Yin/Restorative 6 week program

Service Description

Yin/Restorative In this 90 minute class we will practice a combination of Yin postures for the first part of class leading us into some beautiful and relaxing restorative postures to finish our practise. Known as the quiet practice, Yin Yoga targets the connective tissues of the hips, pelvis and lower spine. Yin postures are held for three to five minutes which gives the body an opportunity to open and release tension from deeper tissues. This form of yoga is a great complement to more dynamic and active practices, and is a great aid for learning to sit in meditation. The practice works with our energy body, clearing blockages in nadis (meridians) and increasing the flow of prana or chi, improving the health of our organs as well as increasing our energy and promoting a general sense of wellbeing. Yin Yoga is suitable for most levels of students. Restorative yoga is a style of yoga that encourages physical, mental, and emotional relaxation. Appropriate for all levels, restorative yoga is practiced at a slow pace, focusing on long holds, stillness, and deep breathing. This yoga style is known for its ability to activate the parasympathetic nervous system . This is the “rest and digest” part of your nervous system that helps keep basic functions working as they should. *** Dates: April 22,29,May 6,13,27 & June 3***
