About This Class
In Yin yoga, the emphasis shifts beyond the muscles to the body’s deeper and more plastic tissues. We extend the length of time mostly in seated or supine positions on the mat. The longer held Yin poses are designed to target the connective tissues, including ligaments, joints and fascia. The practice of Yin yoga enhances the vital energy flow to the internal organs, instills serenity in both mind and body, diminishes stress and anxiety and is complementary to the Yang style of yoga, other sports and strength training.
