DESCRIPTION

Injury Prevention, Joint Health, Restorative Energy. The essence of Yin yoga is surrender. All our yin style classes invite you to stretch into grounding shapes on your mat. Students melt into postures for an extended period of time (sometimes with the help of a prop), helping to calm the nervous system and restore energy. Singing bowls will be played during this class, which help to guide the mind and body into a state of relaxation. The singing bowls also help to stimulate our alpha and theta brain waves, known to be associated with deep, meditative, and peaceful states that are highly conducive to healing.
