The Art of Yin Yoga on demand
(Dunsborough)
Yin Yoga is 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 the 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.
This class can be booked for private groups or one-on-one and can be combined with a Hatha Vinyasa practice if needed.
