Yin
Yin is a particularly deep & meaningful practice, which brings you into stillness of the body, breath & mind- something we all seem to crave more in our fast paced & constantly connected world. Yin yoga targets the connective tissues, such as ligaments, bones & joints, as well as the meridians of the body. Yin yoga challenges the practitioner to slow down & be aware of the present moment - lingering in poses & finding stillness of the body, breath & mind. Regular practice helps to enhance the flow of energy, release restrictions & promote healing on a physical & emotional level. Suitable for all levels, with great regenerative potential for the dedicated practitioner.
Slow flow
Slow Flow aims to teach students to communicate with their bodies & access their spiritual core so they can create a deeper relationship with their inner power. This inner power then builds the foundation for students to tap into their mental power to focus, & physical power to keep up with this strengthening yoga practice.
