Start your 2021 on the right foot with this 2 hour Yin workshop designed for those who are Yin Lovers & those completely new to the practice but wanting to give it a try.

Yin is a perfect balance for those who enjoy more Yang like physical activity like boxing & martial arts. Yin focuses on the connective tissue, fascia & joints & bones. In Yin we 'switch off' our muscles & our brains for a more inward reflection & healing approach. It is said that Yin brings fluid & blood back into places in our body that need it & allows for freer movement. By gently compressing & stretching the meridians, muscles, ligaments & body structure we control & 'wake up' our consciousness to these areas & gain more body & self awareness.

Poses are typically held for extended periods of time & we are encouraged to find stillness in our bodies & in our minds, Yin has strong links with traditional Chinese Medicine & works with meridian energy pathways & prana to kick start energy flow throughout the body & the main organs.

Yin is a slower, quieter, inward & holistic style of Yoga. Our lives are often times very Yang. Yang is the active, masculine, daytime, hot, movement go-go-go we have in our everyday lives, Yang needs a subtle, cool, reflective, darker balance so we can really benefit from balance.

This workshop includes grounding, mindfulness, pranayama (breath control) and meditation during Savasana along with plenty of juicy Yin stretching.
