Yin Yoga targets the connective tissues (the ligaments, tendons, bones, joints & fascia) with the intention to “exercise” the ligaments, to regain space and strength in the joints and unknot muscle fascia (fibers). Connective tissues lose elasticity as we age which leads us to develop more aches, pains and injuries. While you are seated in your chair, Dawn will teach you how to do easy Yin Yoga poses in a safe way to regain range of motion and ease of movement.
