Are you on a fast train? Ready to get off and breathe?
In Yin Yoga, you will enter poses - mostly on the floor - and stay awhile, observing strong sensations, while allowing your breath to help you access deeper layers of dense connective tissue, like ligaments, tendons, and fascia. The long-held, passive poses will help you become more flexible, with juicier joints and better-functioning organs. You might become calmer, and better able to focus: a gift in our world of constant distraction.
Yin Yoga is an excellent complement to other forms of Yoga. Come home to your body in a profound and satisfying way.
