This class focuses on stillness and deepening into a pose to
allow the muscles to relax and the soft tissues to open. Most poses
are seated and held between 3 to 5 minutes to allow the body to
soften. Yin Yoga is rooted in the Taoist belief that energy (aka
“chi”) runs through the various meridians housed in our connective
tissues and the practice helps release any blockages to allow the
energy to flow freely. Props are sometimes used to support the
body, allowing gentle relaxation with gravity, rather than against
it. Pranayama and yoga nidra/meditation is incorporated to promote
deep relaxation. Open to all levels and beginners are
welcome.
