ticket at the newsstand for €1.50 and take the #8 bus in the direction of Venezia to the city center.
Shuttle Bus
- This is the least expensive option from Fiumicino, Rome’s international airport, or Ciampino, a smaller airport for some European connections. Buses run about every 30 minutes and trips take between 45 minutes to 1 hour. Tickets can be purchased online at Sit Bus Shuttle (tickets purchased online cost €6 one way per person; be sure to print the e-ticket and keep it with you) or on board of the bus. The bus stop at Fiumicino Airport is located near Terminal 3, bus stop no. 1 (take right when you go out from the terminal). In Ciampino Airport, the bus stop is located near the exit from the terminal. Once at Termini, purchase a bus ticket on the mycicero app or at the newsstand outside of the station for €1.50 and take the #64 bus for €1.50 to the city center.
Taxi
- You can catch a taxi directly at the airport, but be sure to take an official taxi from the taxi stand and confirm with the driver that the fixed fare will be €50. Surcharges for bags and early/late hours may apply.
Car Service
- The most convenient, but expensive way to get to the airport is to book a car in advance.
Restaurants
Campo de’ Fiori
• Verso Sera (Piazza del Biscione): Great food. The artichokes, cicoria, parmigiana and taralli are a must.
• Emma (Via del Monte della Farina, 28): Fantastic parmigiana, artichoke salad, greens of all sorts. Pizza crust is by the famous Roscioli bakery.
• Ditirambo (Piazza della Cancelleria, 74): Roman food, but better. Amazing eggplant polpetti, cicoria, etc.
• Hosteria Grappolo d’Oro (Piazza della Cancelleria, 80): Great Roman food as well. Excellent veggies and pastas.
• Écru (Via Acciaioli, 13): Mostly vegan, raw, organic. Quite good.
• Esco Sazio (Via dei Banchi Vecchi, 135): Organic juice bar, smoothies, salads, soups. Avocado smoothie is amazing!
Piazza Navona
• Cul de Sac (Piazza di Pasquino, 73): Lentil soup, topik (garbanzo and bean app), artichoke flan, amazing bread, good greens. Extensive wine selection. Always crowded so expect a wait, but it’s worth it.
• Baffetto (Via del Governo Vecchio, 114): Cult following for their pizza. Recommend keeping it simple with the Margarita (but add arugula!). Always a wait.
• Alfredo e Ada (Via dei Banchi Nuovi, 14): No menu (always amazing lasagna)…just a recounting of their daily menu and then a haphazard calculation of your bill on the parchment tablecloth at the end…and will undoubtedly be half of what it should have been for the quantity and quality of the food.
• Navona Notte (Via del Teatro Pace, 44): Great cheap pizza. Pizza only, though. The rest of the menu is hit and miss.
•Vivi Bistro Nice departure from classic Roman dishes.
Ghetto
• Nonna Betta (Via del Portico d’Ottavia, 16): Their zucchini carbonara is still awesome! Made with zucchini instead of pancetta. Amazing artichokes, Jewish style, as well. Reservations advised.
• Bottega Tredici (Via dei Falegnami, 14): Fine dining in a lovely atmosphere. An unusual find in Rome.
Monti
• Trattoria Valentino (Via del Boschetto, 37) The best veggie menagerie in town. Artichoke and roasted radicchio plate is a must. All others as well.
• Al vino Al vino (Via dei Serpenti, 19): Cultish following of their caponata.
Pantheon
• Armando al Pantheon (Salita dei Crescenzi, 31): Traditional Roman fare. Amazing quality and killer fried artichokes and eggplant parmesan. Reservations advised.
Trastevere
• Proloco (Via Goffredo Mameli, 23): Everything is so good, locally sourced. Amazing roasted pumpkin and root vegetable.
•Aromaticus (Via Natale del Grande, 6/7): clean, organic, mostly vegan. Fantastic. https://www.aromaticus-roma.com/
•Bacco in Trastevere (P.za di S. Giovanni della Malva, 14): Southern italian options including fave and cicoria. Fun to do a lot of small plates like their parmigiana, caponata, zucchini, etc. and share.
•Pizzeria Ai Marmi (Viale di Trastevere, 53-59): Best pizza in town.
