what to expect

This style targets the deep connective tissues of the body – the ligaments, joints, bones, and deep fascia to encourage release and flexibility. This class generally runs for an hour and will consist of a series of passive floor poses held for 3- 5 minutes, that mainly work the lower part of the body which are especially rich in connective tissues. Yin yoga improves energy flow and helps provide a boost of energy! Yin yoga is best practiced on ‘cold’ muscles, which is why I recommend this class first thing in the morning or right before bed. Doing cardio or participating in Yang style yoga before taking a Yin class can lead to the muscles stretching a little deeper than we’d like them too. Props are encouraged to modify your practice to your comfort level. If you have yoga blocks, a strap and yoga blanket please have them handy.

Please schedule a free ten minute virtual consultation before signing up for this class so that we may design a class that fits your unique needs! Typically this class is a slowed down and more intentional form of hatha style yoga that allows you to enjoy the gentle rhythm and moving mediation of a flow yoga class as you mindfully move from one pose to the next. This class typically include 45 minutes of asana postures and 15 minutes of pranayama breathing exercises. Props such as straps, blankets, blocks and pillows are encouraged for any needed modifications.

Yogi’s choice. Anything goes in this yoga class. We don’t know what to expect either. If you have any experiments you’d like to request, send us an email and we will try to accommodate your request.

Yoga is for every body, but it’s not one size fits all. It’s up to you to decide what you would like to work on and we will work together to find a sequence that works for your body and goals.
