Yin Yoga - Taster Course

Gathering strength and finding inner balance. The focus of these 6 sessions will be our energetic central axis, known in Sanskrit as Sushumna. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), this subtle energy channel is recognized as the small heavenly circulation. On a physical level, important structures are located here - the spine and the fine connective tissue membranes that surround the central nervous system. These are connected to the fascia, bones, tendons, and joints, which are primarily addressed through Yin Yoga. This is achieved mainly through the prolonged holding of asanas, which is characteristic of this gentle and yielding style of yoga. This allows for the release of deeper blockages in the joints and spine, enabling the held life energy (Chi, Prana) to flow again. As a result, the addressed tissues become softer and open up, which is expressed in increased mobility and vitality. Course leaders: Stefanie Stemmler & Stefan Woike.
