Join Stephen to renew, refresh, and integrate the week behind you by participating in Yin Yoga Practice. Yin yoga is a relatively modern style of yoga that was developed around the late 20th century, primarily through the teachings of Paul Grilley. Since its inception, Yin yoga has expanded, developed, and progressed into its own distinct form of Yoga practice. Philosophically it explores many Ancient Chinese practices such as Taoism and Buddhism. Yin poses are held for longer durations of time and ask the practitioner to find comfortable levels of stress in each pose which in turn helps to target the health and rehabilitation of connective tissue (fascia, ligaments, tendons, etc.). Yin yoga is a complementary practice to more active styles of activity (such as vinyasa yoga, weight lifting, running, etc.) and explores varying styles of meditation and breath work which aim to cultivate more yin-like qualities (stillness, quietude, receptivity, etc.). Please join Stephen each week as we move through a yin sequence in a calming, nurturing, and accepting atmosphere!
