Yin Yoga
- Quiet form of yoga, 75 / 90 minutes
- Stimulates connective tissue, improves circulation
- Postures are held for a long time, 3-6 minutes
Yin yoga is a gentle form of yoga where you hold postures for longer periods of time (about 3-6 minutes) without muscle tension. This stimulates your connective tissue, also called "the glue of the body. Connective tissue supports your organs and has a communicating function towards all parts of your body. So it is important to keep the connective tissue healthy! Holding postures longer creates healthy 'stress' (pressure) on the connective tissue, improving blood flow. Yin yoga is healthy for everyone: if you are very active in your daily life, and also when you are suffering from stress complaints, for example.
