Definition

Yin Yoga is a slow-paced practice focused on long-held, passive floor poses. It supports deep release in the connective tissues and promotes stillness and calm. Sessions are quiet, with poses held for several minutes to allow for gentle opening. The approach encourages turning inward and developing physical and emotional patience.
