The Science Behind Energy and Yin Yoga
1.5 – 2 hour workshop exploring the science behind muscles, fascia (connective tissues) and energy movement in the body.
A fully immersive experience including meditation, an interactive science lesson suitable for all, and a complete Yin Yoga practice designed for you to embody what you’ve learned. For more information on Yin Yoga, click here.
Topics include:
- The difference in muscles and fascia, and exercise specific to both (yang vs. yin yoga)
- How and where lines of energy (chi) move through the body
- A new perspective on samskara and habit patterns
- The purpose and technique of yin yoga – how it’s different and why we need it
Followed by a meditative, all-levels yin yoga practice.
A new type of classroom that uses mind/body/spirit techniques to bring you on a holistic intellectual, tangible, and spiritual journey to deepen and balance your yoga practice.
