YIN YOGA
Reset your system on all levelsThis class is more about releasing stress than getting an exercise workout.
What is Yin Yoga?
Our Yin yoga class which will reset your system on all levels and leave you feeling relaxed and peaceful.
Yin describes a gentle soft approach. This class is more about releasing stress than getting an exercise workout. It’s the opposite to the fire and energy of yang, which drives our Vinyasa classes.
In Yin (restorative) yoga we hold postures for a long periods of time, working with connective tissue to open the body.
The focus is less on alignment and more on finding a stretch that leads to deep release. Though restorative yoga uses traditional seated asanas, students are encouraged to relax into the basic shape rather than perfect alignment.
