Featured herb - Thyme

Our yoga classes feature an herb of the month, incorporated into a short tea ceremony at the start of your class.

Yin yoga is a slower-paced, meditative type of yoga practice used to down-regulate the nervous system, which can trigger the fight-or-flight or digest-and-rest response in the body. This practice utilizes asanas (poses) to tap into deep connective tissue, targeting the ligaments, bones, and even the joints of the body that normally are not exercised very much in a more active style of asana practice, like the hips, pelvis, and lower spine. These tissues respond quite differently to being exercised in this yin style of yoga compared to more traditional yoga flows.

An eyes-closed intuitive and subtle body practice, poses are held between 2-5 minutes. Yin yoga is suitable for anybody!

Yin Yoga is also the perfect complement to the dynamic and more muscular (yang) styles of yoga that emphasize internal heat, and the lengthening and contracting of our muscles. If you have only experienced traditional (yang) yoga up until now, you will realize that you have been doing only half of the asana practice after trying Yin yoga!
