"You are the choices you make. Make good choices"
When we are kind to ourselves, the mind relaxes, then the body relaxes and naturally becomes more flexible, healthy and strong. Then the mind becomes even more calm and the virtuous circle continues.
The work is to extend this approach from our mat to our daily life, being kind and content where we are in every aspect of our life.

Yin Yoga

While “yang” yoga focuses on your muscles, yin yoga targets your deep connective tissues, like your fascia, ligaments, joints, and bones. It’s slower and more meditative, giving you space to turn inward and tune into both your mind and the physical sensations of your body. Because you’re holding poses for a longer period of time than you would in other traditional types of yoga, yin yoga helps you stretch and lengthen those rarely-used tissues while also teaching you how to breathe through discomfort and sit with your thoughts.
The practice of yin yoga is based on ancient Chinese philosophies and Taoist principles which believe there are pathways of Qi (energy) that run through our bodies. By stretching and deepening into poses, we’re opening up any blockages and releasing that energy to flow freely.
Yin / Yang Yoga
Maximum of 3 in a class!
Yin & Yang Yoga blends two styles of yoga into one practice. Our Yin & Yang yoga class will start with Yin yoga to calm the mind and to work on the joints before moving into a faster paced Yang sequencing to warm the muscles, incorporating power, strength and stability. Yin Yoga is a slower (cooling) practice where poses are passively held for longer, working on the deep, dense (Yin) connective tissues and joints in the body. Yang Yoga, in contrast, refers to a more active (warming) practice working on the (Yang) muscles and blood flow, building strength, stamina and flexibility. Yang styles of yoga are those with rhythm and repetition like Vinyasa Flow.
