Yin yoga consists of a series of long-held, passive floor poses that mainly work the lower part of the body - the hips, pelvis, inner thighs, lower spine. These areas are especially rich in connective tissues. The poses are held for up to five minutes, sometimes longer. Yin yoga is almost entirely passive. During the poses muscles are relaxed to avoid muscle spasm.
Gently challenging connective tissues by holding a yin pose for time, the body will respond by opening, lengthening.
Everyone from the athletic to those with limited mobility will benefit from Yin Yoga practice. Welcome to yoga’s quiet side!
Wearing comfortable layers is recommended.
