Yin Yoga – Yin Yoga is a style of yoga that targets the connective tissue to release long held tension and toxins. Unlike other styles of yoga that focus on muscle tissue, Yin Yoga focuses on the ligaments and tendons that connect the muscles to bone and bone to bone to encourage deeper opening and space in the joints. It is based on the ancient principles of Chinese medicine, acupuncture and meridian theory. The intention of Yin Yoga is to open the energy lines of the body to stimulate and detoxify the liver, spleen, bladder and other organs through a series of complimentary postures. The mudras, or poses are held passively for longer periods of time than other styles of yoga (usually 3-5 minutes) in order to safely and gently open the body, mind and energetic channels. Yin Yoga is an essential complement to any dynamic physical regimen or a perfect way to begin on a path towards health and wellness. All of the asana or poses are within the ranges of motion of most beginners and will noticeably enhance their movement in daily life.
