“In Yin yoga we don’t use the body to get into a pose, we use the pose to get into the body.” Bernie Clarke
This class is an invitation to soften, slow down and listen to your unique anatomy. Yin yoga is a slow paced practice where passive stretches and longer holds are used to access the deep fascia, joints and ligaments whilst dropping muscular effort. On the physiological level Yin works by gently “stressing” the connective tissue of our body to create more space and ease in the joints.
Yin yoga is also a deeply meditative practice where you will be encouraged to cultivate awareness of physical sensations and meet challenges with a compassionate attitude. Instead of pushing or thriving, Yin teaches us to soften, to observe sensations, emotions and thoughts that arise and to train our mind to sit in stillness and discomfort.
