Yin Yoga Evening

Respect the Body and the Mind

7.30pm - 9pm on Friday 10th April 2020

You are more than welcome to join us in this online world for our Yin Yoga class.

The workshop 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, but this time with more of a challenge on the body with longer holds.

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 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 7.25pm so we can start on time.

Payment for the session is on a donation basis, on what you can afford at this time as we are all in differing circumstances right now. No judgement.

Payment methods will be via online bank transfer or Paypal.

We all need some time out right now more than ever.

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!
