Yin Yoga classes promote anti-inflammatory mindsets and usuallly consist of 8-10 different poses, all of which are on the floor and require no exertion of strength, flexibiliy or balance. Each pose is held for about 5 minutes and allows you to become intimately familiar with your boundaries.

No matter your age or ability, you will be able to take any pose that is offered. The main goal of this class is to learn how to position your body in the given poses without increasing agitation. In Yin Yoga, you will be encouraged to look for the edge of your comfort zone, your boundaries. In that spot, you gently apply pressure until you feel agitated by it. From that place of slight agitation, you use your breath and imagination to soothe your discomfort. In this class, you will learn to have your cake and eat it too. You will learn respect your boundaries and allow your feelings to exist.
