YIN YOGA: promotes healing and wholeness by increasing freedom of movement, joint mobility and flexibility. It relieves pain and chronic tension in the hips, thighs, pelvis, spine, neck and shoulders by stretching and rehabilitating connective tissue-countering the shortening and stiffening effects of aging, injuries and lifestyle.

Yin Yoga is rooted in Yoga Therapy, Energy Medicine and Meridian Theory-with insights into unifying chakras and meridians into one energy-conducting system. While Yang Yoga is mostly muscular, Yin Yoga works on connective tissue and fascia, found everywhere in the body. New evidence shows fascia to be the fabric of life-a living crystalline web through which meridians weave their vital life force (Prana or Qi) as healing bioelectric signals.

In this workshop, you'll learn a set of yoga floor postures, holding these relaxed, supported poses for several minutes, while using breathing techniques and body sensing methods to enhance your experience. Enjoy Yin Yoga postures and

Enhance physical freedom, mental harmony and spiritual well-being
Learn how meridians connect with anatomy and physiology
Cultivate energy sensitivity with Qigong exercises
Relax your body and ready your mind for meditation

YOGA NIDRA: Do you love the last few minutes of deep relaxation in a yoga class? Indulge yourself in a longer experience of Yoga Nidra (or yogic sleep). Dive into a carefully guided practice, beyond asana and meditation, that takes you to the core of your being. In this session you will experience how natural kindness arises inside of vast unbounded awareness. Yoga Nidra produces profound and lasting results beyond words.
