Yin yoga is a style of yoga where stretches are held for a number of minutes with the intention of creating mild-medium sensation in a target area of the body. The steady stress placed on the target area moves deeper into the muscle tissue, fascia and connective tissue. Brief rests are held in-between poses in order to allow circulation, regeneration and rejuvenation into joints and tissue, in which greater resiliency, mobility and stability are created. This exercise is also one for the mind – focus is maintained in each particular area of the body to follow the sensation and make sure it stays healthy, while maintaining ease in the rest of the body. Wear comfortable clothing to stay warm because the resting heart rate can decrease in longer held poses.
Fees: First class is $5! $18 drop in; $150 for a 10 class pass. Payment can be made on site (cash, check or card); no need for pre-registration.
