What is Yin Yoga?
Yin Yoga is a slow-paced, floor-based practice. It targets the connective tissues, such as the ligaments, bones, and even the joints of the body that normally are not exercised very much in a more active style of asana practice.
Yin yoga is a quiet contemplative practice that works deeply into our body with passive, longer-held poses. It also offers introspection and emotional and mental benefits.
Our framework is based on functional and accessible practices with elements of yoga therapy and a focus on spine safety. Yoga therapy is a whole-body approach to better health by using the tools of yoga to meet specific physical, mental and emotional needs and goals. A spine-safe approach ensures that the spine gets the movement it needs to stay healthy and modifying postures that might be unsafe or injurious for some. A functional approach accommodates skeletal variations and focuses on accessible postures for all.
Through our inclusive and accessible classes, we hold space for students in their entirety and allow them to nurture and heal themselves. Learning to work WITH our unique bodies and modifying our practice to celebrate our uniqueness is what we are all about.
Our practice should be alive and adaptable to our needs as we go through the seasons of our lives. Do not become fixated on mastering the posture, it is meant to be therapeutic, not to challenge your pride.
