Yin Yoga: Stretch and Release (All Level Beginner's Welcome)
Yin yoga is a practice of long-held, deeply relaxing "stretching" poses that open and energize the "meridians," or energy pathways of the body, restoring youthful joint mobility as you quietly activate and gather your chi, your prana---your life force.Whereas the yoga most people are familiar with appropriates the muscles or yang tissues of the body, yin yoga targets the more interior, supportive structures-the "fascia," literally down to the bone marrow. Yin is every bit as vital as a heating or "yang vinyasa" yoga practice, where one flows from pose to pose, energetically pushing the envelope, concentrating on building muscular strength and stamina. In today's world, Yin Yoga is the soothing balm, the elixir that is so badly needed to help us find balance in our stress-filled, over-scheduled lives. * This class is not for students with joint hyper-mobility issues.
