Join the Yin Crowd

Yin yoga is a slow-paced style of yoga that focuses on the body’s connective tissues, such as ligaments and fascia, rather than muscles.
It involves holding poses for longer periods, typically 3-5 minutes, allowing gravity and the body’s own weight to create gentle pressure and promote flexibility and relaxation.
Yin yoga postures are floor-based either in seated or lying down poses that have English rather than Sanskrit names.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS OF YIN YOGA
SLOW AND PASSIVE:
Unlike more dynamic styles of yoga like Ashtanga or Vinyasa, Yin yoga is practiced in a slow and passive way, focusing on holding poses rather than following through them.
LONGER HOLDS:
Poses are held for extended periods, typically 3-5 minutes, to allow the connective tissues to be gently stretched and lengthened.
PROP USE:
Props like blankets, blocks and bolsters are often used to support the body and deepen the stretch, allowing for a more comfortable and effective practice.
VARIETY OF POSES:
Poses can include forward bends, hip openers, side bends, and supported heart openers, often incorporating props for deeper stretches.
MEDITATION AND MINDFULNESS:
Yin yoga encourages a meditative state, allowing practitioners to focus on their breath, sensations in the body, and cultivate inner awareness.
FOCUS ON CONNECTIVE TISSUE:
Yin yoga specifically targets the connective tissues, aiming to improve flexibility, range of motion, and promote healing within the body.
