A 90-min Yin Yoga practice suitable for all bodies and experience levels. This practice is limited to 8 participants and is designed to create awareness of the deeper tissues. Our focus is on the network of fascia that surrounds our bones, ligaments, tendons, and muscles and supports our organs. We move into and out of postures slowly and hold them for 3-5 minutes. Resting in each posture enables us to take stock of what and where we feel sensations, adjust as appropriate, and then relax into stillness in the posture. Breath Coaching is also provided to help focus on specific areas of tension and recover mobility where it has been limited. No two bodies are alike, and, in fact, each body is different, left to right and day to day. This practice ensures a deeper experience for each student - no two bodies will look alike in any posture, and we use props to suit each individual.

The practice is limited to 10 participants.

Yin Yoga is a quiet practice that helps us ease pain and support flexibility and range of motion. There are no standing poses in Yin: we sit, kneel, or lie down to take various positions that will relax the muscles as we place stress on the connective tissues. Fascia, ligaments, and tendons respond, gradually becoming elastic and strong. At the same time, tension, pain, and restrictions are released to help us get up and off the mat with ease and a calm mind.

Looking to rest the body and mind at the same time?

Let this practice support you to a state of deep relaxation while being fully held by props. In this practice we build you up to support an "opening and floating" way of being in the physical body with the use of props such as chairs, bolsters, blocks, straps, blankets, and more blankets. Warm socks are encouraged! The movement in this class is isolated to simply moving props around on the mat to transition your body to land into another cloud of support. Fully held so you can let go. This class will be guided with the use of crystal sound bowls.
