✨YIN YOGA DEMO CLASS✨
Monday, September 28
10-11:30am in Topsham
Curious about Yin Yoga? Wondering what it is, or if it’s a class that you enjoy?
Come experience the practice , this Monday, 10-1130am, at the Merrymeeting Adult Ed building in Topsham.
Yin yoga is a style of yoga where passive yoga posture(poses) are held for extended periods of time. Typically 3-5 min., sometimes longer. In these passive postures, muscle activity is minimized, with a focus on stretching connective tissues, such as fascia, ligaments and tendons. We will gently settle into postures, supported by yoga props, while deeply connecting to breath. These longer holds allow the muscles to lengthen passively and for physical releases under the skin to occur. This practice supports overall flexibility, circulation, and range of motion in the joints and ligaments. It also is a practice in mindfulness, as conscious breathing occurs, quieting the mind and supporting nervous system health.
This class is for those new to yoga, as well as, seasoned yogis looking for a deep stretch.
