ABOUT YIN YOGA

 

Yin Yoga can be practiced by everybody and every body! It is a slow style of yoga, where we hold the positions from 2- 5 minutes.

The goal is to give body and mind a deep and nourishing work out.

 

Yin Yoga has many physical and mental benefits:

• The longer we stay in a position, the deeper we work into the tissue

• It is a training for our fascia. The connective tissue, as well as ligaments and tendons is stretched and nurtured.

• We stretch and activate the meridians of our body, thereby releasing blocks and activating fresh energy flow in our body.

• We balance our emotions, since each meridian is connected to a different organ and each organ is connected to a emotion.

• Through the slow practice we calm our mind: Yin Yoga is like a meditation with the body.

​

ABOUT THE INTRODUCTION WORKSHOP

​

With this Yin Yoga Introduction Workshop I like to get you a first understanding and feeling of Yin Yoga. Without much theory we dive into the experience of a deeply balancing Yin Yoga practice.

What we learn during the workshop:

• We learn how every body is different concerning our bones, and body structure, so we learn to accept our natural limits

• How to alter every position according to our needs with the help of props: bolsters, blocks and belt

• How staying inside a pose for a long time activates the feeling of embodiment, being present here and now in our body

• How we activate our energy flow, how we balance our nervous system and find a deep state of relaxation
