Yin Yoga with Liz Tyburczy

Yin Yoga is the gentle application of tension and compression to encourage a healthy phase change in the fascia. The use of longer passively held postures work the deep connective tissues of the hips, pelvis and lower spine. Holding postures for an extended period of time gently stretches and rehabilitates the connective tissues that form our joints; the magic in yin is time not intensity. There is a focus on the breath, being present in the moment, relieving tension and letting go.
