Yin – the opposing energy of yang – is a slow-moving, grounded practice where we hold each posture for around 3-5 minutes. Intended to deepen the flexibility and elasticity of connective tissues like fascia, Yin Yoga is a complementary practice to the muscle- and blood-focused approaches of most other styles of yoga. Practiced consistently, Yin Yoga may offer increased mobility to joints.
Additionally, Yin Yoga is a very slow and calming yoga practice. Very suitable when you feel depleted of energy, need to restore or are looking to find inner stillness. Yin Yoga makes use of Chinese medicine as it actives meridian lines through the body, and in turn has a positive effect on internal organs and overall health.
