Yin yoga is a slow-paced practice filled with longer-held poses that allow us to work deeper that normal into muscles and connective tissues. Typically each asana is held for five minutes or longer, applying moderate stress to tendons, fascia and ligaments to increase joint circulation and improve flexibility. Through deep breath and concentrated effort, this meditative approach to yoga helps students to cultivate an awareness of inner silence and peace.
