Yin Yoga Basic Course

Description

In the course in St. Gallen, the positions are deliberately held calmly for several minutes, usually between 2 and 5 minutes. This allows participants to engage in a deep inner dialogue with themselves and their bodies. On a physical level, the body's tissues change when positions are held for an extended period. The mode of action at a glance: Stretching of muscles and fasciae Increased range of motion of the joints Improved circulation Fluid and lymph drainage Nerve stimulation Emotional and energetic blockages can be released. This practice is particularly effective where we are most tense: Spine Shoulders Hips Support tools such as blocks or bolsters are used to aid the practice. These tools are provided completely. This makes the execution easier and more comfortable. It is not about getting into a pose as deeply as possible, but rather about holding the asana longer. This not only promotes joint mobility but also allows for regeneration, recovery, and deep relaxation. This course is aimed at people who have no prior experience with Yin Yoga. Since it is not easy for everyone to stay in silence and calm for a longer period, the basic course places special emphasis on a gentle and cautious introduction – at a pace that allows room to gradually find silence. Simple asanas are used that are easily accessible and require no prior knowledge. Each class is deliberately repeated several times – because repetition creates familiarity, and familiarity creates security.
