 MyoYin Yoga is 90 minutes of deep passive stretching in yin yoga stillness combined with soothing self-myofascial massage with therapy balls ('myo' is from 'myofascia': myo = muscle, fascia = connective tissue), ending with a guided yoga nidra meditation during an extended savasana for deep rest.

This class can help you to:

• increase flexibility
• reduce muscle tension
• find freedom in your fascia
• soothe your nervous system
• work on your skill of meditative mindfulness
• feel overall more relaxed and at ease in both body and mind

Expect to learn techniques for self-myofascial release using Yoga Tune Up therapy balls both independent from and in combination with yin postures (poses held passively with little to no effort or movement for between 1-5 minutes each).   Options are always given for all bodies and abilities, and beginners are welcome. 

The room will be warm and dimly lit; dress for comfort.  You're welcome to bring your own therapy balls and yoga props, but some will also be available to borrow or purchase.
