NEW! Yin Yoga

A Yin Yoga class targets the deep and more plastic connective tissues of the body (tendons, ligaments and fascia). Because these tissues are less elastic the poses are held for extended periods of time usually three to five minutes this allows for a safe and slow release. This practice is great for reduction of stress and tension, as well as a beautiful balance for anyone who is very involved in other aspects of physical fitness and can become very tight and limited. This will create space and increase range of motion throughout your body. All levels welcome.
