What Is Yin Yoga?
A gentle practice for a deep reset. Yin Yoga is a slow, floor-based practice where postures are held for 2–8 minutes. Rather than targeting muscles, it works deep into the connective tissues — like fascia, ligaments, and joints.
This is yoga for stillness, not sweat.
The Benefits
✨ Deep Stretch: Improves flexibility and joint mobility by targeting fascia
🧠 Mental Stillness: Helps calm the mind through long, meditative holds
🌀 Nervous System Reset: Activates the parasympathetic nervous system ("rest & digest" mode)
💤 Better Sleep & Less Stress: Supports relaxation, recovery, and resilience
Yin vs. Other Yoga Styles
Yin Yoga vs. Vinyasa / Power Yoga
• Passive, long holds vs. Active, flowing sequences
• Focus on connective tissue vs. Focus on muscle strength
• Grounded + still vs. Energizing + dynamic
• Calming, meditative vs. Uplifting, cardiovascular
Who Is It For?
Yin Yoga is perfect for:
- Busy minds & stressed bodies
- Runners, cyclists, and athletes
- Beginners wanting a gentle entry
- Anyone seeking deeper body awareness
You don’t need to be flexible. You just need to be present.
A Practice of Presence
Yin invites you to pause.
To be still.
To observe what arises.
It’s a quiet but powerful practice of surrender — on and off the mat.
