This style of yoga targets the connective tissues—such as fascia, ligaments, tendons, and bones—primarily from the belly button to the knees, although upper body areas may also be included. Yin Yoga focuses on the area from the navel to the knees—key yin regions—because the hips and lower back tend to tighten with age. While the practice can benefit all joints, the hips and spine are naturally prioritized. Yin Yoga consists mostly of passive, static poses performed on the mat and held for 1–5 minutes. After finding your edge in each pose, you allow gravity to take over, encouraging deep release and stillness. These longer holds create space for meditation and mental stillness, and the practice ends with a seamless transition into Savasana, the final relaxation pose.
It’s essential to honor your body—modify or skip poses as needed during class, and always follow any guidance or restrictions provided by your physician.

Benefits of Yin Yoga include:
Improved range of motion and joint mobility
A calmer mind and nervous system
Reduced stress and anxiety
Who should avoid or be cautious: osteoporosis, or hyper mobility/ joint injury. Persons pregnant should attend a prenatal yin yoga class.

Important Guidelines:
*Do workouts or strenuous activities before, not after, Yin Yoga.
*Allow at least 2–3 hours of rest after your Yin practice before engaging in other physical activities (this may vary from person to person).
*Wait 12–24 hours before practicing Yin Yoga again to give your tissues adequate recovery time.
