Suitable for almost all students. Yin Yoga is a quiet, thoughtful practice that involves supporting the body with props and relaxing into poses for longer periods of time (generally 3-5 mins). This practice targets the connective tissues, bones and joints through the stillness of long held postures. Based on Traditional Chinese Medicine, it can help increase or restore mobility, provides space to turn inwards and activates the parasympathetic (rest/relax) nervous system.

While initially this style of yoga can seem passive or not challenging enough, you will soon feel the deep mental and physical “stretch” that a Yin practice can provide. This quiet, meditative style of yoga is the perfect compliment to the more dynamic and muscular (yang) styles of yoga that focus on the lengthening and contracting of our muscles.

This class incorporates yin yoga, pranayama, myofascial release and meditation. Occasionally, short gentle “yang” style flows are incorporated to to bring balance to the practice. Most yin yoga poses are seated or laying down, non-weight bearing and suitable for almost every fitness level. Yin Yoga is a functional form of yoga, that focuses on how each pose feels to each student, there is really no right or wrong way to hold a pose. All people are welcome no matter their diverse level of yoga experience, body type, age, race, disability, gender identify, race, sexual orientation or religion/belief system.
