This Beginner Yin Yoga Class will explain the terms yin yang is is perfect yin yoga for beginners. If you have never tried yin yoga before and get frustrated with other yoga classes on YouTube that are too difficult and don’t give modifications, don’t worry, this beginner easy to follow yin yoga class with step by step instructions is actually for beginners. We live in an anxiety producing world where we are pushed to perform, accomplish and achieve. This energy is considered yang. Even a lot of yoga is outwardly focused on obtaining the shape of the postures, getting a good workout and losing weight. This kind of buzzing energy that reverberates throughout our lives is yang energy. With yin yoga, we seek to find balance with yin energy. Yin energy is melting, unfolding, releasing, yielding, centering, easing, internalising, feeling, slowing, surrendering, merging, sinking, allowing, softening, calming and exploring. This beginner yin yoga class will go over the three principles of a yin yoga class: 1. come to your edge 2. stay awhile and 3. resolve to be still. With yin yoga, we release the yang energies of frustration, resistance, agitation and wild ambition that preoccupies so much of our internal and external landscape. We choose the yin energy of patience instead.
