Yin Yoga: resting in the present moment (2 hrs)
starts Thursday 07 may 2015 at 11:00
This program is taught in English.
In this program, we will practice long-held, static "yin" poses (gentle backbends, shoulder and hip openers, spinal twists) as a means to investigate our moment-by-moment embodied experience.
Emphasis will be placed on the meditative aspect of the practice and on how we can use our breath and attention to create a sense of ease and comfort in our mind and body no matter what arises at a given moment. No previous yin yoga or meditation practice is necessary. Everybody is welcome.

Style: Yin Yoga
Yin yoga is a modern synthesis of Tao Yin and hatha yoga developed by Paul Grilley and Sarah Powers. In Yin yoga, floor postures are held for a long duration (3-5 minutes). On a physical level, it helps to increase the suppleness in the joints within our natural range of motion. While staying in the positions, we apply gentle pressure on the joints and relax the muscles around them. This way we affect the deep connective tissues and initiate the natural repair mechanism of the body. Energetically, Yin Yoga helps opening the body’s meridian system. It increases our vitality and harmonizes the energetic activity of the body. Go to the Yin yoga page.
