LOCATION:
DESCRIPTION: Yin is a slow-paced style of yoga where floor-based postures are held for extended periods, typically between 5 to 10 minutes.

Unlike dynamic movement classes that target the muscular system, Yin specifically targets the body's dense connective tissues: the fascia, ligaments, and joint capsules. To successfully isolate these deeper tissues, the surrounding muscles must be completely relaxed. Gravity and time are used to apply a moderate, sustained physical stress to these areas to help improve joint mobility and tissue hydration.

The reality of the practice:

Mechanics: You will use props to support your frame so your muscles are able to disengage.

The Challenge: While you are physically supported, applying sustained tension to connective tissue creates a high level of physical sensation.

Focus: The primary difficulty of Yin is maintaining absolute physical and mental stillness for minutes at a time while under this tension.

Because you are not generating muscular heat, please bring thick socks and warm layers.
