Yin Yoga

The focus in Yin Yoga is to deepen and direct the postures to target the connective tissues (fascia, ligaments, joints) and tendons that are less frequently exercised. Yin serves as a compliment to the Yang style of yoga, which is more dynamic and muscle focused (Traditional “Yoga”). Yin is slower and more meditative, giving you space to turn inward and tune into both your mind and the physical sensations of your body. Poses are held
longer (2-3 minutes or sometimes less) than traditional poses, to stretch and strengthen those rarely used tissues while teaching you to breathe through discomfort and sit with your thoughts.
