Yin Yoga
Yin is a passive practice, with long-held postures that target the connective tissues: fascia, ligaments, joints and bones. Poses are typically held between 2-6 minutes with time for slow mindful transitions between; postures are done mostly seated or lying on the mat. In Yin the body is supported to allow the muscles to relax and gravity to do the work. Practice invites finding your edge, becoming still, and holding for time. This is an introspective practice of mindful movement and breath. Class is designed around finding your place between effort and ease, moving with attention and intention, and listening to your body. You will work with pranayama, meditation, and yin asana.
Props are encouraged in class and we are happy to share ways to use household items to make bolsters and blocks if needed. This is a lighthearted class where all are welcomed to show up as their authentic selves. A good poem, quote, or story is almost always woven in to class.
Classes are tailored for all levels, including beginners.
See below for ways to get (y)into it.

“The essence of yin is yielding. Yang is about changing the world; Yin accepts the world as it is. Neither is better than the other. There are indeed times when it is appropriate and even necessary to change the world; other times, it is best to just allow things to unfold. Part of the yin practice is learning this yielding.” – Bernie Clark
