Yin Yoga

Yin Yoga is a quiet practice which can help balance the yang aspects of our life. The term ‘Yin Yoga’ was originally termed by Sarah Powers, a student of Paul Grilley. Paul was taught by martial arts champion, Paulie Zink, who had a Taoist approach to yoga, incorporating yin and yang.

The floor-based yin poses target the hips, legs, and lower spine. These poses are generally held for between three to five minutes, though sometimes longer.
