About this class

This 14 minute Yin Yoga class is designed to cultivate trust and patience within yourself and within this unfolding journey of life. Begin with an active Yin pose, Puppy Dog, a powerful counterbalance to the constant sitting of the modern world. As you settle into stillness, allow the practice to soften resistance, deepen awareness and invite a steady, grounded presence. Let us know how you feel after this blissful class. Does your body feel more open? Does your mind feel more at ease? Do your emotions feel more steady? You’ll need a bolster or two firm cushions for Trust and Patience Yin.

Alignment notes

Remember the 3 tattvas (truths) of Yin Yoga are: find your edge, find your stillness, hold for time and come out of the pose slowly.
