Restorative Yoga Wollongong

Yin Yoga is a relaxing, passive form of yoga for both men & women.

You don't need any yoga experience and you don't need to be flexible.  It is accessible for everyone*(see below) who wants to relax, stretch and calm the mind.

These classes use special props such as bolsters, blocks & blankets to make the yoga poses relaxing and passive, enabling you to stay in the pose for up to 5 minutes.  It sounds like a lot but holding the poses, passively, for a longer period of time allows for a deeper stretch and a very calm body-mind.

No downward dogs, Yin Restorative yoga men guys wollongong wellnessheadstands, demanding or difficult postures in these sessions. In yin poses, students are encouraged to find for a mild, safe & deep stretch. Great for guys as well as the girls!

How does it work?

Yin yoga targets the connective tissue, or fascia, that surrounds the joint capsules and in fact every cell of the body.  In these classes, we work particularly with the ligaments, bones and joints of the body  -  with an emphasis on hips, hamstrings, shoulders and spine.  These tissues are very tough and can get hard and dry over time.  Good news is that with gentle but continual pressure they slowly become pliable and more fluid again enabling free, subtle joints.
