Yin and Vinyasa Yoga
with Liz Stewart, RYT
Friday, July 17, 2009
6:00pm - 8:00pm
Cost: $30


Start your weekend off with Liz Stewart for a deeply relaxing yoga practice accented by candlelight.

The workshop begins with the Yang component of our practice, a 30-minute series of sun salutations emphasizing mindful movement, focus on the breath, muscular effort, and repetition. This is followed by a Yin Yoga practice of long-held floor poses, designed to enhance the Chi, or Prana, distribution throughout the Yin parts of the body - the bones and the connective tissues that bind them together, as well as the meridians, the unseen pathways of energy.

Suitable for all levels of yoga practitioners, Yin Yoga is the perfect complement to the dynamic and muscular, Yang, styles of yoga that emphasize internal heat and lengthening and contracting of muscles. Allow yourself to experience the way Yin Yoga can stimulate and open the body’s meridians for an unparalleled feeling of health, vitality and serenity.
