Yin Yoga For Beginners
SORRY, SESSION 1 OF THIS PROGRAM HAS BEEN CANCELLED.
PLEASE CHECK AGAIN FOR SESSION 2 BEGINNING OCT. 22.
This Yoga practice is a form of yoga derivative of Hatha yoga that applies long holds of simple postures to affect the body’s connective tissue. In this class poses may be held for anywhere from 2-6 minutes, incorporating breathwork to release tension and relax the mind. Within this one hour class we will stretch mindfully using floor based poses and incorporate some non yoga stretches to facilitate the release of tension in the body. Participants should bring a comfortable yoga mat and 2 yoga blocks for support and/or modifications for safe practice.
