About the class
Yin Yoga slows everything down. Most poses are seated or lying, and each one is held for three to five minutes with the support of bolsters and blankets.
The long holds give you time to soften and to practise staying with sensation without hurrying. Gentle guidance and quiet music help the class feel spacious and calm.
Yoga supports general wellbeing but is not a substitute for medical advice. Please tell your teacher about any injuries or health conditions before class.
