Candace Lites
Candace Lites, born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago, was introduced to yoga in high school so that she could maintain balance and flexibility during the offseason of competitive cheerleading and track and field. No longer a student-athlete, she recognized years ago that yoga is much more than a supplement to competitive sports and training. As such, she decided to deepen her commitment to her yoga practice, which led to her completing 200-hour teacher training in February 2024.
Description
Yin yoga works deeply into our body with passive, longer-held grounding poses, achieved mainly by laying or sitting on your mat. It targets the deepest tissues of the body, our connective tissues, ligaments, joints, bones, the deep fascia networks of the body. Yin yoga works on activating our parasympathetic nervous system which allows for restoration and healing to occur and therefore decreases stress and anxiety. It's wonderful for all levels, soothing music and the beautiful ambiance of candlelight glow create a relaxing space in which to practice.
