Yin Yoga is a contemplative practice that targets the connective tissues of the body such as tendons, ligaments, and the deep fascia network. This practice consists of going into a pose, finding stillness, and then connecting to the breath while holding the pose for 3-4 minutes. Most poses are seated poses similar to stretching poses. This is a great practice for people with an active mind as well as an active body. If you are new to yoga this is a wonderful place to start.
