Yin Yoga

Yin Yoga is a slow, meditative style of yoga where postures are mainly floor-based. It has become a popular style of yoga in recent years, providing a balance to more active or “Yang” styles of yoga such as Vinyasa Flow. It also provides a much-needed balance for the active pace of modern life.
