Unwind before the madness of the Christmas season envelops you!

The Winter Solstice can be related to the menstrual cycle's winter, or menstruation phase. This is a time for rest, reflection, and inner work, mirroring the dormancy of winter in nature. It's a time to honor the cyclical nature of life and connect with the body's wisdom.

Unwind after a long day, come to your mat, get grounded and walk away feeling both nourished and free. This class is accessible for all levels. It is a mixture of hatha and vinyasa from Rise up and Dance above Shoreline Bray on the southern cross.

A Yin Yoga class usually consists of a series of long-held, passive floor poses that mainly work the lower part of the body—the hips, pelvis, inner thighs, lower spine. These areas are especially rich in connective tissues. The poses are held for up to five minutes, sometimes longer. This intimate practice of yoga requires students to be ready to get intimate with the self, with feelings, sensations, and emotions, something of which I have noticed can be easy to avoid in a fast paced yang yoga practice. Yin yoga is often used in programs that deal with addictions, eating disorders, anxiety and deep pain or trauma. It won’t be easy or lazy, just slow, thoughtful, and grounding. .
