Unconventional Yin Workshop
Some call it Yin, I call it Restorative Flow. A rose by any other name would still smell as sweet but not all roses are the same. Yin yoga traditionally involves holding a deep stretch for 6 minutes or more.
But if you've done one of my classes you'll know that I do things a little differently.
In this workshop I will discuss ~how moving helps us to relax
~the nervous system and how it relates to this practice
~types of stretching
~the benefits of moving in a stretch
~fascia & the nervous system
~types of stretching and ways to improve flexibility​
Drawing on osteopathic principles, neuroscience and muscle physiology I will go into detail on the benefits of gentle movement in the context of Yin yoga.
​
You will learn:
- how the practice benefits your nervous system and brain, muscles and joints
- different stretching methods
- ideas around comfort and discomfort in the practice
​
The first part of the workshop will be mostly interactive lecture where you will be invited to ask questions. This will be followed by a delicious, unconventional yin practice and relaxation.
​
Join me on this 2 hour journey to dive deep into the theory behind traditional and unconventional Yin methodologies and how they benefit both your body and mind.
​
Great for practitioners and teachers who want to add tools to their arsenal.
