Why not have it all? …Enjoy the benefits of being physically fit AND experience ease in body and mind. Whether you achieve fitness through Pilates, tennis or a fitness oriented yoga practice, Yin Yoga will complement your exercise regimen. Yin Yoga targets deep dense connective tissue – cartilage, ligaments and tendons. Active physical exercise directs circulation and energy to the muscles and superficial connective tissues. In contrast, Yin yoga allows energy to reach the deeper connective tissues. Practicing Yin yoga with muscles cool and relaxed promotes lengthening of connective tissues by increasing the supply of fluids to the joints - making them less dense and more able to stretch. This results in decreased stiffness and greater flexibility. In addition, Yin Yoga calms the nervous system and allows for increased focus of the mind and ease in the body. So, you CAN have it all- strength gained through an active exercise regimen as well as ease in body and mind. Join us for a Yin Yoga practice - Saturdays at 8am at Uptown Body!
