Yin & Restorative Yoga
3 FRIDAY Evenings 8:00 – 9:15pm
Sept 20, Oct 18, Nov 15
with Sandy LeBlanc & Michele Heuff
This unique combination of Yin Yoga and Restorative Yoga with assists, will ensure that all physical, mental & emotional tension has melted away = BLISS!
Yin Yoga moves you carefully, safely into traditional Hatha postures with support for the joints, holding for time. This cues your nervous system, digestive system, and hormonal system (esp. adrenals) to move toward homeostasis.
Restorative Yoga is also a quiet, slow practice moving into full support with great ease, using many props.
In this practice, we pair Yin and Restorative with Thai Yoga Assists to stimulate fascia & meridians. These assists are offered gently or deeply, depending on your preference.
Cost: $40 + hst, or two or more for $35 + hst
