Yin Yoga
Most forms of yoga today are dynamic, active practices designed to work the muscular “yang” tissues. Yin yoga is a complimentary discipline to a yang practice, working the deeper “yin” tissues of our ligaments, joints and deep fascial networks. Ultimately, increasing our range of motion.
A Yin practice is slow, steady and often stationary. We use pranayama (breathing) techniques to relax the body and mind. Using props, postures are held for several minutes allowing the body to soften gradually while nourishing dense fascia and joints.
Take a break from your daily grind; join us for this quiet, balanced, rejuvenating practice!
