YIN YOGA

SLOW-PACED

Escape the daily grind and rejuvenate your mind, body, and soul with our expert-led, deeply personalised Yin sessions, suitable for people new to yoga or who want to balance intense workouts. 

Yin yoga moves energy through various centres of the body, releasing tension and emotion that causes postural compensation in the body. Therefore, if you want to promote body circulation, increase flexibility and mobility, and reduce stress and anxiety, our immersive Yin session will take you there.

Yin YOGA vs Restorative Yoga

While Yin and Restorative Yoga may seem similar, they have distinct focuses. On one hand, Yin Yoga creates intense sensations and stress on ligaments and joints, whereas Restorative Yoga is more about relaxation and repair.

All forms of yoga promote flexibility and help to decrease tension; however, this type of Yoga takes it to another level by allowing for more time to be spent in each pose, which supports a deeper stretch and, therefore, aligns the body’s energies to prepare for more subtle practices, like meditation.
