Taking Time This Christmas - Yin Yoga Evening

7pm - 9pm on Friday 4th December 2020

You are more than welcome to join us in this online world for our December Yin Yoga class on Zoom in the lead up to Christmas through this weird time of trying to find Christmas cheer amidst another lockdown.

Join us for a beautifully relaxed and chilled out practice on a dark December evening on the lead up to Christmas.

Join us for a beautifully relaxed and chilled out practice on a dark December evening on the lead up to a bright Christmas. Light your room with candles and Christmas decorations and maybe a beautiful tree and a crackling fire. Set up your Yin Yoga nest with cosy blankets and pillows in preparation for some beautiful openers for the body to leave you feeling relaxed and chilled - Yin style! Christmas jumpers, leggings and/or socks are choice of course!

This evening of Yin is an open level - catering for any level of ability/experience.

If you have any underlying injuries or medical concerns - contact Tanya on 07879415711 to clarify if safe for you to practice.

☺️ The poses will have gentle and stronger variations to enable to be challenged on your own personal level.

I will be aiming to bring you to a place of relaxation and total chill out.

The intention is to help reduce the stress levels through the link with the physical body - to open the body allows you to open and soften the mind.

More than one person signed up for the workshop can be in your room when you link in, so don’t feel that everyone has to be in separate rooms for this - unless you really need to isolate further ☺️

✳️ Make sure you have a device with the Zoom Cloud Meeting app downloaded to be able to see and hear each other.

☯️ Please arrive in the waiting room by 6.55pm so we can start on time. Access won’t be permitted after 7pm as this will disrupt the session.

Investment - £14, or if you sign up before the end of Friday 27th November - £13 early bird discounted price.

Interested?

✳️ Simply click on the sign up button to be taken to the Workshop sign up.

If you have never booked with us before, you will need to set up an account with our booking software Mindbody when you follow the link through to book and pay.

☯️ You will receive an email from Tanya with the Zoom link and password by 6.30pm on the day of the workshop to provide you with the sign in details. Please be sure to be in the waiting room by 6.55pm at the latest as entry will not be permitted once we start at 7pm due to the disruption this would cause to those already resting in Savasana pose.

If you have never attended TDR Academy before, Tanya will send you our health forms to complete and return by email prior to attendance with any of our sessions (a requirement for our professional practice).

You can also add yourself to our mailing list of all news about our classes online and other updates, by subscribing to the TDR Academy Newsletter. Use the sign up form at the bottom of any page of our website to be automatically added.

❤️ Please feel free to share this to your family and friends.

We all need some time out right now more than ever due to such uncertainty in the world around us.

A little more about Yin Yoga (if you don’t know anything about it):

The practice of Yin Yoga is to stress the tissues of the body that we don’t usually access in the more energetic Yang style Yoga practices, such as the connective tissues, ligaments, tendons and bones. It can be to slow down, soften, relax and be mindful, to gain experience of the energy body and to become acquainted with our thought patterns. Ultimately it is to enhance our self awareness, tune our insight and access our own inner wisdom. Yin is about the feeling and involves “unhurried postures unstained by striving” (Sarah Powers).

To practice Yin is to bring forth the values of softening, patience, kindness, compassion, acceptance, surrendering and non striving. It will help people to feel more in a world that is so disconnected. On a physical level, we access and affect connective tissues that we don’t access in our yang practices. The focus on function and feeling rather than on aesthetics, will result in a more positive outcome for students. The poses and stretch sensations can be quite impactful and energetic despite seeking stillness through the longer holds. The time out to meditate and spend time with yourself is invaluable in today’s busy world.

Hope to see you later!
