This class is for everyone. Yin is a slow, meditative practice done on cool bones. This practice is based on three principles called Tattvas.
1. Come to the appropriate depth or edge for you,
2. Settle into a sweet spot, and resolve to stay,
3. Let go, be patient, let time flow.
Yin targets the deepest fascia connective tissue in and around muscles, ligaments and tendons. It is based on the Taoist tradition. Shapes (postures) are held for periods of time beginning with a three minute hold.
"Yin is not supposed to be comfortable and is practiced to the edge of uncomfortable/comfortable." - Bernie Clark. Yin focus is less muscle energy, less movement.

Self Awakening Yoga is an expansion of consciousness through our body's own wisdom.
This practice uses interesting, fun ways of unwinding, tapping, rolling, and thumping to mention a few. It is a practice of awakening prana, the life force, in all of us to bring awareness to and unlock any old and unserving patterns.
It's a practice of inquiry, noticing how we arrive to and through shapes. We query why I am moving this way? What do I feel? Where do I feel it?
It is thru the ASIS principle (awareness if sensation thru internal scanning) that we awaken to ways of change and begin new patterns of healing. We are encouraged to listen to the body as the wisdom unlocks thru the flow of prana, bringing a sense of balance and understanding of our relationship with the breath.
