Yin yoga combines stretches in held poses with work on mobility. Holding each position gives you time to focus on sensations without constantly moving from one pose to another.
Exercises in this 20-minute class include “Pigeon Pose 1”, “Cat Pose on Elbows with Leg Extended Back” and “Reclining Leg Stretch”. In Pigeon Pose, find a comfortable position for your pelvis and make sure you feel no pain in your knee. You'll finish with a rest lying down.
Follow the class instructions and choose a moderate, pain-free stretch. Use support if it helps you reduce unnecessary effort.
