When our minds are busy and hectic we often want to just withdraw, not have to "people" any more. Hunched shoulders, brain fog, anxious thoughts...so let's begin your yoga practice slowly.

Poses begin face down (there is the option to do them face up if that feels better for you) then contracted and gradually move to open poses and and inside peaceful mind. Just with stretching and breathing for an hour. 

During this Yin Yoga Practice you will discover

  • An opportunity to go within physically and as you open your muscles allow your mind to peacefully wander within.

  • Poses that open the hips, rib cage and upper chest while stretching the inner and outer thigh, low back, along the spine, hamstrings, calves and shoulders.

  • Variations on the poses presented to work with what is comfortable and to meet yourself where you are.

Your registration is active for 3 days and you can repeat the class as often as you wish during that time.

I took my first Yoga class when I was 13 and have been passionate about it ever since. In teaching dance it was a key aspect to encouraging students to stay loose and flexible and I am constantly suggesting stretching and yoga to my massage clients. Yin Yoga is my go to as a teacher, practitioner and massage therapist. Holding the poses for longer means that the fascia, joints, muscles, tendons and ligaments have an opportunity to release. Restorative Yoga goes further with comfort and relaxation being key while you breathe, rest and digest. Yoga is not about how the pose looks or how you look in the pose. It's all about how the pose feels, the sensations you are experiencing and the breathe that you focus on as you inhale and exhale. It's also and most importantly about meeting yourself where you are today as you practice. About developing a nurturing relationship with it and allowing your mat to support you. Use your props, bring the floor up to you, allow sensation and stretch but no pain should be happening. In restorative you should be so comfortable that you could fall asleep in the pose. Be kind to you today.
