About this event
Restorative Yin blends two contemplative practices into one class: Yin, a slow, passive style of yoga in which each pose is held for several long minutes to work the body's connective tissue — fascia, ligaments, and the deep tissue surrounding the joints — rather than the muscles; and Restorative, a fully supported style that uses props to hold the body in passive rest, removing effort so the nervous system can settle into deep relaxation. Together, they create a slow, grounding practice that uses props to support the body while creating space to release tension, settle the nervous system, and turn your attention inward. Classes may also weave in breath awareness, yoga Nidra meditation techniques, and sound to deepen the experience of rest and stillness. With plenty of time to settle into each shape, Restorative Yin invites you to soften, listen, and allow the practice to meet you where you are.
