YIN YOGA
Compared with more familiar “yang” practices, (i.e. more active practices such as hatha, flow, and power-style classes, which typically focus on dynamic movement of both breath and body), yin classes have a much slower pace. Yin postures are primarily passive in nature and held anywhere from one minute to well over five minutes in order to target the body’s deep connective tissues, rather than muscle groups. These deep connective tissues, (fascia, tendons and ligaments), inherently resist changes from dynamic physical exertion, however, lose elasticity if underused and as a natural byproduct of aging. Yin yoga targets the deep tissues by slowly loading the various types of connective tissues with body weight and maintaining long static poses. The benefits include increased range of motion and more ease with which to enjoy the daily tasks of life. (75 minutes)
