Yin Yoga (Full Class)
This 53 minute video is a full Yin Yoga practice. What is Yin Yoga? Yin Yoga is a slow, restorative practice: instead of focusing on building muscle and cardio fitness, the focus instead is on connective tissue (tendons, ligaments, fascia) and increasing circulation. Always consult your primary care doctor if you are not sure if a yoga practice is for you. PROPS NEEDED: Yoga mat. Optional: blocks. If no blocks are available, use firm pillows (like sofa pillows/cushions) or folded blankets.
