Yin Yoga: Winter Class

A 60-Minute Class for Adults

Join Michelle James for five Yin Yoga practices. A Yin practice is slower-paced, mainly floor-based, and the postures are held for longer periods of time, inviting stillness of body and mind, and gently stimulating the connective tissue (tendons, ligaments, fascia). This encourages increased space and flexibility in the body and mind. By allowing gravity to do the work we are able to approach the edge of sensation while cultivating kindness and curiosity through a non-striving approach. Each of the five seasons correlates to an element and yin/yang meridians.

This 60-minute practice focuses on the season of Winter, targeting the kidney and bladder meridians which support the removal of waste.
Element - Water
