DISCOUNTS AVAILABLE FOR MONDAY DOUBLEDAYS (BACK-TO-BACK VINYASA FLOW & YIN)
In Yin Yoga we move slowly through a series of mostly seated and reclined postures and may stay in each pose for a few minutes. While many Yin classes focus on deep relaxation, this class aims to develop body awareness and body control to improve posture and movement patterns, and to learn how to address and relieve chronic tensions. We will explore sensing and directing energy from a yoga viewpoint with prana (breath/lifeforce) and bandhas (bodylocks), and we will incorporate as well elements from Qigong, Acupressure, and Peak States Therapy into the traditional yoga asana. While the practice is calm and gentle, addressing and releasing tension can feel uncomfortable, and experiences of physical or emotional discomfort are possible during or following practice. Although it does take time to release the many strands and layers of fascia and muscle, and to address all the connected areas, shifts can happen quickly and open up new sensations and perspectives. This class is meant to equip students with tools to take home and empower their self-healing journey, and Teagan will take cues from students' experiences in how classes progress. We may use props like blocks, cushions, and massage balls; please bring a yoga mat, or you may rent or purchase a mat in the shala.
