Yin Yoga Class

Eve from Onehunga

Have you tried Yin Yoga before? 🌸

Yin Yoga:
*Slow-paced yoga style where poses are held for longer durations, typically 3 to 5 minutes or more.
*Targets connective tissues, such as ligaments, tendons, and fascia, rather than muscles.
*Emphasizes relaxation and surrendering into each pose, often practiced with mindfulness and deep breathing.

Benefits of Practicing Yin Yoga:
*Improved Flexibility: Holding poses for longer periods allows for deep stretching, enhancing flexibility over time.
*Stress Relief: Yin yoga's emphasis on relaxation and mindfulness can help reduce stress and promote mental clarity.
*Joint Health: Gentle, sustained stretches target the joints, promoting mobility and potentially reducing the risk of injury and joint stiffness.
