Free Yin Yoga Workshop
A Night of Relaxation in Trying Times
A New Week Ahead
7.15pm - 8.45pm on Sunday 29th March 2020
You are more than welcome to join us in this online world for our relaxation class.
The workshop is an open level - caters for any level of ability/experience.
☯️ 7.30pm start. Please arrive in the waiting room by 7.15pm so we can start on time ideally!
Final registration is up to 5.30pm to allow time to get ready for the class.
I will be aiming to bring you to a place of relaxation 🧘♂️ to help reduce the stress and anxiety that you may be experiencing with life as we currently know it.❤️
☺️ The poses will be gentle and if you have any underlying injuries or medical concerns - contact me to clarify if safe for you.
☺️ I am making this gentle with modifications (as always) so that virtually everyone can join in.
If you have props you can use them, but will do poses that all you need is:
✅ A mat, a rug or on carpet - with small towels, cushions or bolsters to hand for under knees or feet if you find for example the pose in the picture uncomfortable.
✅ Have extra pillows or cushions for sitting on or lying against. You can never have too many for Yin Yoga! Yoga bricks and blocks if you have them also.
✅ Have some water to hand to drink regularly between poses.
✅ Wear warm enough clothing so you stay comfortable throughout.
✅ A heavier blanket or 2 if you need them - maybe even to use as a prop at points.
✳️ Have a device with the Zoom Cloud Meeting app downloaded to be able to see and hear me and so i can see and hear you.

We all need some time out right now more than ever.
More than one person can be in your room when you link in, so don’t feel that everyone has to be in separate rooms for this - unless you really need to isolate further ☺️
A little more about Yin Yoga (if you don’t know anything about it):
The practice of Yin Yoga is to stress the tissues of the body that we don’t usually access in the more energetic Yang style Yoga practices, such as the connective tissues, ligaments, tendons and bones. It can be to slow down, soften, relax and be mindful, to gain experience of the energy body and to become acquainted with our thought patterns. Ultimately it is to enhance our self awareness, tune our insight and access our own inner wisdom. Yin is about the feeling and involves “unhurried postures unstained by striving” (Sarah Powers).
To practice Yin is to bring forth the values of softening, patience, kindness, compassion, acceptance, surrendering and non striving. It will help people to feel more in a world that is so disconnected. On a physical level, we access and affect connective tissues that we don’t access in our yang practices. The focus on function and feeling rather than on aesthetics, will result in a more positive outcome for students. The poses and stretch sensations can be quite impactful and energetic despite seeking stillness through the longer holds. The time out to meditate and spend time with yourself is invaluable in today’s busy world.
Hope to see you later!
