flowspace

We built out our first flowspace in 2008, making props and supporting community, hosting guests artists and teachers, and inspiring the creation of other such spaces in the US and beyond.

In 2014, we moved to a new space, building it out over the span of 3 years. In addition to the flowtoys office & production rooms, flowspace 2.0 has evolved to comprise a stunning movement studio, our 3D-printing lab, a fabrication hub housing several other makers, including a lasercutting & CNC service, and a soon-to-be flow arts & juggling retail shop.

That's our iconic movement and media studio in the photo :) We really wanted to "make the warehouse disappear" and Sean and Prisna designed the studio to hide every beam and rafter, while providing concealed and diffused lighting throughout the space.

If you’re in the San Francisco Bay Area, feel free to contact us for a visit, or attend one of our community events.

WEDNESDAY FLOWJAMS

Every Wednesday evening, we host a community jam from 6-9pm.

We put out loads of sample flowtoys for all to play with, and it's a chance to meet and hang out with and learn from our local flow & juggling community.


Some people come to the flowtoys jam simply to practice in front of our epic mirrors, be around other people without engaging much. That’s totally ok and healthier than being alone. Maybe it takes them a few times before they step outside their comfort zone and talk to someone. That’s great🌟


Others come to try out the dozens of sample toys we put out. When else would you get to play with so many amazing toys as adults? In an environment that’s inspiring and welcoming. Where beginners through advanced practitioners come together as equals and no one judges anyone’s skill level, and most people are happy to teach if you wish to learn.


Flowtoys founders Sean and Prisna met through a community flow jam in the late 1990s, and we’ve hosted jams ever since with the faith that creating the crucible brings people together and good things come out of it. 

WORKSHOPS & RETREATS

Weekday workshops, weekend intensives, seminars such as Shape Summit, and prop-specific retreats like Club Congress, Stick Together and Poi Parliament happen at the flowspace.


We also host multi-week workshops series for beginner poi, rope dart, contact staff, dragon staff, juggling and more.

Learn from some of the world’s best instructors in a focused and inspiring environment designed specifically for our artform.

SPACE TO CREATE & EXPLORE IDEAS

Video projects & photoshoots, LED prop art sculpture sessions, training & rehearsal space, projection mapping experiments, laser-cutting, CNC fabrication, 3D-printing lab, art & maker spaces.

The flowspace was designed by makers and do-ers. It is a lab, where cutting edge creation happens.
