Yin yoga is a form of yoga in which poses are held in a relaxed way for an extended period of time, up to 5 minutes or more. The practice requires little muscle exertion, which helps develop physical relaxation and flexibility. The poses focus primarily on strengthening and loosening connective tissue and joints; they stretch deeper muscles and stimulate our life energy, Chi, Prana or also called Qi. Yin Yoga brings you energy, relaxation as well as space in body and mind.
