LIVE ON ZOOM
Yin yoga is a deep, meditative style of yoga focused on relaxation, breath and awareness. Yin yoga targets your deep connective tissues, like your fascia, ligaments, joints, and bones, and is a great complimentary practice to Yang styles of yoga and other physical exercises. As much as the body needs to exert itself physically, it also needs to relax in more restorative or still poses, as found in Yin yoga. The gentle slowness of Yin yoga provides a counterbalance to our fast-paced world, creating space in the body and increasing flexibility.
It’s slow and meditative, giving you space to turn inward and tune into both your mind and the physical sensations of your body.
All levels, you do not need previous experience with Yin yoga to join.
Drop-in class: 12 Euro per session

RECOMMENDED PREPARATIONS FOR THE CLASS
Dress warmly
Yin yoga can be a cooling practice, and it is recommended to dress comfortably in warm layers so that you can adjust the temperature when needed. Also nice to wear warm socks.
Quiet space
Find a quiet, cosy and comfortable space with as few distractions as possible for your practice. Yin yoga can be practiced anywhere, but taking a moment to prepare your surroundings can make it easier to focus inward and settling into your practice from the start. A thick yoga mat, blanket or mattress is also recommended to make the practice more comfortable.
Props
It can be very helpful to have a few props (blankets, blocks, bolsters etc). It makes the practice more comfortable and restorative. But you don’t need anything specific to join, and you can also use whatever you have available - pillows can replace bolster and books can be used as blocks if you have two equal sized ones.
