AUTHENTIC FLOW TRIBE
WHERE THE INFINITE BECOMES INTIMATE
Embodied education since 2009 · Somatics through a non-dual lens · 27K+ community · Trauma-aware · Radically inclusive · Come as you are
Authentic Flow Tribe is an embodied yoga & somatics school and community, born 2009.
Somatic practice through a non-dual lens: We meet the body, and through it, reality. Together.
Teacher trainings, immersions, retreats, and workshops for people who want to move, feel, and teach from the body.
Ways to practice with us
Where practice becomes transmission
For over fifteen years, Authentic Flow Tribe has been a home for embodied practice, long before "somatics" was a trend. We practice healing as a collective act: through sound, movement, presence, and shared responsibility.
This is where Satu's life work lives, the methods, the trainings, and the tribe that carries them. Whether you're here to deepen your own practice or to become a teacher, you start here.

How we hold the space
Come as you are, not the polished version. The real one.
What holds us together is the practice
There's nothing to perform and nothing to prove, just a shared practice, and people who keep showing up for it, from all over the world.
There's room for all of it.
Pleasure and grief, restlessness and rest. You don't have to leave any of it at the door.
We hold it with care.
Trauma-aware, decolonial, non-extractive. We don't fix, and we don't rush. We meet what's here, together. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Meet Satu
Satu Tuomela founded Authentic Flow Tribe in 2009 and has been its lead teacher trainer ever since. She's been teaching for close to thirty years, with more than 13,000 hours in the room, and she created each of the methods you'll find here, Authentic Flow®, Embodied Yin®, and Shake the Dust®.
Her path runs from ballet and contemporary dance into somatics, non-dual Tantra, and Body-Mind Centering, which she still studies today under Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen. People know her for a rare kind of transmission: intuitive, a little otherworldly, carried as much through her harmonium and voice as through her words. A certified E-RYT 500 and Embodied Flow™ senior teacher, she's taught on five continents and still practices daily.
Meeting the body.
Meeting reality.
Together.
Wherever you are on the path, there's a way in. Start where you are.
Our home in Stockholm
The Feels is where the practice takes up space, our studio in Hammarby Sjöstad, alive with movement, sound, and voice. Weekly classes, workshops, trainings, seasonal gatherings, and Shake the Dust sessions that regularly pack the floor. If you're in Stockholm, come move with us in person.
